Golf Club Communication

Dear Members,

We are excited to introduce to the Sawgrass Membership that we now offer the option to upgrade to a caddie service starting this Saturday.  CaddieMaster, Inc. will be managing our caddie program.  In the beginning, we will be using the same caddies as TPC Sawgrass and Tom Keeley, caddie master at TPC, will also be our caddie master.  CaddieMaster, Inc. is located in Ponte Vedra Beach, and is the leading provider of caddie services. Their team consists of more than 2,000 caddies and a client list that includes Whistling Straights, Pebble Beach, Pinehurst, Sea Island, Ocean Forest, Frederica, Laurel Valley, to name a few.

From the beginning, Caddies have been an essential tradition to the game of golf.  Players who walk with a caddie enjoy an experience like no other as it creates an added benefit to the camaraderie and leisure time spent on the golf course.  We assure you, this will be the case at Sawgrass as our members and guests now have the option to take a caddie.  Our Guests from the Marriott Resort and other unaccompanied groups will be required to have at least a forecaddie in each group during the season. (October -May). This requirement will improve pace of play and the Sawgrass experience.

Below are the details to the Sawgrass Caddie Program:
Any and all caddie reservations must be made a minimum of 48 hours in advance through the Golf Shop.  Any Caddie reservation not cancelled within a 12-hour window of their tee time will incur a charge of $34. Each Caddie’s responsibilities will include greeting each golfer in a courteous and professional manner, providing a description of each hole, spotting tee shots, providing accurate yardages, replacing divots, raking sand traps and repairing ball marks, cleaning golf clubs and the golf ball on the green, assistance with reading putts, and tending the flagstick. 

Single Forecaddie services up to four players that are riding in golf carts. The Forecaddie fee is $27.50 per player and recommended gratuity is $20 and up per player.

Double Bag Carry Caddies are available to those players desiring to walk but want to share a caddie. These caddies provide the same services as Forecaddies but also walk and carry bags for two players simultaneously. The Double Bag Carry Caddie fee is $66 per player and recommended gratuity, $25 and up per player.

Single Carry Caddies are available for those players wanting to walk the course with their own personal caddie. The Single Carry Caddie fee is $90 per player and recommended gratuity is $40 and up per player.

We are very excited to enhance the Sawgrass experience and hope you take advantage of this new service.
