Tiger Woods' former caddie makes bold Masters claim about famed golfer: 'Wouldn't put anything past the guy'
Tiger Woods admitted to authorities that he was "hoping to" play in this year's Masters Tournament before his DUI arrest in Jupiter Island, Fla.
Tiger Woods may be down, but his former right-hand man does not believe he is out.
Joe LaCava was Woods' caddie when he broke his 11-year major drought and miraculously won the 2019 Masters, his first green jacket since 2005.
Woods is now 50, and in recent memory, his performances on the course have been plenty to forget.

But LaCava, now on Patrick Cantlay's bag, is not putting "anything" past the 15-time major champion, who certainly has a flair for the dramatic.
"He’s got anything in him, and he’s proven that. But yeah, that’s the hope for me. He’s done everything, right?" LaCava told The Athletic when asked if he could one day again contend at Augusta.

"He’s going to be 50-plus, I get it. But I wouldn’t put anything past the guy. So I’d never write him off."
LaCava said he has not reached out to Woods since his DUI arrest, instead "leaving him alone and letting him figure it out for himself."
"He’s got to help himself, which is what I’m hoping he’ll do. But I have not made any contact with him ..." LaCava said.
