“Before I went to work for him, I wanted to make sure we got along and that our personalities didn’t clash or anything, so we spent a couple of nice days together and played some golf and hung out,” Hayes told The Caddie Network website.

“He’s become not only a boss but a good friend. I attended his wedding and we just have a really cool relationship where when we are off the course, we are off the course and when we are on the course, we keep it very business-like. I think it’s really worked out well.”

Since joining forces, Rahm and Hayes have combined to win on the DP World Tour, PGA Tour and LIV Golf League.

Those wins include victories at the US Open in 2021 and the Masters in 2023.
