Hank Haney, former coach of Tiger Woods, has reversed his criticism of Rory McIlroy's caddie, Harry Diamond, after previously labeling a club choice during the US Open as a 'bad decision.' Initially, Haney's comments followed McIlroy's frustrating performance at the BMW Championship, where he showed visible signs of distress. However, he has now praised Diamond, stating, 'I think his caddie is great for him,' and emphasized that mistakes can happen in high-pressure situations. In response, McIlroy defended Diamond, arguing that their friendship does not hinder his caddie's effectiveness, and criticized Haney for not recognizing Diamond's past successes with him. This ongoing discussion underscores the pressures faced by golfers and their caddies during major tournaments.
