Scott Vail, the caddie for Keegan Bradley, stated he hears it from the bag room attendants on a regular basis. He’ll go there to retrieve Bradley’s cumbersome employees bag, and so they at all times say the identical factor: “It’s so heavy; that is the heaviest one!”
Vail, in fact, already is aware of this.
“I’m like, ‘Say it when he’s round!’” Vail says.
The long-time looper was the visitor on this week’s episode of GOLF’s Subpar podcast and mentioned caddying for Bradley, Ryder Cup preparation and a few of his most memorable moments on Tour, however a big portion of the chat centered on his relationship with the 2025 U.S. Ryder Cup captain.
One (sensitive?) matter: the load of Bradley’s bag. Co-host Drew Stoltz requested Vail to call probably the most pointless merchandise Bradley retains in it.
“Don’t get me going,” he joked. “This may make my blood boil. He’s acquired this, what he calls his, ‘If Issues Go Horribly Incorrect Equipment.’
“He’s acquired contacts, he’s acquired glasses, he’s acquired eye drops as a result of he wears contacts. I’ve by no means seen it used — ever. And it’s like this tin field. Tin field — heavy. And it’s loaded up with stuff, and he goes, ‘That’s if issues go horribly incorrect.’ And I’m like, ‘Effectively, they haven’t gone horribly incorrect but? When can we do away with this?’”
Vail stated Bradley is fast to level out his caddie is actually robust sufficient to deal with carrying the bag — however Vail has a rebuttal.
“Have you ever heard of the straw that broke the camel’s again?” Vail stated. “It was a straw; let’s do away with that stuff — we don’t want that stuff. I don’t even know what’s in it. I do know there’s contacts, there’s this little equipment, first-aid equipment. I don’t know, do I acquired to do CPR when issues go incorrect? That’s the one factor that’s within the bag that I don’t even know why it’s in there.”
