I don’t have live updates in front of me right now, but here’s a quick summary of recent context around Rory McIlroy’s caddie situation based on latest publicly available reporting up to late 2024–early 2025.
- McIlroy’s long-time caddie Harry Diamond has been a constant presence on his bag since 2017, including major championships, with Diamond often praised for his partnership and support during high-pressure rounds.[2][8]
- There has been occasional reporting about questions or scrutiny of caddie arrangements around major events, and in some instances McIlroy has publicly defended Diamond amid criticism following tough finishes.[8][2]
- In the broader discussion, McIlroy and his team have shown openness to adjusting caddie arrangements for specific events or periods, but Diamond has remained the core on most high-profile tournaments when not otherwise indicated.[10][2]
If you’d like, I can search for the very latest news and provide a concise update with sources. Also tell me if you want a quick bullet timeline of recent caddie-related headlines.
