Lee Hodges Caddie

Andrew Medley, Hodges' current caddie, is only a few years older than him and attended Auburn University for collegiate golf. Even though he did retire shortly after graduating, Medley continued to play golf by caddying for other professionals.

However, at the beginning of 2022, Hodges severed his relationship with his first caddy, Robbie Peeler. Medley, whom Hodges recognized from their same neighborhood, was the next caddy on the bag. Lee Hodges and James Medley's younger brother met in college when they played golf together on a regular basis.

In an interview with Alabama Golf News, Hodges said how his choice to choose Medley as his caddy was driven by their same interests and the prospect of a genuinely excellent working relationship. Hodges praised Medley's "intensity and meticulous approach," seeing it as a good fit for his playing style and a way to develop a "strong and effective collaboration" on the golf course.

Medley is not hesitant to point out Lee Hodges' faults, and due to his frank honesty, Hodges won the 3M Open trophy. Medley says he enjoyed being behind such a talented player while Lee was on the field. Lee's youthful exuberance inspired Medley to participate in the game and motivated him to devote more time to the field.

According to Medley, Hodges is really simple to caddy since he enjoys golf. Medley encouraged Hodges to do the basics and everything correctly, just like in everyday practice. He advised Hodges to maintain a solid position on the field rather than being impacted by each shot. This makes Hodges more focused on his actions in between the tournament matches.
