Jordan Spieth's caddie and former sixth-grade teacher, Michael Greller, has likely made $2 million this season. Yeah, just let that sink in.
Greller's earnings would rank 39th on the PGA Tour money list, as determined by The Big Lead's Michael Shamburger—not a bad deal for someone who left a steady career to gamble on the then-top-ranked amateur golfer.
Based on the $50,0000 starting salary for Dallas teachers reported by the Dallas Morning News, it would take Greller decades to make as much as he was estimated to have made in 25 PGA Tour events with Spieth.
