How Much The Winning Caddie Will Make At The 2025 Masters
The Masters has seen a significant boost in prize money for 2025, with the Green Jacket winner, and his caddie, set to secure large paydays in Georgia


For 2025, The Masters will have a record $21 million tournament purse up for grabs and, on Sunday night, the Green Jacket winner will scoop a $4.2 million paycheck.
Scheffler and caddie, Ted Scott, celebrate at the 2024 Masters
Throughout its history, the purse has risen significantly and, along with the player, the caddie will also be in-line for a rather large payday at Augusta National.
As we saw last year, caddies have the potential to make decent money and, with The Masters, the winning caddie can expect a paycheck of between $350,000 - $450,000.
When it comes to payment, a player will usually give his caddie 10% of a winning check; that means the caddie for the 2025 Masters champion should be taking home a sizeable $420,000 bonus.
Last year, World No.1 Scottie Scheffler won a second Green Jacket and, in the process, claimed the $3.6 million first prize. That meant caddie, Ted Scott, earned $360,000.
The Masters was just one of many trophies claimed by Scheffler in 2024. Reportedly, Scott's earnings stood around $5.3m that year, which was more than the average PGA Tour player and even more than the likes of Justin Thomas, Russell Henley, and Brian Harman.
