Who is Blades Brown’s caddie?

Blades Brown holds an extremely exceptional resume as an amateur golfer. But when he joined the PGA Tour this season, he needed someone with experience whom he could rely on through his journey by his side. So he stuck with his existing caddie, Brett Swedberg, who had been with him since the fall of 2025.

Swedberg has seen Brown rise through the ranks from the world #1 amateur golfer to a professional player. Now, he is accompanying his boss in his rookie season on the PGA Tour. But that’s not the only experience he has had to show.

The veteran caddie also came with a lot of experience working for a number of former professional golfers. Swedberg has caddied for the likes of Max McGreevy, Adam Schenk, and Ryan Moore, and also worked as an assistant coach. Moreover, the 44-year-old has also played in seven Korn Ferry Tour events himself. Although he only made the cut twice before giving up his dream of professional golf.

While he has enjoyed his work as a caddie, he also takes his role of coaching seriously. In fact, Swedberg also works as a Consultant for his brother, Brady’s, institution, which is called the Swedberg Golf Academy.

He has also worked as the Director of Golf and men’s head coach at Arizona Christian University. In June 2016, he took up the role of the Men’s Assistant Golf Coach at Grand Canyon University. Through his coaching, one of the students reached the NCAA tournament in their first season. He also assisted in coaching a two-time WAC Player of the Year.

While his profile as a caddie and a coach is well established, he doesn’t let it reflect in his personal life. In fact, his social media shows that his life outside the fairway is a lot more about things other than golf.

Brett Swedberg’s life when he’s not carrying the golf bag

Away from the fairway, you can see a completely different side of Brett Swedberg. And it’s less about golf and more about family, friends, and basketball. Yes, Swedberg loves basketball, and he isn’t afraid of showing it off on his Instagram.

We’re not necessarily talking about the NBA. He likes to attend local basketball games to support young players. Swedberg has shared quite a few videos of their games recently on his personal social media account.

When he’s not on the local basketball court, the veteran caddie is out enjoying time with his family. He, his wife Seneca, and their children love to take trips to the mountains, beaches, or even parks. The group doesn’t mind going on long drives as well. The Swedberg family also loves dressing up for pictures and giving awkward expressions to make the snaps funny.

They have collected many memories over the years. From Swedberg’s daughter playing the piano, the birth of their son, to even their wedding pictures. All of them have some unique characteristics.

Even the anniversary carousel that Swedberg shared, which included pictures with his wife, had some interesting pictures. And as he captioned it, “It was game over the minute I laid eyes on you. Happy Anniversary my love!!! 😻.” As their wedding photo showed, the couple live an energetic and happy life.
