Sometimes all they want to do is steal your clubs.

Other times, they have their own methods, their own special way of doing things.

So it's easy to see how quarrels can happen in the heat of the moment during competition time.
Robert Allenby of Australia took the decision to sack his caddie mid-round after the pair fell out over a club.
Allenby withdrew from the Candadian Open after shooting an 81 in the first round and having to trod along with a fan as a caddie for the remaining five and a half rounds.
“My nerves have been rattled. I’m in shock,” Allenby told SCOREGolf after the heated disagreement on the 13th hole that ended with his caddie being fired. “This is the worst incident I’ve ever witnessed as a player.
“I said to him (Mick Middlemo), ‘You know this happens every week. We keep making bad mistakes and you’re not helping me in these circumstances’.
“He just lost the plot at me. He got right in my face as if he wanted to just beat me up. I said, ‘Stop being a such-and-such and calm down and get back into the game’. And he just got even closer and closer and I just said, ‘That’s it, you’re sacked’.”
Of course, the caddie saw it differently.
“Robert’s a pretty highly strung individual and he hasn’t been playing great of late,” Middlemo told Australian radio station SEN.
“We had a discussion about a club, then of course I copped the wrath of that."
Never have 'a discussion' with a highly strung golfer.
