ERIN, Wis. (AP) For the second straight year, Aussies Nick Flanagan and Aron Price will walk the U.S. Open fairways together.
This year’s different, though. Flanagan, who caddied for Price at Oakmont last year, will be playing at Erin Hills, while Price will take his turn carrying Flanagan’s bag.
”I definitely owed him one,” Price said.
This most unique of U.S. Open flip-flops has its roots in and around Sydney during the early 2000s, where Price, 35, and Flanagan, who turned 33 on Tuesday, became friendly as they came and went from the junior circuits in Australia.
