Ian Baker-Finch just let it drop on the coverage today that Tiger gave the OK for Steve to caddie for Adam Scott at the U.S. Open but then at the last minute changed his mind, then fired Steve for being disloyal. Ian Baker-Finch said he has talked to Steve about it. I believe it.
Aussie's sticking together, Finch thinks Scott's the best thing since sliced bread. If Steve works for Tiger even when Tiger isn't playing and he needs Tigers okay to caddy for another player because it's in his contract then if Tiger changes his mind about letting him caddy for Scott and he does anyways, that might just piss off his boss who made him very rich in the preceding years.
Plus isn't Butch H. Scott's instructor...hmmmm.
