Steve Williams served as Tiger Woods’ caddy from 1999 to 2011, during which Woods dominated the PGA Tour, won 13 of his 14 Majors, and earned over $88 million.(Caddy earned 8.8 million) Williams recently wrote a book called “Out Of The Rough” about his time with Tiger, and he was very critical of Woods, of whom he once said he wanted to “shove something up that black arsehole.”:mjdrinking:
Excerpt from the book.
One thing that really pissed me off was how he would flippantly toss a club in the general direction of the bag, expecting me to go over and pick it up. I felt uneasy about bending down to pick up his discarded club – it was like I was his slave. The other thing that disgusted me was his habit of spitting at the hole if he missed a putt. Tiger listened to what I had to say, the air was cleared and we got on with it – his goal was to be the best player in history and my goal was to keep working as best I could to help make that happen.
Deadspin says
For one, picking up clubs and putting them into a golf bag was Williams’ job. That’s what a caddy does. He was paid handsomely for his services, earning at least 10% (maybe even 15%) of Woods’ earnings. Williams even had a long-running endorsement deal with Valvoline. The outsized amount of money that Williams pulled in doesn’t excuse Woods for being a dikk (which he is, says everyone) but it’s remarkably whiny and myopic to draw a comparison between making a shytload of money at a demanding job to being a slave.
Have Australian cacs as caddies who compare working for you as slavery brehs.

he's more bitter about Tiger not being tiger anymore than the man himself. It got him fired and robbed him of all the perks of being Tiger's caddy....
. Dude didn't even have to walking from hole to hole probably got to drive the cart and smash Tiger's hand me downs. He even getting paid on this bs book he got out.
and said he wasn't racist. Tiger got no spine and probably would say the same even after this guy made ten million plus and compared it to slavery.
Fukk that pga money. I want that book deal guap and that valvoline guap. And all the other sh1t he got just for being Tiger's caddy.
