Scottie Scheffler will have Mike Cromie on his bag at the BMW Championship this week with his traditional caddie, Ted Scott, still tending to a personal matter.
Brad Payne, the PGA Tour's chaplain, stepped in for Scott on Sunday during the final round at the FedEx St. Jude Championship after the latter departed Memphis for Louisiana to address the undisclosed personal matter.
The world's top-ranked golfer, Scheffler finished T3 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, one shot out of a playoff that eventually was won by Justin Rose.
Cromie has served as the caddie for six-time PGA Tour winner Chris Kirk.
Kirk, however, fell short of qualifying for the BMW Championship at 51st in the FedExCup rankings – the top 50 advanced to this week's event.
