Ryan Brehm won the 2022 Puerto Rico Open in an emphatic fashion. The professional was hanging by a thin string and had to finish at a solo second position and win the event to retain his PGA Tour card. He had just one start remaining from his minor medical exemption. However, Ryan did the unthinkable and won the event, securing his playing rights on the PGA Tour.
However, the 35-year-old professional had a special person on the bag last week. Chelsey, his wife, was caddying for him at the event. Clearly, she did a pretty amazing job as Brehm could not have asked for anyone better than her by his side.

Apart from seeing her husband win, Chelsey will also win a good share from her husband’s paycheque. When asked, Ryan, in a funny way, revealed the percentage Chelsey is going to receive from the $666,000 prize money. He said, “Probably the largest in PGA Tour history — 51%.”
