Joe La Cava has had a really long time off the golf course.  While his boss, Tiger Woods, is recovering from surgery, does the man have a right to caddie for someone else?  He has a right to earn a living, correct?  Not according to Joe.  He will wait patiently until Tiger is ready to come back, and he will be ready to go.  That type of loyalty is rare in the dog-eat-dog world of the PGA Tour, so this is really nice to see.  All of Tiger's fans are like Joe, just waiting until he returns.  Let's hope it is not too long.  Thanks to Kevin Casey of GolfWeek for this story.

Tiger Woods' injury woes have meant an extended absence from tournament play that is approaching six months, with no end in sight.

That has meant a long period with no on-course earnings for Woods, 40, a 14-time major champion who hasn't competed since last August's Wyndham Championship. But at least one other party's bottom line is adversely affected: caddie Joe LaCava's.

The veteran bagman spoke with ESPN's Bob Harig on Monday about his experiences since Woods announced that he would be out for an indefinite period after undergoing back surgery in September. (A follow-up procedure would occur the next month.)

LaCava also has been on the sidelines, with no bag to carry while Woods is out.

Though LaCava talked about the joy of spending more time with family and getting extra action on the links in his time off, he did open up about where he stands regarding Woods.
