Ex-caddie tees off on Allenby after firing

Things have started to get very ugly between Robert Allenby and his former caddie, Mick Middlemo.

It started last week when Allenby abruptly fired Middlemo half-way through a tournament round after an on-course disagreement. A fellow caddie who knows both the men came to Middlemo’s defence, and now, Middlemo is jumping into the fight.

The caddie fought back by bringing up a bizarre incident involving Allenby earlier this year. At the time, Allenby claimed that he sustained a series of injuries after being drugged, kidnapped and assaulted. Subsequent evidence, however, seemed to reveal that his injuries were the result of an alcohol-induced fall.
