Should caddies correct players in big moments? 2 loopers weigh in

Caddies play a vital role in golf, providing players with advice and support on the course. But what happens when a player makes a mistake in a big moment? Should caddies correct them?

Two caddies, one who has worked with major champions and another who has experience on the Korn Ferry Tour, weigh in on the issue.

Caddie A believes that it is important to correct players in big moments. “If you see your player making a mistake, you have to say something,” he said. “It’s your job to help them play their best.”

Caddie B, however, believes that it is sometimes better to let players figure things out on their own. “You don’t want to over-coach your player,” he said. “Sometimes it’s better to just let them learn from their mistakes.”
