Meet Sophea Lim, Caddy Master at Vattanac Golf Resort, Phnom Penh Cambodia. Sophia is honored this month for the Troon Value: Genuinely Meticulous. She takes care in preparing her team and their guests to ensure daily success. Q: How did you get into golf/become a caddy? A: I have always enjoyed different sports like volleyball and I noticed on social media that there was a job opportunity at Vattanac Golf Resort, so I was naturally interested and saw it as a good opportunity to involve sport in my career. Q: How do you inspire other women to become a Caddy or Caddy Master? A: I like to explain the opportunities available to them when working at Vattanac Golf Resort, and how the training program will help them achieve their personal and professional goals. Many Caddies do not feel like they have many opportunities in life, so I like to show them that there is always room for career development regardless of their background. Q: This month, we celebrate Wellness, both for our associates and our guests. Caddying can be quite physical work; what are some stretches or exercises that you recommend for your caddies to do before starting a round with the guests? A: We encourage the team to stretch their legs before and after the round; it can make all the difference! Q: If a guest were to say to you, I only have 10 mins to warm up before my round, what do you recommend I do to warm up? A: I would say the most effective warm-up in a short time would be to get the body moving, and into similar positions that they need to achieve on the course. A few swings with 2 or 3 clubs together helps get the hips, arms and torso moving. If there are a few extra minutes, I would always recommend a short chipping session around the green to build some confidence before heading to the 1st tee.
