David Robinson has a keen eye for the technical aspects of golf that come with experience as a golfer; he became professional on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2004. He then shifted his ways to become a caddie after 8 years, and he seems to enjoy it pretty well.

When it comes to his net worth, it remains unknown; however, Jason Kokrak’s estimated net worth is 17 million USD, and Robinson has contributed to some of his greatest victories, which must have earned him a considerable sum until now.
