Just how compatible are Tour players and their caddies and coaches? We’re about to find out! Welcome to The Perfect Match, a new six-part series, powered by Cisco Webex, in which we’re asking players and their confidants a variety of questions to gauge just how well they know one other. This week’s featured pairing: Danielle Kang and her caddie, Olly Brett.

Five-time LPGA Tour winner and 2017 KPMG Women’s PGA champion Danielle Kang and her caddie, Olly Brett, have been working together for more than three years. Brett has been on the bag for four of Kang’s five wins as well as last year’s Solheim Cup, and this year alone, Kang and Brett teamed to win both the LPGA Drive on Championship and the Marathon LPGA Classic in back-to-back weeks. In short, they’re a formidable duo.
But how well do they really know one another?
In Episode 2 of The Perfect Match, we put their relationship to the test with a series of fun and off-beat questions.
Kang’s preferred pre-round beverage? That’s a slam-dunk for Brett. Olly’s favorite way to pass the time during a slow round? Kang nailed it.
But do the two know one other well enough to be deemed a Perfect Match? Watch the full video above to find out!
