Hanging with the caddie

Just got back from running the grounds with Scott Gneiser, the caddie for David Toms. First we picked up two sets of Toms' clubs and his luggage shipped in from last week's International in Colorado.

I checked out the expansive locker room at Medinah. Toms' locker, and the other PGA champions, are separated from the rest of the field.

From there we went to the Cleveland Golf trailer. They regripped the club's David used last week (my clubs haven't been regripped since 1989) and check the loft and lie on another set of clubs.

Gneiser and his family are members at Medinah, so it will be interesting to see if his local knowledge will help Toms at all. Gneiser is married to the former Jane Mikita, daughter of Chicago Blackhawks great Stan Mikita.

The Gneisers have three children. Two were scouring the grounds Monday. Charlie, 3, and Billy, 2, were keeping their mother busy while brother, Tommy (2.5 months), was at home with a sitter.
