BILL MURRAY, AND BROTHERS INDUCTED INTO GOLF CADDIE HALL OF FAME

DID YOU KNOW? 

Bill Murray, who is in Chicago to play at the BMW Championship pro-am, and his five brothers were inducted in the Caddie Hall of Fame last night. The Murray brothers are now along the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, and Gene Sarazen in the Caddie Hall of Fame.

The catalyst for the honor, was the 1980 comedy "Caddyshack," which starred Bill Murray as Carl Spackler, a whacky greenskeeper.

Murray's brother Brian Doyle-Murray, who played caddie master Lou Loomis in the movie, co-wrote the script. The famously funny classic is based on the characters the Murray brothers encountered at the Indian Hill Club in Winnetka, Ill., which is three miles from where they were raised.  The brothers, includes John (a caddie in the film) Andrew, Ed and Joel went on to open a chain of Caddyshack restaurants.

Vince Pellegrino, senior vice president of tournaments for the Western Golf Association, said in a statement. "The Murray brothers' experiences coming of age in the caddie yard - including the quest for an Evans Scholarship - are what have made 'Caddyshack' a favorite, not just of golfers and sports fans but of movie lovers across the world."
