    Is there still a “post of the year” thread? This is classic.

    He's not a full-time caddy, doesn't travel, has no expenses, doubtful he was expecting 10% and read somewhere he wasn't. The issue is the differential between the 2k bonus and the 10% (130k)

    I hate Skechers anyway so am instituting an immediate ban

    I don't know that the caddie expected 10%. But maybe he thought he get more than .4%Yes, he knocked back the extra 15k when it was eventually offered. Maybe if he got 20k at the time he wouldn't have batted am eyelid at it. But maybe he decided that he been trodden on and is making a bigger deal out of it now.

    I want to patent 'Kuchar 2024' badges and bumper stickers.

    But, on second thought, I don't like my chances of getting paid any royalties.

    And speaking of Kuch, I got my first pair of Sketchers for work, and my boy they are comfy. Do yourself a favour and check them out!

    Will you accept an unspecified percentage?

    I get that all the time at work.

    What should have happened ....
    'We are missing $250m in the monthly assets report.'
    'Did you include the pre-Y2K archived transactions?'
    'Oh. That matches up now.'
    'That will be $25 million, thank you.'

    Yep. Remember when Horschel, Stenson and Snedeker were reported to give the full 10% of the FedEx bonus when they won the cup?

    No brainer and in reality I would expect that Kuchar might be costing himself more in sponsorship $$

    Kuchar V Caddie, you saying a local Mexican is worth less than a full time caddie who is probably on a retainer with expenses paid?

    You should just go back to saying “dibs” in the pro shop threads
