Camilo Villegas Caddie

Luis Ruiz is the present caddie for Camilo Villegas. They both met on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2003. Villegas got invited to Bermuda, the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, where Villegas invited Ruiz to be his caddie.

Ruiz was born in 1986 in Mexico City. He was a keen golf lover and played at the junior level and on the US Collegiate Circuits. Because of his great performance, he earned a scholarship to Coastal Carolina University, where he graduated with a finance degree. Ruiz tried to accomplish his golf career as a player but could not succeed. This made him end up as a caddy. He has been caddying for many different players before caddying for Camilo Villegas.

Before Luis Ruiz, in the Korn Ferry Tour, Manuel Villegas, brother of Camilo Villegas, had been caddying Villegas in his tournaments. His only motto for the player, Camilo Villegas, was to have some fun on the field.
