You’re on your own. We’re not going to play each other.’ And Miles, this morning, reached out to the USGA rules officials to see if he could do this.
And he was cleared by the rules officials to see if the situation presented itself, if he could hand the bag over to his dad to play the role of caddie. Daddy as caddie, up the 18th for this terrific Father’s Day story for this 17-year-old.”“Dad did not know that this was going to happen,” Tirico explained.
“Joe not aware of the plan. And will get the caddie bib from Ramon Bescansa. He might need a tissue too at the end.
These emotions of starting the golf career with Dad in the driving range and with his grandfather, as well, at age two. And now they will get to share the walk of walks, as a 17-year-old in the U.S.
