At the Masters, Rory McIlroy is supported by his longtime caddie, Harry Diamond.
Diamond and McIlroy grew up together and they played junior golf at their home club Holywood, in Northern Ireland. “I’ve known Harry since I was seven years old,” McIlroy said after winning the Masters this year. “I met him on the putting green at Holywood Golf Club. We’ve had so many good times together. He’s been like a big brother to me the whole way through my life.”
He added, “To be able to share this with him after all the close calls that we’ve had, all the crap that he’s had to take from people that don’t know anything about the game – yeah, this one is just as much his as it is mine. He’s a massive part of what I do, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to share it with than him.”

Rory McIlroy’s caddie Harry Diamond is very private, so there’s not much available about him online. But here’s what we do know about Diamond:
Diamond was in the finals of the 2011 North of Ireland Championship, and won the West of Ireland Championship in 2012. That year, he also competed at the Irish Open.

“I was an only child and Harry was a big brother. We’re very close. I love having him on the bag. I’m a different person. And I’m never going to give him shit even if something goes wrong. It would not be worth it,” the golfer said. They are very close; Diamond was McIlroy’s best man at his wedding to Erica Stoll in 2017.

“To be honest, there is no caddie in the world that would be better for Rory than Harry Diamond,” golfer Shane Lowry said. “Harry is always there a day before Rory. He’s always walking the course and doing his work. And I see it, but these guys sitting there on their stupid podcasts don’t see it.”
