It must be awful to be fired, especially when you've done nothing wrong. Nevertheless, Matthews should have kept his mouth shut. The last thing he needs is to be compared to that piece of trash-- Stevie Williams.
One of those MOABs needs to be dropped on IMG headquarters. Bloodsuckers.

"In all honesty, there is no communication in the whole camp. You never know anything or are told anything," said Matthews. "The agent [Michael Yim of IMG] called me on the Monday after Palm Springs and said, 'She needed a change, we’re going with somebody else, but you can caddie in Hawaii.' "I’m like well, never in 19 years have I been fired, and I’m still working for the person. What was so strange for me, we worked unbelievably well in Hawaii, the communication and everything was just phenomenal." *********************************************************************** As I said before....the LPGA loops get treated like dirt....and the pros and their parents know they'll take it. Those Koreans...I tell ya. This demonstrates Tina has zero people skills and zero business acumen. She should have fired Matthews and offer a $2,000-$4,000 severance and be done with it...she's belittling Matthews by firing him yet offering him another week...and a desperate Matthews says yes....LMAO. If IMG had any smarts they would have offered the same counsel...maybe they did offer advice.....but I guess they are all a bunch of puppets and the advice went on deaf ears from Tina. Lydia can contend with a monkey on her bag....Tina should have just hired a local...offered a fixed $1.000-$2,000 for the week than many locals would have jumped on vs. paying approx.....$13,000-$14,000 to Matthews for the 7% earnings payout + weekly per diem + airfare + hotel + food, etc

"Matthews, who has worked for Sergio Garcia, Anthony Kim, Trevor Immelman and Camilo Villegas, was told that Ko "needed a friend out there." In a little more than three years, Ko has gone through nine caddies."
************************************************************************
Lydia if you want a friend...get a dog....oh wait...Lydia said she wanted a dog after her 2013 CN CWO win...but Tina vetoed it.....lol.

I guess Lydia has been taking acting lessons from the Phony Pink One.....she sure did fool Matthews in Hawaii.

"Matthews, who lives in Dallas with his wife and two kids, has an upcoming tryout with Minjee Lee, hoping to remain on the LPGA Tour."
**************************************
Obviously, Matthews doesn't know the LPGA pros....Minjee has been through a few loops since 2016....I suspect Gary only lasts on Minjee's bag for 2-3 months. Jason Hamilton was on Minjee's bag at the Lotte...I guess on loan as Yani was not playing.
Talk about K-DRAMA. Sura Ko, Lydia's older sister, is also Lydia's IMG road manager....Sura is also Minjee's IMG road manager....I also believe Sura and Minjee are friends too.....I wonder if Matthews will be on Minjee's bag next week in Irving. TX now that Matthews has come public with his ex-employment situation with Lydia.

They need to interview caddies more often. No brainer.

Poor guy probably got abused by Garcia and Villegas--two real jerkoffs and now this.
He should have just gotten a skycap job at DFW. Then he'd be able to buy and sell most of the LPGA caddies. And he could send Ko's clubs to Outer Mongolia.

So Matthews has gone through 4 players, three of which are still active? What's his problem? Pot, meet Mr Kettle.

Yup....I think there's something fishy about Matthews too...obviously Tina didn't catch it....but then again....we all know Tina knows jacksh*t about golf. Hmmmmm....so why does a guy leave the PGA tour to loop in the minor league of the LPGA....that's like Brad Beecher being fired by Winbee and going to loop on the Symetra tour. I think once you loop on the LPGA....you're pigeon holed....it's difficult to upgrade from the LPGA to the PGA tour. Can anyone name more than 5 loops who have successfully upgraded from the LPGA to the PGA tour and stayed there? I believe Brooker did...but he didn't stay on the PGA tour and he might have only grabbed a low/mid level PGA bag. If Matthews isn't on Minjee's bag next week....we'll know he should have kept his mouth shut. There's a saying...."LESS IS MORE" Minjee is pals with Sura & Lydia. I wish I was in Irving, TX next week and would luv to see Tina EYEBALL Matthews....I luv drama...especially...K-DRAMA....Tina could win an Oscar for her performance....maybe Leadbetter might make a guest appearance too.....MORE POPCORN PLEASE. I think Korean women are SO HOT when they are mad!

I watched the coverage again last night. A few comments.
They showed In Gee putting on 4, and I don't think they showed her again until the 15th hole, despite the fact she was on the first page of the leaderboard the whole time. They showed Sharp on every hole in that span. WTF?
Jang really did play sloppy from hole 6 on, but the big problem seemed to be that her KLPGA caddie was playing by KLPGA rules. Apparently, the KLPGA is much stricter about slow play rules, so she was hustling when she got put on the clock, while Kerr knew she would never get penalized and so took it easy. Also, there were several instances where Jang decided not to take lift, clean and place, especially around the green. Had she SLOWED DOWN and done the lift clean, she might have come out all right. That might also have been caused by the slow play stress, or it might have been cluelessness on her and her caddie's part.

Minjee might have already fired him...we'll find out next week...Minjee is close to Sura and Lydia. Back in 2015....I saw Sura walking along with Minjee heading off somewhere....it's no surprised Sura is Minjee's IMG road manager. Sura is really cute and I spoke with her in 2015. There's a really good Korean restaurant called Sura here on Robson St...it has an AMAZING 10 course lunch deal....a few years ago it was $20/pp. If Matthews isn't canned already..I say he lasts 2-3 months max on Minjee's bag....she cycles through a lot of loops too.

I posted before...I knew Jang would be toast playing with Crusty....Kerr played Jang like a puppet....getting the group put on the clock....Kerr is a major league *****. Blame it all on Sharpie who choked on 18 in the 3rd rd to send her to play with Dumbo in the penultimate group on Saturday.
