As soon as Phil Mickelson and longtime caddie Jim “Bones“ Mackay announced they were parting ways, speculation began as to the reason behind the ending of this 25-year partnership.
Well, Mickelson recently sat down to discuss what was behind this decision on the Dan Patrick Show.
The standby answer of “needing a change” is an easy go-to response, but in golf, that’s actually a very valid reason to make a switch of any kind – from a new putter to a caddie.
In a sport where trust and confidence play such a large role in determining how things play out, maybe this is the spark both of these guys need to start winning tournaments again in a new environment.
