Ready to finish year strong, JT-Bones era officially begins at CJ Cup

Another chapter of Justin Thomas’ career begins this week at the CJ Cup, where he and caddie Jim “Bones” Mackay will make their official debut together.

Thomas and Mackay have teamed up before, as recently as Summer 2020, when Thomas’ usual looper Jimmy Johnson was out because of health issues. They even won a tournament together, at the 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational.

But now they’re officially an item, JT and Bones, after Thomas made the announcement following the Ryder Cup. It’s Mackay’s first foray into full-time caddying since he and Phil Mickelson parted ways in 2017.
