Caddies are as much a part of the tradition at the Masters as the pink azaleas, pimento cheese sandwiches and the Green Jacket.
Did you know that for 46 years, Augusta National Golf Club provided Masters participants with a caddie?
In 1982, Craig Stadler won the tournament with Ben Bussey on the bag. Little did anyone know at the time that would mark the end of an era, as seven months later, on Nov. 12, 1982, the club announced that professional golfers would be allowed to bring own caddies.

Caddies at the Masters are easy to spot. They are decked out what the official Masters.com website describes as the “tuxedo of all caddie uniforms”:
A bright white, long-sleeved jumpsuit, with the green-outlined Masters logo on the right breast pocket, the caddie number on the left breast pocket and the player name on back – all Velcroed to the white fabric – topped by a green ball cap.
