Mackay has been Mickelson's caddie since he turned pro in 1992, and the two have shared 25 memorable years together. Most notably, the pair won five major championships and competed in a record 11 Ryder Cups. And the on-course conversations through the years between golf's current longest-running player-caddie relationship have become the stuff of legend.

“There’s speculation whether Mackay, who had double knee replacement surgery in November, will caddie for another PGA Tour pro or take a job in television. “

Perhaps Bones was no longer able to perform his duties?

Probably high time to change something up. Fowler should do the same, change up something, and the most changeable things are equipment, coaches, and caddies.

Lefty will be hard pressed to find a better looper than Bones. Big shoes to fill. Big shoes. Smart move waiting until the offseason to pick a permanent replacement. Class acts, both guys.
