NAPLES, Fla. – It’s the end of an era.
If you’re an LPGA fan and never liked seeing caddies line up players before a shot or putt, you can rejoice.
This week’s season-ending CME Group Tour Championship marks the last time you will have to endure it.
When the LPGA resumes play in its season opener at the Diamond Resort Tournament of Championship next January, the new Rules of Golf forbidding caddies from aligning players will be in effect.
Brittany Lincicome is one of the biggest stars still relying on her caddie to line her up, and she’ll be following that practice to the bitter end this week, with Missy Pederson making sure she’s aimed correctly.
