TULSA, Okla. - Jim "Bones" Mackay got some assistance unscrewing the eighteenth opening banner from the stick not long after his chief, Justin Thomas, had tapped in to beat Will Zalatoris in a season finisher to come out on top for the 104th PGA Championship at Southern Hills.
It was briefly like this that Bones, 56, dropped the mic for NBC Sports and Golf Channel and got back to assisting for the one player he'd told his better half assuming he at any point had the opportunity to work for, they'd have a discussion.
At the point when Thomas moved toward Bones not long after the 2021 Ryder Cup and requested that he become his full-time caddie, it was a simple choice for Bones. Thomas needed him on the sack for minutes, for example, Saturday night, when a crestfallen Thomas detected that his 4-north of 74 in the third round had cost him the competition.

You're in dispute each and every week we're playing.' "

"I left here in a magnificent mood," Thomas said.
On Sunday, subsequent to taking a couple of keep going putts on the training green, Thomas gave his putter back to Bones. No words were traded, yet Thomas tranquilly took the new glove Bones had rested over an arrangement stick and begun strolling towards the golf trucks that were carrying players and caddies to the main tee. Kids along a railing shouted to him, however his psyche was somewhere else. All things being equal, he slapped the glove against his right thigh. Hard. He trying again later, and afterward a third time. He was in the edge brain to jump assuming any of the unpracticed pioneers floundered.
Story proceeds
It didn't look that way early when Thomas made two intruder in his initial six openings, including a knife off the tee at the standard 3 6th opening that Bones later kidded was "a shanky, barkie, sandy."

Winning majors is routine for Bones, who had won five beforehand during his 25 years on the pack for Phil Mickelson. In any case, he didn't have the caddie prize to show for it.
As point by point in the new book, "Phil: The Rip-Roaring (and unapproved) Biography of Golf's Most Colorful Superstar," Mickelson had a custom where he gave his triumphant banner from 18 to his granddad, a previous Pebble Beach caddie, who draped them on his kitchen divider. Mickelson's most memorable significant banner from the 2004 Masters went there, four months after his demise.
"Mackay got it and regarded that motion, however 19 more Tour triumphs would follow, including four majors and he never got to keep a solitary banner," Shipnuck composed.
"That is a goliath f — you to a caddie," Shipnuck quotes somebody extremely near Mackay. "At the point when Phil wins the Masters, he gets the green coat, the prize, the enormous check, all the magnificence. He needed to take the banners, as well?… For Phil not to follow the practice was enormously impolite."
During the seven day stretch of the WM Phoenix Open, Bones facilitated a supper gathering for players and caddies at his home and as a matter of course he could be inquired, "Where could the banners be?"
