    PGA Tour star responds after finding out huge sum Scottie Scheffler’s caddie has earned

    PGA star Ben Griffin has responded in disbelief after finding out just how much money Scottie Scheffler’s trusted caddie, Ted Scott, has taken home in 2025 alone

    PGA Tour star Ben Griffin has spoken out after he discovered that Scottie Scheffler’s caddie, Ted Scott, has earned more than most players on the tour in 2025. It’s been an exceptionally successful year for Scheffler, 29, with the New Jersey-born icon snapping up the PGA Championship and The 153rd Open at Royal Portrush – taking his major tally to four.

    The player-caddie duo of Scheffler and Scott has been formidable since they started working together in 2022. But their payment agreement is largely under wraps, despite Scheffler briefly opening up on it.

    A caddie usually receives 10 per cent of the winning check, seven per cent for a top-10 finish, and five percent for anything else – yet they may also earn a weekly salary.

    Griffin, who has been open on his finances in the past, has won the Charles Schwab Challenge and Zurich Classic this year and has earned around £6m in 2025, one of his most lucrative years ever. He has won just over £11m in his career so far.

    Golf Digest took to X to announce that Scott’s estimated earnings this year, £1.49m, are higher than those of the average PGA Tour player, which stand at £1.3m. Griffin playfully replied: “He [Scott] got me the last two years. I knew I had to step my game up…”

    Scott has pocketed a little over £5.5m over the last two years alone, with the 2025 season still yet to finish. Griffin earned £2.5m in 2024 – a year in which Scott sensationally bagged £4m.

    A fan then asked Griffin why, after two wins on the tour this year, he had not signed up a ‘blue tick’ on X – an extra feature users can pay for on the social media platform to add to give their profile more exposure. Griffin jokingly hit back: “Can’t risk buying a blue check and Ted jumping me.”

    Scheffler has won four championships this year and secured 13 top-10 finishes out of 16 events. His total earnings for 2025 stand at £14m so far.

    Scott’s staggering sum this year would even see him surpass the earnings of two former Masters champions on the PGA money list with past Masters winners Zach Johnson and Danny Willett having banked £655k and £398k respectively.

    Famously, back in 2024, Scheffler took home a staggering £47m with Scott’s earnings standing at around £4m. This would have put Scott around 20th in the PGA Tour’s money list for that year.

    While Scott is currently the highest earning caddie, he’s not the only bag man on tour to boast a more than credible bank balance. Rory McIlroy’s long-term man Harry Diamond and Xander Schauffele’s Austin Kaiser also raked in hefty amounts over the last few years.

    Speaking on the Pardon My Take podcast last year, Scheffler opened up on how he leaves paying Scott to his staff, despite the astronomical sums heading his caddie’s way.

    “We have a girl that helps us pay bills basically because I’m a child and I can’t keep track of all that stuff,” Scheffler said.

    “She quickly took over that job and texts me at the end of each week saying, ‘Hey, this is how much we’re paying Ted?’ I’m like, ‘That’s great.'”

    Scott, however, has nothing but praise for Scheffler and his seemingly unstoppable form. “Time and time again, when people get close, he seems to be able to step on the gas,” Scott said following Scheffler’s triumph at the PGA Championship in May. “He just has that ability to be like, ‘Oh, no, you’re not coming after me, bud.'”
