Billy Foster misses out on Big Payday after being let go by Matthew Fitzpatrick. Billy Foster, the caddy who had been with Matt Fitzpatrick for nearly 6 years, missed out on a significant payday after being dismissed earlier this year. Foster, who played a key role in Fitzpatrick’s career, including his 2022 US Open victory, was replaced in March following a tough start to Fitzpatrick’s 2025 season. The decision proved costly for Foster as Fitzpatrick’s tied eighth finish at the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow earned him 309th $316. As per the standard 10% caddy fee, this would have resulted in approximately $31,000 for Foster, a sum he now won’t see. Fosters’s partnership with Fitzpatrick had been fruitful with the duo securing two PGA Tour wins and four DP World Tour titles, including the prestigious 2020 DP World Tour Championship. However, after struggling early in the 2025 season and falling to 85th in the World Golf Rankings, Fitzpatrick made the difficult decision to part ways with his longtime caddy. Foster expressed feeling thrown to the gutter after the split, highlighting the emotional side of professional golf, where such decisions can lead to both financial and personal turmoil.
