What does CADDY mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person who carries a golfer's clubs and gives advice during a round, or a small container used for storing something such as tea.
On a golf course a caddy walks the round with a player, carrying the bag of clubs and often suggesting which club to use for a given shot, a role that requires real knowledge of the course and the game. The unrelated household sense, a tea caddy, is a small box or tin used to keep tea leaves fresh and within easy reach, a use that goes back to a Malay word for a unit of weight once used in the tea trade. Both senses share only the idea of a holder for something valuable, one for tools and one for tea. The golfing sense is by far the more common use of the word today.
How CADDY is used
The golfing sense is common in sports writing; the tea-container sense is now mostly historical or found in antique shops.

- The caddy read the green before the final putt.
