Tough question to answer here- in terms of % caddie payouts, where does this one rank ~.4%?
I had previously stated that I gave Kuchar kudos for offering the 15k additional, but that didn’t come from him and had nothing to do with it, so it was just the 5k from Matt.

I was speaking to a post earlier that said it would be impossible to find a pga tour winner that didnt give 10%. That has zero fact behind it. If I was Kuchar, would I have given more? Probably. Jerry Seinfeld said last year in an interview, no matter the bill or the service, he has to tip 100% because social media is that terrible with these "causes".
I also used the example earlier. Lets say Phil Mickelson goes into a restaurant. The server comes in and literally calls him a piece of ****, is rude, gives terrible service, etc. He STILL has to tip and tip big, because all it takes is the photo on social media and a line saying Phil is a cheapskate and the mob goes nuts.
If I offer you a job to help me setup a cool app. I tell you that you will get 5k for it. If it all of the sudden starts to go viral, I will give you 7k. And if it goes nuts and becomes #1 in downloads, I will give you 10k. All of that happens and I give you 12k as a bonus.
SHould you then be in the right to all of the sudden say "I deserve 50k because you made more money"? I also am the one that took all of the cost risk, because it could have been zero.
