Tom Gillis transitions from professional player to Tom Hoge’s caddie

Former professional golfer Tom Gillis is moving into a full-time role as a caddie for Tom Hoge on the PGA Tour next month. The 58-year-old previously spent decades as a player across the PGA Tour, PGA Tour Champions, and Korn Ferry Tour before retiring after the 2024 Ally Challenge. Gillis has spent recent months caddying for George McNeill on the PGA Tour Champions to navigate his post-playing career. He notes that his extensive experience playing various courses and managing the pressures of tournament golf assists in his transition to the bag. Gillis views the move as a way to stay involved in professional golf while maintaining an active career following two years of retirement.
