(Editor: Bumped up from the diaries.)

If you didn't know before, you probably know by now that Angel Cabrera's caddie is Eddie Gardino from "The Big Break." He was on seasons IV and VII - 7 being the most recent "Reunion" version.

And that's where Eddie and Nikki DiSanto seemed to make a "love connection" - or at least that's how the Golf Channel played it up in the editing room!

So when I was watching the U.S. Open on Sunday, I was wondering, "Is Nikki watching this? Are Nikki and Eddie still an 'item' - if they ever were"?

Hey, it's amazing what kind of info you can find out if you're just willing to ask! I have corresponded with Nikki a few times in the past when I featured her on my Golf Babes blog. So I dropped her a line.

And as she always does, Nikki quickly and courteously wrote me back. (She's one of the nicest people you'll meet - if I can count trading emails with her as "meeting" her.)

Nikki told me that she and Eddie remain friends and have seen each other once or twice since the last "Big Break" show ended.

"I could not be happier for Eddie and Cabrera!" Nikki said. "I am so pleased and proud of him and it was a pleasure to watch him light up on TV like that."

I didn't want to pry any further because, well, it's none of my business. So I didn't badger Nikki with follow-up questions. It's enough to know that Nikki and Eddie are still friends.

And I'm just happy to have an excuse to post another photo of the gorgeous Nikki:
