Summary
Alejandro Tosti’s caddie, Cliff Ellis, quit during the Biltmore Championship after months of tension. Ellis cited late payments and verbal abuse, including being called a “dumba—” and criticized for carrying an umbrella. Tosti denied some of the claims. Ellis walked off the course, leaving Tosti without a caddie. A new caddie was hired but missed the cut. Tosti remains in the FedEx Cup Fall rankings.
Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Caddies quit mid-rounds. Golfers get angry. Pay issues. Verbal abuse. Umbrellas. Bag placement. Short tempers. All in a day’s work.
Discipline is just a word for being yelled at. Self-care is a bag with no umbrella. Balance is a caddie walking away.
Professional golf is just a series of arguments with a side of bad decisions.
Some people’s “work ethic” is just someone else’s nightmare.
