During the 2015 US Open at Chambers Bay, the media revealed that Jordan Spieth’s caddie, Michael Greller, was a former elementary school teacher in the Tacoma, WA area. In the latest Golfing World Profile, we learn more about Michael and how he came to be the caddie of one of the top golfers in the world.
In addition to learning about Michael Greller’s route into caddying, we also get a glimpse of how the relationship is between him and Jordan Spieth. This relationship certainly has a lot to do with Jordan’s success in the 2014-15 PGA Tour season, which ended with a victory at the Tour Championship and the overall FedEx Cup.
Relationships between the player and their caddie is very important. Steve Williams, former caddie of Tiger Woods, who is semi-retired now, has great insight into this matter through many years of experience. We have also heard from the caddies of Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson, Martin Kaymer and Luke Donald in previous features.
