When it was first posted on Golfwrx that Steve Williams was spotted on a DC-bound flight today, many people assumed that it was bad info or that Stevie was just planning on attending the event. Nobody seemed to think that it was really possible he was on his way to Congressional to caddie for somebody other than Tiger.
That is until the story broke that Stevie would be on Adam Scott’s bag this week. Of course this is going to fire up all kinds of speculation about Tiger/Stevie, Tiger’s health and future in golf, etc.
But the bottom line is that Williams and Scott are friends, Scott had an open bag this week, and once Tiger gave it the OK, Stevie was on his way to Congressional to help out a pal.
Given Scott’s performance at Augusta and his renewed success on the greens with a long putter, you have to wonder if this might be the week that Scott finally breaks through and wins a major.

Hi Derek. I’m sitting in the shop woth Jesse watching the US Open and he asked a good question. What happened to Adam Scott’s caddy this week? Or doesn’t he have a regular caddy? Also, was Stevie on your bag earlier this week?
Scott fired his caddy since 2004, Tony Navarro (formerly Greg Norman’s caddy) a couple of months ago and hasn’t found a permanent replacement yet.
And no, Stevie wasn’t on my bag this week. My caddie on Wednesday was named Maximus and I think he could give Stevie a run for his money when it comes to dealing with all those damn photographers that are always trying to take pictures during your swing!
