Sergio Garcia had to give in at some point. At least that’s what must have been going through Mark Johnson’s mind each day that he tweeted the Spaniard asking to be his caddie.

It took 206 days of tweets bearing the slogan #letmecaddieforyou before Garcia gave in and agreed to let Johnson be his looper during the British Masters pro-am.

The dedication paid off and the unknown American will get the chance to spend time with one of the world’s best golfers.
