After the first round of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Brandon Matthews took the lead. The American golfer tied for first place with Wyndham Clark and his teammate Beau Hossler on Thursday after scoring under 11 with his friend Sean O'Hair.

To secure the position, his caddie went above and beyond to assist him in retrieving the ball. When Brandon Matthews hit the ball during the first round, it landed on top of a small hoarding. Matthews' caddie ascended to the top to find his ball.

The PGA Tour shared a video on their Twitter account with the caption saying:

"Whatever it takes. Brandon Matthews's caddie went above and beyond to retrieve this ball at Zurich Classic."

Fans found it very normal and jumped into the comments section to write:

"Normal"

while others wrote:

"Someone buy @B_Matthews12 a dozen golf balls. Talk about being cheap @Zurich_Classic"
"Let’s go Borja! Great caddy"
"Piri!!! Best caddy ever!!"
