For me it was very hard to tell him that and it took a lot for me."
That's not entirely true... When asked if the outfit made her look fat he quoted Al Bundy and said lady, it ain't the outfit that makes you look fat, it's THE FAT that makes you look fat. 😎
I like Lee Westwood's take on caddies. He basically stated that he knows how to play golf, and now just has his wife caddie for him on the PGA tour just for good company.
I don’t find caddies compelling. Let the players use range finders. Have volunteers rake bunkers and replace divots. Jack basically told the caddie to keep quiet. In the 60s many events had drawings for the caddies match up
So you're ok with her blaming her caddie for her poor performance? That's pretty awful, and really humiliating to the caddie. Maybe Korda just wanted to hang with her boyfriend and thought nothing of depriving the caddie of their livelihood. Who cares, right?
@@johncoll4456 Could also be a pay issue. Lady pros make less so I figure having a full time caddy would be harder, especially if youre not staying atop the rankings
Pathetic how golfers think the caddie is problem. Anyone who golfs knows that the majority of your career that builds before you play pros is spent without a caddie and you did just fine. But once you feel entitled because someone else is carrying your bag and grabbing the club you throw in anger, you take zero responsibility for your actions.
@@Radioheader Your caddy cannot force you to do anything. They help you read the course, go over your shot play and help with club selection. The golfer has the final say on everything. To blame the caddy on anything is immature and your just looking for excuses.
Its not the caddies fault your swing isnt working well today. Thats the main reason i fell in love with golf. There isn't any my receivers couldnt get open or my line didnt block today or our pitcher sucked today or the coach doesnt know what hes doing. Its just you and your swing. Put a good swing on the ball and you will get good results. Put a bad swing and get bad results. Its always 100% your fault.
He heated up the chicken noddles in the morning and she wanted the beef ones...that's a big no-no! Golf's hard, I can't even make contact with the ball half the time at the driving range.
Another good one is which pga pro had his caddie quit during a round, only to be replaced by a woman volunteer in flip flops: Bryan Struard (I think), at the Barracuda (Reno/Tahoe) Open. About 2016.
So her boyfriend is standing in her peripheral vision, moving around while she’s addressing the ball. He better hope she’s not distracted and hits her shots on the mark or he loses his job, and his girlfriend.
Rumoured that he said listen to me and that wouldn’t have happened she said listen to me put my bag down your fired. No wonder she’s not married sounds like a right little brat
Ask Lee Westwood. His fiancé has just carried his bag to two straight second place finishes one at The Players Championship. She literally and admittedly “just carries the bag”. And cleaned his balls 😂
You could be right. However, for that round she was 5-over with the proper caddy on-board, and 1-under with her boyfriend, er, on the job (as it were), so she may have had a point.
I know... Being young... not needing a job and hitting golf balls all day every day is like sssoooooo like stressful. Like oh my god... it’s ssoooo totally awesome you understand. Like totally.
😂 she makes millions of dollars every year golfing...what the hell is there to be stressed about? And even if she was stressed, mad, not having a good time, whatever it don’t matter that’s lame as hell to act that way. Firing a caddie mid round is a weak move and shows weak character. She needs that pedestal she thinks she’s on kicked out from under her, preferably while face planting. lol She has final say on everything. Any shot she takes she has to take responsibility for, seeing how she is the one swinging the club and all. It’s just very unprofessional to do that. She should have waited until after the tournament and did it in private. To do that in front of thousands of people is extremely embarrassing for the caddie, that’s his livelihood. She could have ruined his chances to caddie for others.

"It does tend to be very much a caddie carousel on the LPGA Tour," Golf Channel reporter Karen Stupples said, "and it's a bit of a running joke, especially among the top caddies."

Alot of jokesters but if its erking her then the caddie shouldn't doubt her judgement so much lending positive opinions is a must she has a right to her mental health.
I don’t think that should have been allowed to be honest. He could have scoped out the back nine while she was on we front. Checking pin positions and how certain outta break. All the stupid rules in golf, you’d figure that would have been one of them.
Given that any good caddy will walk the course early, following the greenkeepers round for pin changes and figuring wind conditions/directions etc. then the idea of a caddie “scoping out” the back 9 is a wee bit daft.
Um, disagree. There surely has to be some kind of history here. And just like how in the real world it's really not cool to fire somebody mid-shift (unless they committed an actual crime) there is no admirable way to fire a caddy mid-tournament, let alone mid-round. Poor form. But it was 8 years ago. Hopefully things worked out and they're on good enough terms today.

I heard her last words to the caddie were "stay away... or you'll pay... listen to what I say"
Caddie accidentally called her Nelly.

Jessica Korda asked her caddie if her outfit made her look fat and the caddie said "Yes it does" and he was fired immediately.

Uptight pros. They hit the shots and have the final say on the club. But its always someone else’s fault.

It was all she could do to take attention away from herself and to keep her sponsors happy.
If I were the boyfriend, I would say carry your own bag. Consequences.
Golf is a fun game
I heard the caddy gave her 2 holes notice before quitting the round.
Boyfriend looks absolutely terrified.
Jessica walked so that Nelly could run lol
So her boyfriend is standing in her peripheral vision, moving around while she’s addressing the ball. He better hope she’s not distracted and hits her shots on the mark or he loses his job, and his girlfriend.
Must of been that time of the month
Not often you see a caddy just walk away when their golfer is addressing the ball getting ready to take a shot. Her boyfriend seemed abit clueless.
I agree that he should not move at that moment. Seems doubly strange since he was also a professional golfer at that time, Johnny DelPrete.
What he was doing was helping the golfer line up her shot before she swings. This happens more often than you might think.
It would have been a two-stroke penalty if he had stayed there.
He was lining her up. He can't stand directly behind her when she's hitting.
Righto Robert Allenby 😂😂😂
Rumoured that he said listen to me and that wouldn’t have happened she said listen to me put my bag down your fired. No wonder she’s not married sounds like a right little brat
