Greiner spent six successful years with childhood friend Max Homa until they parted ways in March. Greiner took over for Justin Thomas when his regular caddy, Matt Minister, was sidelined with an injury, and they teamed up to win the RBC Heritage in April. Greiner formed a relationship with Colin Morikawa, but the partnership did not last long. Greiner most recently caddied for Jack Knapp at the FedEx St. Jude Championship in August. Knapp joined the Subpar Podcast in September and said of Greiner, “Looking forward to spending next season with him.”
Ranked 43rd in the world, Bhatia will be a reliable bag for many years to come. He previously worked with Brian Dilley, who caddies for David Puig at LIV Golf.
It will be interesting to see who gets Knapp’s bag when he competes in the Grant Thornton Invitational, where he is half of the defending champion team.
