Tyrrell Hatton forced to fly emergency caddie to Masters after freak injury scuppers plans

Tyrell Hatton will reunite with the likes of Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler at this week’s Masters, but the LIV Golf star will be at Augusta without his caddie Mick DonaghyTyrrell Hatton will be without his caddie Mick Donaghy at Augusta National for this week’s Masters Tournament, after Donaghy fell whilst out for dinner in Miami last weekend.Hatton – who finished in a tie for fourth at LIV Miami on Sunday – revealed: “My caddie fell over last night after dinner. Now, his reputation is an interesting one, so I don’t know how the fall really occurred, but either way, he landed pretty heavy on his shoulder.”He spent the afternoon in hospital. He’s had an X-ray. He won’t be caddying for the next month. As far as I’m aware he’s got really bad bone bruising.”I think that’s good that he’s not broken anything. The fall means the experienced caddie will be out of action for the opening major of the year in Georgia, with Hatton instead expected to turn to friend, and fellow player Hugo Dobson to carry the bag instead around the iconic course instead.”I’ve got a friend on the bag. He is actually flying tomorrow now to Augusta, and he’ll do Adelaide and Singapore if we can get a visa in time for him to do Australia,” Hatton added. Dobson has caddied for Hatton in the past, and at the Masters, having worked alongside the Ryder Cup star at the 2019 edition of the event
