Tiger Woods’ caddie initially retired after over 40 years on the bag in 2017. Since then, he has had a few small stints with the likes of Adam Scott and has represented him in a few events in 2022 and 2023. Now, he is back with another small stint of two weeks.

Caddie Steve Williams worked with Tiger Woods for around 12 years. The duo were together in 13 of Woods’ 15 major wins. And now, he will be on the bag for Australian golfer Anthony Quayle.

The Australian pro is beginning preparation for the Opening Swing on the DP World Tour.

Quayle shared how grateful he feels to have Williams on the bag, describing the experience as something special.

“I’m just incredibly fortunate that Steve was willing to come and help me out,” Quayle told Australian Golf Digest on Wednesday.

“It’s just a really cool experience. I think having somebody like Steve on your bag, you can’t help but feel you’ve maybe got a 15th club in the bag. There’s a fair bit of experience and golf IQ that comes along with his career. Just really excited about the next couple weeks.”

Since his retirement, Steve Williams enjoys offering guidance to younger players. And because of Quayle’s enthusiasm, it was an easy decision for him to be back.

Williams explained that his focus isn’t on short-term results. He wants the two-week stint to leave Quayle better prepared for the challenges ahead.

“Anthony’s had a lot of experience, and he’s got the great opportunity this year of playing on the DP World Tour,” Williams told Australian Golf Digest of Quayle.

“It’s a first-time experience for him, and he’s got the talent and ability. If I can pass on any information that might assist him in his journey, it’s worth it. I don’t look at it from the results standpoint these two weeks, it’s about what he can get out of me and to encourage him to fulfil his potential.”
