Quotes from Scottie Sheffler's caddie Ted Scott (himself one of the GOATS)
This is why Scheffler is different.
The 30-year-old is relentless in his pursuit of greatness, and the money he wins along the way is just a very nice bonus.
Scheffler is now sitting at the top of the career PGA Tour money list, but it’s clear to see that there are many more motivating factors for the world number one than money.
Scott made an appearance on The Gravy & The Sleeze Podcast to discuss Scheffler’s win at the Tour Championship on Sunday.
He responded when asked whether his boss is motivated by money at all.
“I mean, the guy, literally, when I first started working for him, was 19th in the world and he had a white golf bag,“ Scott said.
“I didn’t know him that well, and I asked him. I was like, ‘why don’t you have sponsors’? And he’s like, ‘well, because I just want to play with the equipment that I want to play’. And I was like, ‘okay’.
“And then I remember whenever all the LIV stuff was going on, you know, he was number one in the world at the time, I didn’t know, but I said, ‘they’re probably going to offer you like $250 million to go over there’.
“And he said, ‘I don’t care what they offer me. They can offer me a billion dollars. I’m going to play where the best players are because I just want to beat people’.
