Alright, so you wanna know about this Jordan Spieth fella and the guy who carries his golf bags, huh? I tell ya, these young fellas and their fancy sports… Back in my day, we just worked the fields! But okay, okay, I’ll tell ya what I know about this… this “caddy” they call him.
This fella’s name is Michael Greller, see? Not Jordan, that’s the golfer. Michael, he’s the one luggin’ them clubs around. Been doin’ it for Jordan since, what, 2011? That’s a long time to be carryin’ someone else’s stuff, lemme tell ya. My old man, he carried bricks, now that was work! But this Michael, he seems like a good fella. Stuck with Jordan through thick and thin, they say.
Now, before he was totin’ golf bags, this Michael, he was a teacher! Can you believe it? Taught math to them little middle schoolers. Probably had to deal with a whole lot of sass, them kids these days. He just did the caddy thing on the side, you know, for a little extra cash. Smart fella, findin’ different ways to make a buck. Reminds me of my cousin Betty, she used to sell pies at the market and knit sweaters on the side.
- Jordan and Michael, they’re a good team. Like, peas in a pod, they say. Won a bunch of them big golf games together. Majors, they call ‘em. Sounds important, I guess. Folks get all excited about it. More exciting than a good corn harvest, that’s for sure.
- Jordan, he’s a real good golfer. One of them top fellas. Wins all sorts of tournaments. And Michael, he’s right there with him, every step of the way. Handin’ him the right club, tellin’ him how far to hit it. It’s like a secret language them two have, I reckon.
And this Jordan fella, he’s got another friend, Justin Thomas. Another golfer. Them two, they’re like… well, like two peas from the same pod, but a different pod than Michael’s. They win a lot too. But this ain’t about Justin, it’s about Michael, the caddy.
Michael, he’s more than just a caddy, you see. He’s like… like Jordan’s right-hand man. A good friend, I guess. They say they got a real close relationship, them two. Like family, almost. That’s important, ya know? Having someone you can count on. Reminds me of my old dog, Buster. Always there for me, that one.
And Michael, he’s got a family of his own, too. A wife, Ellie. She used to be a teacher too, for the little ones, kindergartners. Cute little tykes. And they got a kid, too. Michael and Ellie, they got hitched in 2013. Seems like a nice fella, this Michael. Works hard, loves his family. That’s what matters, ain’t it?
So, yeah, that’s the story of Jordan Spieth and his caddy, Michael Greller. A good golfer and a good fella who carries his bags. They’ve done real well together, won a bunch of them golf games. And Michael, he went from teachin’ math to bein’ a top-notch caddy. Funny how life works out sometimes. Now, you got any more questions? I ain’t got all day, ya know. Gotta go make some supper.
And let me tell you, this golf business, it’s a whole different world than what I’m used to. All that fancy talk about “greens” and “pars” and “birdies”… Back in my day, a bird was somethin’ you cooked for dinner, not somethin’ you got on a golf course. But hey, to each their own, I always say. As long as they’re happy and makin’ an honest livin’, that’s all that matters.
And from what I hear, Michael’s makin’ a pretty good livin’. Must be, carrying them heavy golf bags around all day. He probably got some of them “endorsement deals” too, like them fancy athletes do. Good for him, I say. He seems like a hard worker, and he deserves it. Reminds me of when we finally paid off the mortgage… now that was a good day!
So that’s the long and short of it. Michael Greller, the caddie for Jordan Spieth. A former teacher, a family man, and a darn good caddie, from what I can tell. He’s been with Jordan for a long time, and they’ve had a lot of success together. And that’s about all I know about that.
