Lexi Thompson's Twitter Profile Pic Lexi Thompson is still on the hunt for a 2020 victory and still in search for a full-time caddie.

Who Will Be Lexi Thompson's  Caddie at the 2020 U.S. Women's Open? Tim Tucker will caddie for Lexi at the 2020 US Women's Open.

Tim Tucker is Bryson DeChambeau's full-time caddie. The DeChambeau-Tucker duo team resulted in a runaway win the Winged Foot, where Bryson bullied his way around the course to win by a comfortable 6 shots. Perhaps Lexi is looking to get similar results at this week's event. Does Lexi Thompson Have a New Caddie? Not exactly.

Golf's Major Championship Trophies: The Masters, The PGA Championship, The US Open, and The Open Championship The 2020-2021 PGA Tour calendar is packed with 50 professional events which includes the four major championships. These tournaments, most commonly referred to as "majors", are highly sought after and are the most watched events on the tour. Throughout the years the events that have been considered to be major championships in a season have been changed a number of times. Back in the 1930s, f or instance, the majors consisted of 2 amateur events, the US Open, the US Amateur, the British Open, and the British Amateur. The line-up of majors in a calendar year has since evolved and no longer includes Amateur championships. Here’s everything you need to know about the four majors on the PGA Tour in the modern majors era. What Are the Four Golf Majors on the PGA Tour?

  2019 US Women's Amateur Four-Ball Champions Erica Shepherd (left) Megan Furtney (right) - USGA/Darren Carroll What is Four Ball in Golf?   Four ball, also referred to as "four ball better ball" (FBBB), is a partner-style format in golf where a side is comprised of a pair of competing partners, each playing their own ball, in either match play or stroke play. In this format, the side’s score is recorded as the lower score between the two competing partners on a given hole. This form of golf is largely referred to as either "best ball" or "better ball". Although "better ball" is the correct term, "best ball" is by far the more commonly used golf term for this format.   Why It’s Called Four Ball   It’s believed that the name four ball simply came about due to the fact that there are four golf balls in play on each hole throughout the round.  The first mention of this format dates back to the R&A’s 1908 edition of their rule book

2 different types of divot repair tools: single-prong (outer), double-prong (inner) As golfers and caddies, it is our duty to make sure we are doing our best to keep the golf course well maintained. Course maintenance is one of the key components of good golf etiquette . Maintenance covers everything from raking bunkers, to repairing divots, and even covers another important part, repairing ball marks (or pitch marks) on the green. To properly repair a ball mark, we use a divot repair tool. What is a Divot Repair Tool? A divot repair tool is a tool used to remove pitch marks, or ball marks, from the putting surface to ensure that putts roll as close to true as possible. The name of the tool is a bit misleading because it technically doesn’t help repair divots. Remember, divots are small chunks of turf you see after completing your golf swing. “Divot tool” is the more widely adopted term and rolls a little better off the tongue than “pitch mark repair tool” or “ball mark repair tool”.

A group of golfers celebrate after completing their round in a scramble outing A scramble in golf, usually a format for outings and special tournaments, is a format where each shot is played from the best option available after each golfer on the team has played. This starts with the tee shot and continues until the hole is completed. As a caddie , I’ve been a part of many tournaments and outings. These tournaments and outings are usually played in a specific format, depending on the types of players involved. Some tournaments weigh heavily on caddies because they can take up a huge amount of extra time or they can cause extra work for caddies. The Scramble format is one that is very caddie friendly, making it highly favored among caddies everywhere. In golf outings and tournaments, a scramble can save significant amounts of time, while also reducing the workload for caddies. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of how to play the scramble format in a golf tournament or outi
