Who Is Russell Henley's Caddie?
Russell Henley currently has a man called Andrew Sanders on the bag. He has been a bagman for a while now previously working for Jimmy Walker and Jason Schultz. In fact he said his greatest memory as a caddie was winning the Frys.com in 2013 with Jimmy Walker. According to Sanders; "it was the culmination of a lot of hard work and determination."
It seems like Sanders was quite the player himself. After playing college golf at the University of Houston, Sanders eventually qualified to play at the 2000 U.S. Open as a 20 year-old. Of course Tiger Woods famously destroyed the field at that event, whereas Sanders didn't make the cut with rounds of 77-78.
Henley used to have Todd Gjesvold on the bag. There is not that much information on Gjesvold out there but we do know he attended the Oregon State University between 1986 and 1988.
According to his LinkedIn page he also says he is a caddie at the Pebble Beach Company so that would suggest he knows the famous California golf course very well.
We believe Gjesvold is a native of Omak, a city located in the foothills of the Okanogan Highlands in north-central Washington.
Of the three victories Henley has had on the PGA Tour, Gjesvold has been on the bag for one of them, at the 2017 Shell Houston Open.
As far as other previous caddies go, a few years ago Henley also used Adam Hayes who is currently the caddie for Jon Rahm.
Hayes studied at Brevard Community College and the University of Central Florida, and is considered to be one of the most respected caddies on the PGA Tour. He began his caddying career in 2000 on the LPGA Tour and four years later he made the transition to the PGA Tour. Along with Rahm and Henley, Hayes has also carried the bag for Webb Simpson, Jason Dufner, Vaughan Taylor and Ben Crane.
