Long's regular caddie recently tested positive for COVID-19, so he will be forced to use a local caddie in his Masters debut, according to the
Daily Mail.
ANALYSIS
Long earned a spot in the Masters by winning last year's Amateur Championship at Royal Birkdale, but he will have his work cut out for him in his first appearance at Augusta. Not only will he be without his familiar man on the bag, he is working back from a leg injury -- he declared himself "completely healed" -- and he is trying to become only the second British amateur to make the cut at the Masters since 1978.
