FIFE - World No 1 golfer Tiger Woods goes into The Open at St Andrews amid speculation that his caddie Steve Williams could be about to walk out on him.
After losing his wife, Elin Nordegren, and his coach, Hank Haney, this year, Williams’ departure may prove to be another blow for Woods.
Haney, who had been Woods’ coach for the last six years, resigned in May.
Woods had criticized Williams after the US Open last month, but the caddie has expressed his own displeasure with his employer’s performances since the issues in his private life were made public.
“The circumstances of 2010 are obviously well publicized and that has made it very difficult,” The Daily Express quoted Williams, as saying.
“I understand Tiger has got a lot of problems. I’m used to seeing a lot of good golf. When you’re not seeing that for an extended period of time and not seeing a lot of improvement, that’s what is frustrating,” he added.
Williams has carried Woods’ bag since 1999, and has earned millions of dollars from the association. (ANI)
