Scottie Scheffler’s caddie earns more than Tiger Woods and 220 golf stars

Scottie Scheffler capped a remarkable year by winning the FedEx Cup.

Scottie Scheffler’s caddie has benefitted from the golfer’s remarkable year with earnings that would place him in the sport’s top 25 earners in 2024. Scheffler’s triumph at the Tour Championship on Sunday capped a stunning nine months for the American.

The 28-year-old enjoyed a record-breaking year which concluded with his first season-long championship. He closed with a 4-under-67 for a four-shot victory over Collin Morikawa to win the FedEx Cup and its £19million ($25m) prize, the richest in golf.

It comes after Scheffler secured eight wins and equalled Tiger Woods’ stunning 2006. His victories include those at the the Masters, The Players Championship, an Olympic gold medal and the Tour Championship.

Scheffler’s seven PGA titles are the most in a calendar year since Woods achieved the same total in 2007. And another man making the most of his £47m earnings across the year is his caddie Ted Scott.
