Currently working as an on-course reporter for NBC and Golf Channel, the former Mickelson caddie will be on the bag this week for Matthew Fitzpatrick.
"I was shocked, honestly. I was absolutely shocked," Fitzpatrick said. "I think [Workday CEO] Aneel [Bhusri] sort of helped out with that, as well, and then obviously Bones got in touch. He sort of texted me, and we took it from there really."
"Having seen Matt play for several years now, getting paired with him when I was still with Phil, I knew two things: that he was a really good player and a really good guy," Mackay said. "When I heard through the grapevine that some of the European caddies weren't coming over because of the quarantine issues, and I heard Billy in particular wasn't coming with Matt, I thought, my goodness, I'm going to reach out to this guy because I love to caddie, I still consider myself a caddie to this day who's just doing TV. And I said, 'Hey, if I can help out at all, I'd love to do it.'"
