Former US Open winner Webb Simpson confirmed via social media that he will be reuniting with his longtime caddy Paul Tesori for the next season. The two collaborated for many years, and their collaboration was terminated in March 2013.
Tesori didn't have too much time and space to regret, and he soon found a new job. The popular caddy had the opportunity to work with important figures of the golf scene, but it seems that he always hoped for Simpson's call again. That's what happened in the end.
In an interview with the media, Tesori confirmed that he will cooperate again, this time for a year.
During the previous collaboration, which lasted 12 years, the famous caddy enjoyed every moment. However, sometimes change is important for every golfer, including Simpson, who decided to end the partnership and try to open a new leaf in his career.

"We decided to do a one-year deal and we're going to grind it out for his 11 or so events," Tesori said.
"Webb has been extremely generous. I'm under a salary and a very generous one that has enabled me to do it.
"That helps the part of staying home more often."
New collaboration: Will it bring benefits for both parties?
On the other hand, the 40-year-old golfer is aware that the experience his caddy possesses, as well as the fact that he knows him well, can be the most important thing for both of them. The American golfer has serious ambitions for next season, wanting to keep his full membership, but he is aware that he has a serious task ahead of him.
Simpson points out that he wants to return to the mentality of 2011, setting long-term goals. His desire is not to bother with each individual round, but to work towards a certain goal. Whether their cooperation will be fruitful this time and whether it will bring benefits for Webb Simpson remains to be seen.
