Scottie Scheffler to Use Second Fill-In Caddie at BMW Championship

Scottie Scheffler is navigating the FedEx Cup playoffs with a change in his support team. Ted Scott's absence due to a family emergency has led to Michael Cromie, who usually caddies for Chris Kirk, stepping in for the BMW Championship. This follows Brad Payne, a PGA Tour chaplain, filling in for the final round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship, where Scheffler finished T3. Cromie himself is an accomplished golfer, having earned All-American honors at the University of Georgia and winning the North & South Amateur in 2014. Scheffler aims to continue his strong season, where he already has four wins, including two majors, and maintain his lead in the FedExCup standings. A strong performance at the BMW Championship is crucial as FedEx Cup points are worth quadruple their regular-season value, determining the top 30 players who will advance to the Tour Championship.
