Kiwi caddy Steve Williams hopes Australian sensation Adam Scott hasn't peaked too early in 2016. He's joking of course.
Right now Williams is semi-retired from the game but is still committed to caddying for Scott at the four majors each year.
"You can get stale at anything, and caddying ain't no different. If you're on the course every week, every month for the whole year, you can get stale and your enthusiasm can drop," said Williams.
"If you're doing them, like I found last year with the tournaments I went to which were not regular, they were irregular, I was really pumped for them."

Without Williams, Scott has been in a rich vein of form in 2016 including back-to-back wins on the US PGA tour.
This year's Masters are in April and Williams can't wait to renew his association with one of golf's big name players.
"Look, in 2013 and 2014 [Scott] had the best record in the majors so there is no reason to believe it can't continue in 2016."
"The course suits up good for him and I've caddied there 30 years so I know the course pretty good. I'm really looking forward to it."
Williams is doing some charity work in Queenstown as part of the New Zealand Open.
He was Tiger Woods caddy for 13 of his 14 majors, and was also on Scott's bag when he won at Augusta in 2013.
