More about Paul Stevens:

Paul began caddying when he was just 12 years of age, at Rochdale Golf Club in the United Kingdom, as a weekend and summer holiday job. However, Paul’s talent as a singer soon took priority and it wasn’t until some years later that he caddied again, this time accompanying his cousin at a professional tournament.

Paul’s career immediately took off and the following year he was standing on the 18th green at royal Lytham St Anne’s, on the final round of the Open with the top two professionals in the field, Gary Player and Peter Oosterhuis.

Paul went on to win 15 tournaments, and had 10 finishes in the top 15 of The Open Championship, including twice being runner-up. He caddied in the Dunhill Cup, Kirin Cup and World Cup, as well as the Ryder Cup, in matches against the legendary Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer.

He won the Australian Open in 1984 with Tom Watson (three times Open Champion, Masters and U.S. Open Champion at Royal Melbourne, one of the finest courses in the world.
