I read somewhere that a caddie contracts for about ten percent of the winnings and maybe a bit more for a major. If true, there are several millionaire caddies on tour. Many are also pretty good players from the amateur and college ranks.

Sheffler's caddy has made more than 95% of the players this year.
Based on Woods' earnings of roughly $26.7 million on the golf course between 2011 and 2024, it can be estimated that his caddie Joe LaCava most likely made between $1.33 million and $2.67 million during that time.
