"From St Andrews to Augusta: The Timeless Role of the Caddy" In 1881, at the iconic Golf at St Andrews, a tradition was born. A golfer's trusted companion, guide, and confidant - the caddy. Like a missing piece in a jigsaw puzzle of golfers on Prestwick golf course in Scotland circa 1914, they complete the picture of every golfer's journey. As Dean Martin crooned "That's Amore, " caddies were there with their players through thick and thin. Just like the Blackheath Goffer who knew every twist and turn of the game. They became an integral part of each swing and putt. Even as Cadillac introduced its stunning XLR-V Roadster in 2007, painted red like passion itself, it couldn't overshadow the significance of a caddy by your side. Their knowledge and dedication were as solid as Wilmot Lunt's novel "Grit. " The grandeur continued at Augusta National Golf Club House around 1935 when golfers sought guidance from their trusty companions while Teddy bear played his own round nearby. Whether it was choosing clubs or preparing to strike that perfect shot, caddies stood ready with advice and support. Fast forward to modern times; even amidst luxurious vehicles like Cadillac Escalade Platinum (4x4) in sleek black metallic finish or classic beauties like Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Raindrop from 1958 painted vibrant red - nothing could replace the value brought by these unsung heroes. Choosing a club may seem trivial compared to driving such magnificent cars but remember that behind every great golfer is an exceptional caddy who knows just what club will make all the difference. So let us celebrate these silent champions who have witnessed countless victories and defeats on lush green fairways worldwide. From historic courses to contemporary tournaments – they remain an indispensable part of this beautiful sport we call golf.
