Faldo hires local bagman for Australian Open

Nick Faldo, recently rejected by his caddie of 10 years Fanny Sunesson, has picked up a local bagman for this week's Australian Open at Royal Sydney.

The Australian Open will be Faldo's first event without Sunesson and he has opted to use Sydney caddie Murray Lott.

Faldo said: "I'm trying to adapt to the local conditions so I figured a local man was the best man for the job. But I am going to miss Fanny."
