Although golf is still a luxury aristocratic sport in China, from the outside world, the social status of caddies has not been touched by the noble light. The reporter 1872 interviewed the caddy who was active in Qingzhuhu International Club when the surprise caused by "college students being caddies" had not disappeared.

"There is a precedent for college students to be caddies, and internship caddies are even more popular." The relevant person in charge of the stadium told the reporter.

Then, with the continuous emergence of high-quality caddies, is caddies no longer just a profession to make a living? Do they want to be bossed around? Did they really get rid of their humble fate? Ke Huang Ming and Feng Suzhen gave the reporter the loudest answer.

Character 1: "It is beyond reproach for college students to be caddies."

Huang Mingke, male, 19 years old, is a caddy for a sophomore in hunan international economics university.

"If there is a choice, I believe that every university is not willing to be a caddy, but since it is a golf major, it is not a bad thing to start with a caddy if you want to make a difference in this industry."

In the first semester of the second year of college, Huang Mingke has begun to think about what will happen two years later-how to lose his job before graduation. Together with more than 20 foreign golf students, he came to Qingzhuhu International Golf Club as an intern caddy.

When I first saw him, the reporter smiled: What a childish little boy, a student dressed up, with a shy smile on his red face. Seeing me, I had lunch in a hurry and had an interview in the driving range.

"Coming out of school, the biggest feeling is that there is still a big gap between theory and practice," Huang Mingke said. "Obviously, I have a deep understanding of some knowledge in class, but when I really want to start working, I find there is still a gap." He remembered the first time he played ball with a guest. Because he is nervous, some services are not in place. "But the guests are very elegant. They not only don't blame me, but also joke with me to ease my nervousness. " Although they are only caddies, Huang Ming Kobe is more attentive in school. "Since then, I also learned this trick. Every time I accompany the guests to the end, I tell jokes when they are in a bad mood, let them adjust their mentality and watch the guests swing every shot with my help. The sense of accomplishment and satisfaction is beyond words! "

As he is only an intern caddy, Huang Mingke doesn't have many opportunities to leave the court with the guests. Most of the time, he is on duty at the driving range to practice the ball. "The club takes care of our students very much. The three-shift schedule only allows us to go to the middle shift and cancels the hardest' morning shift and night shift'. " As a "fledgling" student, Huang Mingke is very modest. "I learned a lot here, not only learned to play with professional coaches and master hitting skills, but also learned many points of interpersonal communication in the golf industry, as well as the characteristics of the club's top management, etc ..." In just a few months, Huang Mingke's hitting level has improved significantly, and sometimes he helps novices correct their movements in the driving range, and he has also changed his original shy appearance and communication skills.

"For college students to be caddies, there are many sayings on the Internet. What do you think? " The reporter's question embarrassed Huang Keming. He was silent for a long time. He said calmly, "If there is a choice, I believe that every college graduate is unwilling to be a caddy. But since he is a golf major and wants to make a difference in this industry, it is not a bad thing to start with a caddy, which also reflects the change of contemporary college students' ideas in the face of real employment pressure. "

"My biggest wish is to become a professional coach." Huang Mingke immediately put forward his career development goals. "Caddy is certainly a good career, but I want to use the caddy's work experience as a springboard to lay a good foundation for myself to become a coach in the future!"

Character 2: "If you do it with your heart, you will have a sense of accomplishment."

Feng Suzhen, a 25-year-old female, came to her hometown in Zhangjiajie to find a B-class caddy for three years.

"Lao Feng, show this reporter around and introduce your work flow." Following the sound source, the reporter didn't see the "Lao Feng" at all. He is not tall, and his young face is slightly shy. "I have been here for more than three years, and everyone calls me' Lao Feng' with a smile!" Facing the reporter's puzzled eyes, Lao Feng explained with a smile.

Sitting in the carriage, Feng Suzhen skillfully drove the carriage and introduced it to reporters. "This is a tee. To help the guests set the ball T in advance, inform the terrain and report the number of yards; This is green, so we should help guests draw lines and choose strokes. At the same time, we are also temporary referees, to tell the guests where the penalty is, and to supervise whether the guests touch the sand when the ball falls into the bunker ... "Occasionally, we stop," This is the highest point of the stadium, and we can take the most beautiful scenery; This is the most distinctive No.1 hole, known as the devil's hole, which can't stop the ball; This is the par-4 hole in the 7th hole, with a history of one-shot hole … "What an old Feng, he knows the golf course like the back of his hand.

"Don't look at the ease of work now, but I have suffered a lot during on-the-job training." It turns out that it takes three months of hard training to become Zhu Qinghu's caddy, including running 18 hole every morning and evening, standing in the military posture, learning theoretical knowledge and so on. After that, you have to pass a rigorous exam before you can officially play. "Being wronged is inevitable," Lao Feng said. "I remember one time a guest asked me to do four things at the same time, but I forgot one thing in such a hurry. I am too tired to run, and I am also complained about my poor working ability! " "But most of the guests are very reasonable and won't let me risk my life to pick up the ball. At the end of each service, I will say something of thanks. "

After working on the court day after day for three years, Lao Feng said that instead of being bored, she liked the job more and more. "It's too extreme to say that caddies have a low status. In fact, many times, we play the role of military advisers. " She smiled and said that breathing fresh air in the blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and beautiful scenery, and sometimes watching beautiful players for free, accompanying guests to catch birds and even eagles, anything unhappy can disappear instantly.

"Although it is a coincidence to be a caddy, I will change careers now, and I will never do it!" Referring to the fact that many people now criticize female caddies for using their bodies to open up interpersonal networks and achieve "curve" employment, Lao Feng seems very calm: "I just love this profession deeply, sprinkle sweat on the court every day and serve every guest thoughtfully. This is my happiness. I believe that no matter whether he is a college student or not, as long as he really works hard, he will definitely do well and fall in love with this profession, which is very fulfilling. "

On the way to the stadium, Lao Feng nodded and smiled at the guests and colleagues around him from time to time, and everyone responded to her with the same courtesy and enthusiasm. "My greatest wish is to become an A-level caddy as soon as possible!" From this simple and generous girl's face, the reporter saw real happiness and satisfaction.

■ Interview notes

At the end of the interview, the caddies were still busy with their work-picking up bags, seeing off guests and leaving the field. On such a rare sunny winter day, everyone has a happy smile on his face. The reporter believes that every caddy must be happy. Because in their hearts, there is a dream, small or big, realistic or beautiful. The reporter also sincerely hopes that these "strategists" who are active in golf courses can bring glory to China's golf career!
