Jon Yarbrough caddies for Ben Griffin at Mexico Open

Summary

Jon Yarbrough has left Phil Mickelson to caddy for Ben Griffin at the Mexico Open, starting this week in Puerto Vallarta. Griffin recently parted ways with Alex Ritthamel and seeks to leverage Yarbrough's extensive experience on the PGA Tour. This partnership comes as Mickelson deals with personal challenges and has been absent from competitive golf this season. The move reflects a larger trend as caddies transition back to the PGA Tour from LIV Golf due to the tour’s competitive structure. Griffin hopes to build on his strong 2025 season, which included three wins.
