Who is Rasmus Hojgaard’s caddie?

Rasmus Hojgaard is one of the brightest talents on the DP World tour, but who is his caddie?

The Danish star is a multiple winner on the formerly known European Tour and enjoyed a highly successful amateur career.

In 2023, he narrowly missed out on securing a PGA Tour card for 2024 and earning a place on Team Europe for the Ryder Cup.

Hojgaard, the twin brother of Nicolai, has had a few caddies, but now relies on the services of Tom Ayling.

Having turned pro at the beginning of 2019, it only took until that December for the Dane to get off the mark.

He won the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open at just 18-years-old, winning for the first time on only his fifth European Tour start.

Soon after that win, Hojgaard began working with experienced caddie Jonathan Smart in February 2020.

Smart had previously worked with Danny Willett, Matt Wallace, Lucas Bjerregaard and Branden Grace, while he is now on the bag of Cameron Tringale.

Since then, Hojgaard has worked with Ayling. He began caddying on tour when he was 20, and the pair have struck a winning partnership.

Whilst doing his PGA degree, Ayling was asked to caddie for his friend Benjamin Herbert on the Challenge Tour.

And that turned out to be a blessing, as Ayling has gone onto work with Christian Cevaer, Jose-Filipe Lima, Victor Dubuisson and Alexander Levy.

The highlight was working with Frenchman Dubuisson for around a year and a half. He was on the bag for the 2104 Ryder Cup at Gleneagles.

“The Ryder Cup at Gleneagles was my best golfing week ever,” he said. “It doesn’t get much better than that for a caddie or player – one of the highlights of any golfing career.”

Ayling’s most recent major championship experience came in 2023, as he was on the bag for Hojgaard when the Dane missed the cut at The Open and the PGA Championship.
