Who Is Nicolai Hojgaard’s Caddie, Christian Christensen? All You Need to Know About the PGA Tour Pro’s Longtime Bagman

The crucial role of a caddie in a golfer’s gameplay can never be underestimated. Christian Christensen, the trusted looper for Danish player Nicolai Hojgaard, has contributed to his achievements! The duo came into the limelight after Christensen was spotted in Hojgaard’s bag in January 2023.

Christian Christensen has also accompanied Hojgaard to the 2024 Masters, and the duo has been garnering a lot of praise. The 23-year-old has been in his best form for the past few months, and some of the credit goes to Christensen too! Let us get to know this duo a bit better!

How has been Christian Christensen’s run with Hojgaard?

Even though Christian Christensen became a regular looper for the European Tour player in 2023, they started working together a bit before. The golfer was just 19 years old when he won his first European Tour event at the DS Automobiles Italian Open in 2021 with Christensen on his bag. This event became historic due to the back-to-back victories of Hojgaard and his brother, Rasmus Hojgaard.

Christensen has since been a regular bagman for Hojgaard. With Christensen at his side, the young golfer grabbed his second European Tour victory in 2022 at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship. The duo had a top-ten finish at the 2023 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. Hojgaard finished at T23 in his first-ever Open in 2023, and two months later, he won the DP World Tour Championship.

Christensen’s assistance to Hojgaard on the greens has displayed enormous improvement in the golfer’s game. The duo appeared in their first full season on the PGA Tour and took second place at the Farmers Insurance Open earlier this year. Additionally, after a top three in the Czech Republic and a tied fifth finish in Switzerland, both the player and the caddie continued to grow.

Their journey until now has been wonderful. The golfer surely has a lot of trust in the caddie and showcased the calming influence of Christensen on the bag with his sparkling scorecard.

Christian is a private person and likes to keep information about his family, and other interests under wraps. But before linking up with Christensen, whom Hojgaard looked up to form a great team,?

With whom has Nicolai Hojgaard teamed up before Christensen?

Before Christensen, Hojgaard also had Lee Warne in his bag. Warne used to work as a greenkeeper at Wentworth. At once, twin brother Rasmus Hojgaard came to the rescue and caddied for his brother in 2019 during the KLM Open, where Hojgaard was a runner-up. Naturally, the twins are close to each other, and sharing the same profession gives a good understanding of each other’s game. The golfer’s twin brother also caddied at the 2023 Ryder Cup.
