Christina Lance, LPGA Tour Media Director, explained, "Most players have dedicated caddies, so this measure applies when they have to use local caddies," adding, "There could be health concerns when playing with a caddie they do not know well." At a charity event held on the 18th, featuring Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland), Dustin Johnson, Rickie Fowler, and Matthew Wolff (all from the U.S.), the players carried their own golf bags.
