40 years later…

If someone were to ask you to name the first caddie that popped into your head – or the name of any caddie for that matter – our money is on Steve Williams. Are we right?

It’s not surprising given the fact he was on the bag of a certain Tiger Woods during his supreme dominance between 1999 and 2011, not to mention winning the Masters again with Adam Scott thereafter. Well, in a recent interview, the New Zealander confirmed that he “absolutely” plans to stop caddying in 2018, rounding off a fruitful 40-year career at the top of the game.

This makes us wonder: How important do you think a caddie is? How influential is a caddie on a professional’s ability to play their best golf?

Let us know your thoughts.
