Richard T. Lee and Max Lee Chieh-po have more than their own recent victories to celebrate—they’ve spotlighted the unique bond and unwavering dedication of their caddies, Malaysian brothers Agus and Eddy Sujono.
Golf fans are getting a rare, intimate look into the world of professional caddies, where loyalty, familial pride, and shared triumphs reveal just how deeply personal this sport can get.
With these back-to-back tournament wins in The International Series, the Sujono brothers have made their own mark, showing the power of brotherly collaboration at the heart of elite golf.
Last week, Agus was on the bag for Max Lee at the International Series Thailand, held at the stunning Thai Country Club.
The pair’s partnership brought a whirlwind win, as Max shot a blazing final round of 63 to clinch victory, besting seasoned competitor Peter Uihlein.
Just a week later, Agus’ younger brother, Eddy, caddied for Canada’s Richard T. Lee at the BNI Indonesian Masters, where they dominated the field to win by four strokes.
This wasn’t Eddy’s first time caddying for Richard; they first teamed up in 2017 and reconnected this year for a three-week stint that saw a fantastic crescendo of T9, T2, and finally, a tournament victory.
Emotions ran high on the green as the brothers celebrated each other’s successes with unmistakable joy.
Eddy, who had supported Richard throughout the ups and downs of the Indonesian Masters, was visibly overwhelmed after the win, saying, “I’m thrilled to get this win.
It’s been a long road, and I called on friends to keep me in their thoughts this weekend.
Winning just one week after my older brother is surreal—having both of us land these big wins makes this moment feel extraordinary.”
Agus, no stranger to the caddying world, echoed the pride and excitement, having shared Max’s journey through impressive finishes across Thailand and Jakarta.
Reflecting on their experience, Agus said, “Winning the International Series Thailand was huge. Max has been playing incredibly well, and I had a feeling we were on the cusp of something big. Eddy’s win felt like a family achievement—I couldn’t be prouder of him.”
In a competitive landscape that often sees players and caddies paired by business, the Sujono brothers have reminded golf fans of the rich, often untold stories in caddie-player dynamics.
This past week, their family celebrations have showcased a beautiful synergy between athletic excellence and the loyalty and hard work that happen behind the scenes.
Through the wins of Richard T. Lee and Max Lee, the Sujono brothers have inspired a broader appreciation for those who walk the fairways, proving that the thrill of victory is even sweeter when shared with family.
