Says Who Sports with John Dauphin

Hall of Fame Caddie Joe LaCava visits with Says Who Sports to discuss highlights from his three-plus decades on the PGA Tour and working with the game’s greats, from twenty years on the bag with Fred Couples, including a win at the 1992 Masters, to ten years with Tiger Woods, including Tiger’s improbable 2019 Masters win. Considered perhaps the greatest caddie ever, LaCava nonetheless maintains a humility and gratitude for his journey that fuels his drive for continued success.
