Jordan Spieth’s caddie rolls out of Augusta with Masters flagstick jammed in his car

During the green jacket ceremony on the 18th green Sunday night, Jordan Spieth told the assembled crowd that he and his caddie usually take the flags from each tournament they win. But in this instance, they planned on taking the whole dang flagstick from the 18th green.

And he wasn’t posturing in that acceptance speech. Ben Crane shared this photo of Michael Greller’s (Spieth’s looper) car as it presumably departs for Hilton Head, where Spieth will hold up his commitment to play the RBC Heritage. That doesn’t look like the most comfortable way to travel, but much like Spieth wearing his new blazer everywhere, Greller grabbed that flagstick as soon as the final putt went down and he’s taking it everywhere he goes.
