With Tiger Woods stepping on course to compete professionally for the first time this year, the golf world has been super pumped. However, as much as the fans have missed him, his competitors, family, and those closely involved must have felt his absence even more.

One such man was, undoubtedly, Joe LaCava, Tiger’s long-time caddie. He has carried the 15-time major champion’s bag from all the way back in 2011 and was a part of his historic 2019 Master’s win.

And now, after almost a year, the Hall of Fame caddie has again joined hands with him at the 2021 PNC Championship. Emotions were at an all-time high as Tiger Woods and Joe both confessed their feelings after being reunited after his solo car crash.

He clarifies, “For me, it’s win or bust. You know what I mean? So, to sit there and try to change your mode and say, ‘Okay, let’s have fun today’, it’s tough. I know it’s tough for Tiger and obviously it’s tough for me too.”

However, Tiger very easily, just said, “I missed this dude. I love him dearly. And you know, just being out there with Joe, we’ve never been apart. It’s just one of those things. We picked it up right away.”

And well, that’s the beauty of real friendship, is it not? After a decade of being alongside one another, they’re obviously looking to make some more memories to last a lifetime.
