Tiger vs. Ex-Caddie: Whose Paycheck Was Bigger?

August 08, 2011 Celebrity Highlights

Tiger Woods' long-time former caddie, Steve Williams, celebrated his biggest victory ever at Sunday's Bridgestone Invitational. Williams, who teamed up with Adam Scott following his split from Tiger, reportedly took home a whopping $140K thanks to Scott's giant $1.4-million win.

Tiger, who also played in the tournament, finished in the middle of the pack, taking home $58K, and tying for 37th place.

Steve happily told CBS, "Honestly, that's the best week of my life. I've caddied for 33 years... 145 wins now... and that's the best win I've ever had."

Williams, who said he may write a tell-all based on his time toting the bag for Woods, confirmed the split with Tiger was not face-to-face, explaining, "I was told on the phone that we needed to take a break, and in caddie lingo, that means you're fired. Simple as that."
