The Secret Tour Caddy: A Year in the Life of a Pro Golf Caddy | Pitch Publishing

The Secret Tour Caddy pulls back the ropes on a full year of DP World Tour competition, seen through the eyes of a veteran caddy who has spent a lifetime learning the ropes of professional golf. From crowded practice greens to high-pressure Sundays, the book captures the sounds, rhythms, and rituals that quietly run the tour.

What makes this book stand out is its grounded, first-hand perspective. The narrator describes not just the trophies and headlines, but the everyday work that powers a player's performance: strategy in the bag, timing with coaches, and the logistics that keep travel from breaking a well-tuned team.
