Bryson DeChambeau has announced the name of his new full-time caddie. Brian Zeigler will now carry DeChambeau’s bag on the professional tour. The 27-year-old shared this information on Saturday through a hilarious Instagram video. Brian Zeigler will replace Tim Tucker, who was the long-time looper for DeChambeau.
Tim was on the bag for each of Bryson’s eight PGA Tour victories. But unfortunately, these two had a sudden split on the eve of last week’s Rocket Mortgage Classic. So one of the Cobra’s staff took the responsibility of carrying the bag. But sadly, Bryson missed the cut and failed to defend his title at the Detroit Golf Club.

After refusing to speak with the media about his spill out with Tim Tucker, his long-time caddie, DeChambeau expressed himself in an interview.
“Everybody always thinks there was some kind of falling out, but there really wasn’t. This was in the works for a while,” DeChambeau told Golf.com. “Tim is a really, really great friend of mine. He’s somebody that I’ve cared about, and still care about, and will care about for the rest of my life.”

And the first assignment of Bryson and Brian together is itself a challenging one; The Open Championship at the Royal St. George England, which begins July 15.
