Who Is Bryson DeChambeau’s Caddie?
DeChambeau's caddie situation has changed over the years and, in this piece, we take a look at his current bagman
Bryson DeChambeau is one of the most recognizable faces in the game of golf, with the American claiming a US Open title and multiple PGA Tour and LIV Golf victories.
Throughout most of that success, DeChambeau had Tim Tucker on the bag, with the American part of all eight of DeChambeau's PGA Tour victories. However, the pair split in 2021 and, following a stint with Ben Schomin, Cobra Golf's Tour Operations Manager, DeChambeau now has Gregory Bodine on the bag and has done since mid-2023.
The pairs first outing together came at LIV Golf Tulsa in May 2023, just a week out from that year's PGA Championship. Since the duo started working together, though, they have enjoyed a number of successes.
During the 2023 LIV Golf season, DeChambeau claimed two titles, with the highlight being his performance at LIV Golf Greenbrier. Firing a 61 on Saturday, he backed it up with an incredible 58 on Sunday for a six stroke victory. Not done there, DeChambeau won LIV Golf Chicago alongside Bodine in September.
Regarding Bodine, he has been involved in golf for the majority of his life and is the cousin of PGA Tour players Andrew and Michael Putnam. Part of the Biola University golf team, Bodine worked with PGA Tour star Tony Finau from 2014 - 2020, with the duo picking up one Tour title and multiple top 10s.

Prior to his caddying duties with DeChambeau, Bodine helped launch Evergreen Golf Club in Seattle. The club is a premier indoor golf facility and was opened in conjunction with former Seahawks receiver, Jermaine Kearse. To this day, we believe Bodine is still involved with running the facility.
Speaking about working with DeChambeau, Bodine told Cascade Golfer: "I have a blast with him. At the core, he is a very, very, very good person. One thing that makes me a good caddie is being good company, honestly. When you’re around someone 12 hours a day, you’d better keep things light, keep things funny. To not be annoying … I think that’s a job well done.”

Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4.
