Tiger Woods’ longtime caddie and counselor Joe LaCava saw the moment of truth coming from a mile away.
Joe LaCava, left, foresaw Tiger Woods’ looming challenge at The Masters.Fans on social media jokingly saw it as JT doing a bromance solid for TW, who made his 23rd consecutive Masters cut to match the record held by Gary Player and Fred Couples. Truth is, Thomas didn’t do his bud much of a favor. Woods went out there after lunch to get eaten alive by the beast Augusta National had become. But first, when the suspended second round resumed at 8 a.m.
Wearing a ski cap over his hat as he started on the back nine, Woods bogeyed two of the first five holes before everything unraveled around him. His third shot on the par-5 15th — where he made his controversial illegal drop after his ball hit the pin and plunged into the water 10 years ago — landed on the green and spun back into the pond en route to a double bogey.

Tiger Woods' painful Masters walk results in opening 74Tiger Woods had three birdies and five bogeys during an opening round of 74 at the Masters on Thursday, leaving him in contention to play the weekend but hardly to win the tournament. He had two tough lip-outs on the front nine, a couple of poor pitch shots that led to bogeys, and some bad luck at the 18th led to his final bogey. It was the worst opening round for Woods at the Masters since 2005, when he followed another 74 with 65-66-71 to capture the fourth of his five green jackets. But he's hardly the same player these days. He is now a combined 16 over for his last four rounds at Augusta National.
