Golfer Tom Hoge set the course record at Sawgrass on Saturday, finished tied for 3rd with the VikDaddy, and made himself a cool $1,475,000 this week. Did that change this man? Not one bit, he still flew home in coach...

At least it's not SWA. That looks like a Delta seat which is a step up in and of itself.

Probably booked his flight to the event as a roundtrip ticket.
After taxes and caddy fees, this probably isn't the windfall it seems. It's very expensive to play on tour, and only a handful of payers make jet-set money. This just shows how smart he is with his money.

Well he had to cancel 2 flights because he didn't think he would be there on the weekend and with the play delays.

I spent 500 grand in 3 months a few years ago. I totally understand. Plus maybe no room to upgrade.

only the mega players fly private jets, usually paid for by their sponsors. Not every Tour card member flies on a Gulf Stream, in fact, few of them do.

you wouldnt think that after watching Full Swing. I think Dahmen might have been the only one profiled who didn't fly private.

And of course has to let everyone know he did

Hey set the example maybe do this instead of 50k in 1’s on the floor of a strip club

Hoge doesn't take home the full $1.3 million. Caddy gets about 8%, agent 20%, coach, trainer, expenses 5%. And taxes 45%. So Hoge nets $479k. Still great for a week's work, but there are a lot of hands in that cookie jar.

Are you really under the impression that his agent gets 20%?

Agents get a cut of endorsements bro.
Not prize money.
