Three months later, El Tucan still harbors some strong feelings towardMatt Kuchar.Speaking through a translator to Golf.com, David Ortiz the Mexican caddie known as El Tucan said that he was paid $5,000 by Kuchar for a weeks worth of work last November at the Mayakoba Classic. That week Kuchar won for the first time in more than four years, a $1,296,000 windfall that pushed his career earnings over $46 million.Ortiz told Golf.com that their arrangement was for him to be paid $3,000 for the week, with an additional (and unspecified) percentage of Kuchars winnings.Though he was eventually offered another $15,000 bonus, for a total of $20,000, he declined, saying that he still felt underpaid. He was seeking $50,000.Matt is a good person and a great player, Ortiz told Golf.com. He treated me very well. I am only disappointed by how it all finished.Former PGA Tour player Tom Gillis was the first to shine light on the caddie payout on Twitter, but when asked about it at the Sony Open (which he eventually won), Kuchar said: Thats not a story. It wasnt 10 percent. It wasnt $3,000.Ortiz told Golf.com that he wrote three emails to Matt Kuchars agent, Mark Steinberg, asking for a fair amount for his fill-in role as Kuchars caddie. Steinberg replied only once, on Jan. 29: I am out of the country. What Matt has offered is fair.
