DALLAS — Dallas-native Scottie Scheffler has been having an amazing season on the PGA Tour so far in 2024.
Scheffler has played in 15 events and has come out on top in six of them, including at the Masters for the second time in his career.
The 28-year-old has also finished Top-10 in 13 of the tournaments he's played in, resulting in a total of $27,696,858 in winnings.
While Scheffler has been putting on a show, he hasn't been doing it alone. His caddie, Ted Scott, has played an instrumental role in getting the World No. 1 at the top of the leaderboard week in and week out.
So, just how much has Scott earned this year on tour as a caddie?
According to a breakdown by Golfweek, Scott earned anywhere between 5% to 10% of Scheffler's winnings in each of the 15 events he played in.
On the lowest end, Scott reportedly made $3,766 at the U.S. Open, which is 5% of the $72,305 Scheffler earned in his T-41 finish.
On the highest end, Scott took home $450,000 at The Players, which accounts for 10% of the $4.5 million Scheffler won in his first-place finish.
After tallying up every event's earnings, Scott has reportedly made $2,633,839 so far on tour in 2024, according to the breakdown.
This number would place Scott in the No. 46 spot, right behind Viktor Hovland, when looking at top earners this year on tour. This means Scott has earned more than Jordan Spieth, Mackenzie Hughes and many more in 2024.
It's been a dream season for Scheffler, despite being arrested prior to the second round of the PGA Championship as he was accused of assaulting a police officer with his courtesy vehicle.
And there are no signs of his dominance slowing down. So, we may see his caddie creep even further up that earnings list before the season is over.
