Joe LaCava Makes a Huge Positive Announcement Regarding Tiger Woods’ 2022 Schedule

Tiger Woods announced that he would not tee up at any events in a long time as he finished playing in the 2022 Open Championship last week. The revelation from the golfer had left the golf world heartbroken. However, the new update from his caddie implies that the golfer’s fans may not have to wait a lot to see him play again! 

“I’m hoping that he will play maybe in December at the Hero and the father-son,” Joe LaCava said. Additionally, he added, “I’m hoping three maybe four before the Masters.” 

After falling short of the cut at the Open Championship at St. Andrews last week, the 15-time major champion said, “Nothing in the near future,” about his 2022 schedule. However, his caddie’s revelation in the Dan Patrick Show implies that he would attend the Hero Challenge and the PNC Championship, a father-son unofficial event, in 2022.

Hosted by Woods, the 2022 Hero Championship will begin on November 28 and end on December 4. The 2022 PNC Championship, on the other hand, is scheduled from December 15 to 18. Notably, the World Golf Hall of Famer and his son were able to secure the second place in the father-son event last year, making 11 consecutive birdies.  

Joe LaCava hopes the golfer begins his practice this fall! 

“‘I’ll be there, maybe give you (Woods) a little motivation. We’ll go down and play and practice a little bit here and there,'” LaCava revealed what would be his plans for Woods’ practice session before the Hero Championship. 

Woods has yet to recover from the injuries he got from the accident he had from a car accident in 2021. Therefore, his longtime caddie understands if he won’t be able to practice full-time in October or November this year. However, he hopes to go down to Woods and help him in any way possible. 

The 2021-22 schedule of Tiger Woods

Due to his accident, Tiger Woods was only able to attend three competitions in the 2021-22 season so far. He made his comeback after a year at the Masters Tournament and finished 47 on the leaderboard. 

With his injuries still hurting him, he was able to advance to the final rounds at Augusta National. However, he couldn’t do the same at the 2022 PGA Championship. He had to withdraw from the major tournament due to health issues. 

Furthermore, Woods played in St. Andrews last week at the 150th British Open. Although he took two month break from golf to attend it, he couldn’t make the cut at the home of golf. 

Even though he is struggling with his health, Woods wants to keep playing golf. Are you excited to watch him play at the Hero Challenge?
