Scheffler Would Reject $1 Billion LIV Offer, Caddie Says

Summary
Ted Scott said Scottie Scheffler told him during LIV Golf’s early recruiting push that even a $1 billion offer would not lure him away from the PGA Tour.
Scheffler’s reason, Scott said on PGA Tour Radio, was competitive rather than financial: he wanted to play where the best players are because he “just want[s] to beat people.”
The anecdote dates to 2022, when Scheffler had just risen to world No. 1 and Scott guessed LIV might offer him about $250 million.
Scheffler’s stance comes despite little financial pressure: he recently passed $130 million in PGA Tour career earnings, about $10 million more than Tiger Woods, and made nearly $31 million in 2026 alone.
