Ted Scott, caddie for world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, has earned an estimated £15 million this season after a financial agreement with the golfer. Despite Scheffler's earnings falling short of his record 2024 campaign, the 29-year-old has still enjoyed a stellar 2025, winning six events including two majors.
Scheffler's PGA Tour winnings this season total just over £20 million, with the six victories alone worth more than £12 million. Standard caddie rates are 10% of a winner's purse, 7% for top-10 finishes and 5% for other results, though Scheffler may be more generous. The exact terms of their deal have not been disclosed.
Scott, who joined Scheffler in late 2021, previously worked with Bubba Watson for 15 years. Scheffler praised his caddie, saying: 'My career trajectory changed quite a bit when he came on the bag. I went from a guy that hadn't won on Tour to a guy that started winning at a pretty good pace.'
Scheffler's 2025 wins include the PGA Championship, The Open, the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, the Memorial Tournament, the BMW Championship and the Procore Championship. He now turns his attention to the Ryder Cup, where he will represent the United States against Europe.
