The Caddie Network’s John Rathouz catches up with two veteran caddies to preview the 122nd U.S. Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass.
John “T-Bone” Crowley has been a caddie at The Country Club for 58 years; and Tommy McCusker has been a caddie there for 17 years. Together with Rathouz, and while puffing on cigars in the Brookline caddie room, they discuss the following topics ahead of the 122nd U.S. Open:
- Caddying for tour pros ahead of the U.S. Open and what advice they’re giving them
- An on-course preview of some of the course’s signature holes and how to play them
- Two important keys to playing well: finding the fairway and keeping the ball short on the approach
- Why playing conservative—especially when considering going for the pin—will be the smart play
- What a good score will be and why the pros should be comfortable playing for par
