Azahara Munoz is set to compete at the Olympics for the third straight time. This time she is also accompanied by her husband, Tim Vickers, who is also doing the caddying job for his wife.
Vickers is not a regular bagman for Azahara Munoz, but he has occasionally done the caddying job for her. He caddied for the Spaniard during her successful run at the Lactose Ladies Open de France, where she won. He also carried her bag in the 2021 LPGA season.
Vickers has a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in International Marketing from Florida State University. Initially, he worked as a senior instructor at David Leadbetter Golf until 2011. In 2016, he joined Marsh & McLennan Agency Private Client Services in Florida as a Risk Advisor. Two years ago, he became the Vice President and Wealth Advisor at FineMark National Bank & Trust.
Tim Vickers and Azahara Munoz got into a relationship in 2012. The couple tied the knot in December 2015, and became the parents to Lucas two years ago.
