The Australian went through somewhat of a resurgence in 2023, so who is Jason Day’s caddie?
His second-place finish at the 2023 Open means he has now filled the runners-up spot in every major championship, but it was a largely positive year, nonetheless.
Born in 1987, Day rose back into the upper echelons of the world rankings and won for the first time since 2019.
And on his journey to become one of the biggest names in golf, the former World No. 1 worked with one caddie.
Now, though, he has a man named Luke Reardon on the bag. Here’s how he got there…
• Who is the caddie of Justin Rose?
• Who is Keegan Bradley’s caddie?
Day’s former caddie was Colin Swatton. The pair were together until 2017 after Swatton took him under his wing when Day was 12-years-old.
He was the golf coach at Kooralbyn International School in Australia before becoming Day’s long-term bagman.
At the time of the split, Day said it was to preserve their personal relationship.
“I never wanted it to turn into a toxic relationship where he’s taken me from where I am as a 12-year-old kid to where I am today, and I’m not talking to him anymore,” Day said.
“I was worried if I kept it going, it was going to head that way, and I love him too much to have him not in my life because of how special he is to me.”
• Who is Patrick Cantlay’s caddie?
• Who is Min Woo Lee’s caddie?
Since then, Jason Day has worked with several temporary caddies, but now he has settled on one looper.
Who is Jason Day’s caddie Luke Reardon?
At present, Luke Reardon is Jason Day’s caddie.
From Stanthorpe, Queensland, Reardon emerged as part of Day’s team in 2017 and is the PGA Championship winner’s former high school roommate.
They both attended and graduated from Hills International College in Jimboomba. The duo were also childhood friends.
