(Reuters) - The caddie merry-go-round continued when former world number one Jason Day revealed on Wednesday that he has sacked long-time bagman Col Swatton. Swatton has been a father-figure for Day, doubling as caddie and coach -- a role he will maintain -- for the 29-year-old Australian's entire career. “Unfortunately it just didn’t work out,” Day told Golf Channel on the eve of the BMW Championship at Conway Farms, outside Chicago. “He’s just coming off the bag and going to more of a coaching role,” Day said. The news comes a month after another former world number one, Rory McIlroy, dumped his caddie, J.P. Fitzgerald.
