Morning Read has partnered with The Caddie Network to distribute its podcast, Under the Strap, on the Morning Read Podcast Network. In this week's episode, host T.J. Auclair welcomes Basile Dalberto, caddie for France's Matthieu Pavon on the European Tour. Dalberto shares loads of great stories about his travels through the years, including an absolute gem involving a European Tour caddie celebrating with a player and other caddies after a victory, before waking up on a fishing boat the following day in the middle of the ocean. Dalberto also discusses his favorite destinations in the world, playing college golf -- leading to a lifelong friendship with PGA Champion Rich Beem -- and how he never actually wanted to be a professional caddie... but sure is glad that's how things turned out.
