Joe (Joseph) LaCava is a household name golf aficionado and especially among the great Tiger Woods fans. Tiger, as you know, is widely regarded as one of the greatest golfers of all time and one of the most famous athletes in modern history. And a big share of the “World Golf Hall of Fame” inductee’s win certainly has to go to his caddie of longtime, Joe LaCava. Even when Tiger had given up on himself and was done as a competitive golfer, Joe had remained his last man standing. The caddie still believed he would share more magical Sundays with his employer and believed in him for his faith in Tiger was and has always been his wife Megan LaCava.
He still thought what happened last month at the Masters was more likely than not.
