episode 22: Caddie Perspectives with Joe Skovron
People of the universe…we are stoked to bring you this new episode of Chasin’ Birdies. Today’s guest is well-known on the PGA Tour. Not because of his driving distance or putting skills but because of his being a top-tier caddie for Rickie Fowler and Tom Kim. Joe Skovron joins us today to talk about golf..and more golf.
We open up the episode by diving into Joe’s early career and how he linked up with Rickie Fowler. Joe tells the story of him getting the nod from Fowler and how the relationship just took off from there.
We touch on what it was like caddying for Rickie and hone in on some pretty cool moments. Joe tells us what it was like caddying for Rickie during his first PGA Tour career win and the mood at the 2015 Players Championship.
Getting to know how the caddie world works, Joe tells us stories on prep and how it differs from a major to a normal tournament. Does it really differ? We switch over to some talk about his new role with Tom Kim and how he’s excited for this opportunity.
The show ends with our standard Tap-In segment presented by Bettinardi Golf, where we ask Joe 4 questions that demand his quick reply. Tune in for this one, golf lovers. We know it will keep ya hooked!
