This is interesting, Molinari’s caddy caused him an extra couple of shots

The caddy has had a mare there. I'm guessing he was daydreaming slightly and just forgot what he was doing. It doesn't matter that he was a distance away, he was directly behind him and that's the rule.

i think Russel Knox had one as well, ball moved as he was taking the club away, Ref told him no pen, but someone changed their mind and it was added after the round

They should stop caddies being behind the player full stop.
Berger didn't seem to be able to line up a putt without his caddie behind him, both step away, retake stance - no problem.
No real difference.

They should stop caddies being on the green at all. The putting should be down to the player only.

Issue there is that Ridyard is Frankie’s coach, rather than a regular caddy (while Fuch is away due to cv19), so probably isn’t used to these things.
