Lucas Glover has enjoyed a highly successful end to his 2023 season, with the 43-year-old becoming the first person since Vijay Singh in 2008 to win back-to-back events in their forties.

On the bag for Glover during this inspired end to the 2023 season has been veteran PGA Tour caddie, Tom Lamb.

It is unclear exactly when Glover and Lamb began working together but it appears to be around the start of the 2022 season. In that time, the pair have worked to good effect, with Glover moving inside the top 100 in the world and now going on to claim two PGA Tour titles in successive at the back end of the 2023 season.
Prior to Lamb, Glover had a long-term partnership with Don Cooper. Cooper was formerly a club caddie at Augusta National where the pair first met. He was later hired as Glover’s bagman in 2003.
