World No 3 Adam Scott hires Mike Kerr as his full-time caddie

Former Masters champion Adam Scott has chosen Zimbabwean Mike Kerr as his new caddie.

The world No 3 has been trying out different men on the bag since splitting with Steve Williams and has been approached by more than 100 caddies for the position.

But Scott has decided to link up with Kerr full-time after the Zimbabwean impressed on the bag during the Australian Open and Australian PGA Championship.

Kerr has previously worked for Ernie Els, Lee Westwood and most recently Thorbjorn Olesen. 

"I'm delighted that Mike has accepted my offer and I am confident that he will be a valuable member of my team for 2015 and beyond," he said in a statement on Monday.
