TIGER Woods has hired Joe LaCava to be his third full-time caddie.
LaCava decided to leave Dustin Johnson, one of the most talented young Americans, to go to work for the former world No. 1 who hasn't won in the last two years.
According to Woods' website, LaCava approached Woods and his agent, Mark Steinberg, about the job. "This was an important decision, and I wanted to think about it carefully," Woods wrote.
"Also, out of deference for the FedEx Cup Playoffs, I decided to wait until they were concluding to have substantive talks. We then spoke to Joe and came to an agreement.
"Joe is an outstanding caddie, and I have known him for many years. I've personally seen the great job he did for Freddie (Couples). I'm anxious for us to be working together."
David Winkle, Johnson's agent, confirmed LaCava was going to work for Woods and a search for a new caddie would begin immediately.
