Steve Williams to caddy for Danielle Kang

After splitting with Adam Scott

Steve Williams will caddie for Danielle Kang at the New Zealand Women’s Open, after splitting with Adam Scott.

"I needed a caddie, a local, because my caddie isn't able to be here," said Kang. "Someone said, 'Would you mind having Steve Williams on your bag?' I thought it was a joke at first. Eventually I emailed him, and that was that. I had hopes of finding a local caddie, and he's as local as it gets. I think I did pretty well there."

Williams told the New Zealand Herald: "It'll be a good experience to see if I can learn something from how they do things. Danielle is a good player, and once you start the tournament, you want to win, so nothing will change there."

The 24-year-old American is ranked 21st in the world, and won her first major at the KPMG PGA Championship this year. 

Steve Williams was New Zealand's higest paid 'sportsman' when he was Tiger's bag man for 12 years, from 1999 through to 2011.
