Fred Couples once got so angry with Tiger Woods‘ former caddie Joe LaCava that he could only laugh.
Former Masters champion Couples told the tale ahead of this week’s PGA Tour Champions event.
What happened transpired at the 1992 Westchester Classic in New York where Couples was in contention down the stretch.
They were on the 72nd hole and, according to Couples, he ‘pounded’ his drive down the left side of the fairway.
He had approximately 200 yards to the pin into the par-5 and it was downwind.
They discussed the club of choice and Couples wanted to hit a 6-iron.
LaCava disagreed, he said, and implored him to hit one less.
“But I’m in the rough,” Couples said.
