Speaking at his Hero World Challenge, Tiger Woods said he supports players getting increased stipends next year, but he has a stipulation for it.
NASSAU, Bahamas — Tiger Woods is in favor of U.S. Ryder Cup team members sharing more in the immense profits the event generates but insisted it is always been about earmarking the money for charity.
“We allocate funds to build help our sport or help things that we believe in back home because it’s so hard to get onto that team. There are only 12 guys.” Asked what the messaging should be on this issue going forward, Woods said: “Make it clear that whatever money they get will go to charity. I hope they get $5 million each and donate it all to charity, different charities. I think it’s great.”
Now, there’s been considerable pushback on the idea of pay for the Ryder Cup, especially in light of all the money talk in the game and the fact that the European side is not in favor of getting paid and won’t.
