Who Is Daniel Berger’s Caddie?
Find out more about Daniel Berger's caddie here
Since returning from the Covid-19 lockdown, Daniel Berger has been one of the game's most inform players, with victories at the 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge and 2021 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am earning the American a spot on the victorious US Ryder Cup side at Whistling Straits.
Although the success is down to Berger's immense play, his caddie, Josh Cassell, has also played a huge part in the American's recent victories. In this piece, find out more about Cassell here.
Who Is Daniel Berger's Caddie?
We believe that Cassell took on Berger's bag when golf returned from lockdown in June 2020, with the pair enjoying a number of successes throughout their relatively short career.
Cassell brings many years of experience to the role and has been caddying on the Tour since 2000. Previously, he has worked with professionals like Jason Dufner, Billy Horschel, John Senden, Paul Gow, Aaron Baddeley and Geoff Ogilvy.
Growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee, Cassell has stated that the best part of being a caddie is "having the opportunity to make a difference in the players performance when trying to win a golf tournament."
Over his career, Cassell has claimed multiple wins whilst on the bag, with one of his proudest being John Senden's victory at the Valspar Championship in 2014. Another notable victory for Cassell came in 2017 when, having missed the cut with Billy Horschel at the 2017 Players Championship, the caddie predicted that they would win a week later at the AT&T Byron Nelson, which is exactly what happened, with Horschel managing to defeat Jason Day in a playoff.
As well as Cassell, Berger has worked with other caddies in the past, with the likes of Grant Berry and Lance Bennett previously caddying for the American.
