Edmontonian speaks about caddying at The Masters golf tournament at Augusta

An Edmontonian walked the hallowed grounds of Augusta on Thursday, but he was inside the ropes.

Danny Sahl caddied for golfer Vijay Singh, who won The Masters in 2000. This is Sahl’s fourth time “looping” at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, having caddied three times before for 2003 champion, Canadian Mike Weir.
