Could never figure out why Ty was worried about losing.

Its odd, because throughout the film, he is a guy who has a devil may care attitude towards life and money. The bet went to 80 grand each, sure (But by the stage where Ty was worried to Danny about losing, it was still 40 thousand) The dude has a number of uncashed checks of 70 and 50 thousand dollar checks just lying around his home and with more around. He obviously seemed like Golf was not that all important to him since he just played for fun and not scored. So where did his worry of losing come from?

Good god, first off it's a comedy. You don't analyze a movie like this. Secondly, he didn't want to lose to Smails because he hated him and his father never liked him either as Ty says earlier in the film. Smails gloated all the time and maybe he did something to Ty's dad if you want to look into the film that deeply.

"To me winning isn't, you do!" - Ty Webb
By this point in the story we have truly found out his hatred of the Judge so he is desperate not to lose to him.
Also
Ty liked Danny and thus wanted him to succeed. He was more worried about Danny losing than anything else.

I agree reecetonks. By this point of the match, Danny took over for Al, and he wasn't gonna get the scholarship. If they won, Ty and Al would give him a share of the winnings so he could then afford to go to college on his own.

Try does not even keep score. The whole idea of having To keep a golf score would take him out of his game. Add the fact that it is a competition -for money - a Try will be a basket case. He excels at carefree, not high stakes.

I thought they explained that in an earlier scene, the one where Ty breaks down and agrees to play against the Judge. He can't stand the judge, and doesn't want to lose to him.
Not about the money.
