Any Australians out there? Is "The Chief" popular slang for a driver?

Jason Day referred to his driver as "The Chief" in a press conference. Is that widely used in Australia?

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

It doesn't appear on my handy Australian Slang Dictionary either.  I use this when I talk to my friends in Oz.

Abo for "head honcho"?

Reminds me of the time I needed a bigger pipe wrench and went to a neighbor's house to borrow one after another neighbor told me where there was a big one.    At the door I asked to borrow the wrench, and the guy said "Ah!  El grande colorado!"

Shit, where was that link back in Logman's heyday.
