Every Golfer Needs a Caddie, Right?

Golfer: Well, I have never played this badly before!
Caddie: I didn't realize you had played before, sir.

Golfer: That can't be my ball, It looks far too old.
Caddie: It's been a long time since we started, sir.

Golfer: I'd move heaven and earth to be able to break 100 on this course.
Caddie: Try heaven, Sir, "You've already moved most of the earth."

Golfer: This is the worst golf course I've ever played on!
Caddie: This isn't the golf course, sir! We left that an hour ago!

Golfer: "Think I'm going to drown myself in the lake."
Caddie: "Think you can keep your head down that long?"

Golfer: “You’ve got to be the worst caddy in the world.”
Caddy: “I don’t think so sir. That would be too much of a coincidence.” 

Golfer: The doctor says I can't play golf.
Caddy: Oh, he's played with you, too, huh?

Well what golfer doesn't like having a caddie on their bag, someone to blame when they hook the shot into the water, or low line it over the green. It easier to look to the person on the bag with a scowl on your face then to admit that you, yourself did something wrong.

However, no matter how many times me and my father argue on the course, shot after shot, he returns day after day and tournament after tournament to be abused.  I don't know if he like the exercise or just enjoys my company when I' not blaming him. I'm going to go with he loves being in the sun and exercising while watching his daughter play golf, even if he has to take the mean looks and the "I told you that wasn't the right club," or the "I'm not listening to your putting advice after what happened last time."

Thankfully, he has never ditched me on the course to carry my own bag and I have never fired him mid-round.  In 2007 Jay Williamson fired his caddie on the 15th hole during the first round of the Canadian Open.

The caddie response: throwing a handful of golf balls into a lake.

You can read the full story by ESPN by clicking here, or read my summary.

• After bad shot over the green on 14, golfer and caddie exchange words and tension grew hotter and hotter
• Caddie gets fired and throws golf balls into lake
• Williamson looked to the gallery and put a new man on the bag
• Williamson doesn't make the cut

Reminds me of another duo who just couldn't make it last. Tiger Woods and Steve Williams.
