MEDINAH, Ill. – Joe LaCava isn’t comfortable in the spotlight, but he knows how to entertain a crowd.
Speaking on Wednesday night as part of his induction into the Western Golf Association’s Caddie Hall of Fame, LaCava regaled attendees with this simple back and forth between him and his current boss, Tiger Woods, circa 2011.
LaCava has spent the last three decades looping on the PGA Tour for the likes of Woods, Dustin Johnson, Justin Leonard and Fred Couples. He’s helped two of those players into green jackets: Couples in 1992 and Woods in 2019.
Speaking Thursday at the BMW Championship, Woods was asked if Wednesday night was the most nervous he’s ever seen Joey in their eight years as a team.
