June, 2012 - A chance meeting on the Old Course

David Field was a caddy at the course this past summer when Ben and his friends were there on a golfing vacation. He saw Big Ben on the course and knew he had to meet him! He just recently found the websiteâ€™s twitter page and tweeted his photo and a â€œthank youâ€!

From David:

As a caddie we see the ballot and all the names of players on the Old Course daily and obviously take note of the celebs that come through. Iâ€™m a huge American football fan even though Iâ€™m Scottish and coverage is limited over here. We had heard rumours of Big Ben being over in St. Andrews and when the ballot went up I noticed his name and my initial reaction was to just meet him! It was on the 13th hole of the Old Course and I was caddying down the 6th which is adjacent. I looked over and noticed the size of the man and thought, â€œWow thatâ€™s Big Ben!â€. I immediately went over and asked for a picture while congratulating him on the Super Bowl wins and the most amazing TD pass ever to Santonio Holmes! Ben was a perfect gentleman and said he always loves to meet fans. Top man â€“ top professional!
