Golfing and caddie background:
My wife, Jen Kupcho, came up with the idea of me caddying. I was playing professional golf myself until the summer of 2020 when Caroline Inglis asked me if I would be interested in caddying after the Covid restart. I did 5 events with her that year to try it out and then decided in May of 2021 to caddy going forward!
What do you love about caddying?
My favorite part about caddying is having a front row seat to the best golfers in the world day every day. I always wanted to play on tour myself…so to see what it takes and still be part of the action has been really fun for me.
Interesting caddie story:
I played in one AJGA event as a junior golfer and at that tournament I witnessed two hole-in-ones in the same round. The first was in the group behind me (but we were waiting on the next tee) and the second came in my group 10 holes later. Still the craziest thing I’ve seen on a golf course.
