While the talk of the 2022 Masters Tournament has been Tiger Woods, there’s another contender for the most interesting person on the golf course this weekend. That would be Ryan Palmer’s caddie.
Palmer’s caddie James Edmondson has a very specific look and he’s been catching the attention of Masters viewers all day long while, even if the golfer isn’t exactly having an amazing day. Specifically, the caddie is drawing comparisons to Harry Higgs for his let-it-hang-loose style on the course.

The pressure is really on Palmer now to make sure he and Edmondson stay in the spotlight. At the moment, he’s three-over-par and needs to get back on track to ensure he makes the cut for the weekend.
Edmondson is back after briefly missing some PGA action after testing positive for COVID. He has been caddying for Palmer for a long time, though he has also worked with Jeff Bookout and Jason Case. However, he and Palmer have been together on the course for over 20 years.
Palmer finished 34th at last year’s Masters Tournament. Here’s to hoping he can follow that up with another solid performance and we all get to enjoy a bit more of Edmondson and his keen fashion sense all weekend long.
