“Unbelievable Achievement: David Carey Makes PGA Tour Debut Accompanied by His Girlfriend as Caddie!”

David Carey’s golfing journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. He’s fought through countless obstacles, honed his skills, and persevered through times of struggle. And now, all of his hard work has finally paid off: he’s qualified for his first PGA Tour event. What makes this even more incredible is that his girlfriend, who also happens to be his caddie, was there every step of the way. This heartwarming story of dedication, perseverance, and love is sure to inspire anyone who feels like giving up on their dreams. Let’s take a closer look at David Carey’s journey to the PGA Tour, and the incredible partnership he shares with his girlfriend.


David Carey, the Irish golfer, has qualified for the $8.9 million Valero Texas Open, giving him the chance to make another Major appearance in next week’s Masters Tournament. Carey, who impressively qualified for The 150th Open at St Andrews last year, shot a seven-under 65 at Fair Oaks Ranch to secure one of four qualifying spots, having also made it through the Pre-Qualifier at Cypresswood Golf Club. Veteran Pádraig Harrington will be competing against Carey at the Valero Texas Open. Harrington is also chasing a qualifying spot at Augusta National, along with a field that includes Rickie Fowler, former Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama, and last weekend’s Corlaes Puntacana winner Matt Wallace.

One of the most colourful Irish players, Carey is renowned for his Ben Hogan flat cap with the moniker “Mr. 57”, as he shot an 11-under 57 on his way to victory in the Cervino Open on the Alps Tour in Italy in 2019. Carey is a Dundonald Links ambassador and has a faster ball speed than Jon Rahm or Rory McIlroy. He famously qualified for The Open by winning the Final Qualifier by four shots at Fairmont St Andrews. Carey is a unique competitor who is not afraid to be different and thrives on having people watch him hit drivers. Carey will be playing alongside his girlfriend Caitlin, who just supported him in winning the qualifier, at the Valero Texas Open.


In the end, David Carey’s story is one of determination, hard work and the unwavering support of those closest to him. With his girlfriend by his side, Carey achieved what many thought was impossible – playing in his first PGA Tour event. His journey has been full of ups and downs, but he never gave up on his dream. As he steps onto the course, he embodies the true spirit of the game, and his story serves as a reminder to us all that anything is possible with a little bit of faith and a lot of hard work. We wish him all the best as he takes on the challenge and look forward to following his career in the future.
