Rory McIlroy splitting up with caddie J.P. Fitzgerald led to an obvious question: Who will be Rory McIlroy’s next caddie? Could it possibly be a caddie coming off another breakup, Jim “Bones” Mackay? What about Steve Williams? Or maybe Romeo from Tin Cup?
OK, so we probably won’t see Cheech Marin on McIlroy’s bag, but that doesn’t mean you can’t bet on it. No, really. Within hours of the news of Rory McIlroy and longtime caddie J.P. Fitzgerald splitting, Paddy Power had posted a bet on the matter.
