Damian Rhodes, a former NHL goaltender for Ottawa, Toronto, and Atlanta , is a caddie for the first time this week, looping for Fred Couples, who is 4-under , seven shots off the lead.
“I told my caddy not to fly out from Connecticut, so he stayed home with his kids,” Couples said. “Damian was either in the right or wrong spot when I heard ‘I’ll caddy for you’ and I turned around and it was him.”
Rhodes, an avid golfer, is good friends with Jim “Bones” McKay, Phil Mickelson ‘s caddy. He said he had a blast being inside the ropes at a PGA Tour event.
“My wife said I can cross it off my bucket list,” Rhodes said.
