After caddie quits, Willett searching for new one
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Former Masters champ Danny Willett showed up to The Players Championship with a new caddie on the bag.
Willett confirmed to GolfChannel.com Wednesday that longtime looper Jonathan Smart, who was on the bag for last year’s breakthrough win at the Masters, abruptly quit after the first round of the RBC Heritage last month. The Englishman “had to pull in someone” to caddie for the second round, but shot a 78 to miss the cut.
