Tiger Woods sure has loosened up over the past decade or so, and it’s made him even more of a fan-favorite. Don’t get me wrong, the 15-time major champion was always a huge draw and had galleries following him anywhere he went, walking the course just to catch a glimpse of him as they rooted Woods on. But things have been different after all that Tiger’s gone through, making this wild comeback one that he’s been able to share with the fans, which really celebrated the golfer’s latest major title at The Masters earlier this year.

As Tiger Woods has become less guarded and more open over the past few years, he’s given fans a chance to see the real him, taking part in documentaries and even showing a more revealing side thanks to a partnership with GOLF TV that he would’ve never even considered doing early in his career. Gone is the lethal Tiger that kept to himself for fear that his opponents would pick up on anything about his golf game or motivation. Instead, we get a more candid Woods — and his latest video with his caddie, Joe LaCava, is the most recent example of the golfer having some fun.

Sitting down with LaCava to answer questions from fans, Woods not only revealed a bunch about himself that many probably didn’t know — like who he thinks is the funniest player on tour is, who is favorite athlete was as a kid, and a course he’s never played on but is on his bucket list — but LaCava talked about how he celebrated the Masters victory, and let people know about some of the secret things Tiger keeps in his bag. Take a look at the video below.

As mentioned earlier, this isn’t something that Tiger Woods would’ve ever done 10 or 15 years ago, as he was so much more laser focused and secretive about his professional and personal life. He’s let down that guard a lot, though, and it’s pretty awesome to hear him laugh over some questions from fans who would otherwise never have been able to chat him up.

Now if only we could hear more details about Joe LaCava’s 100 beer celebration after the Masters, that’d be pretty dope. I don’t know, maybe Tiger could join and we could get some epic story over a few beers together? Just a suggestion.

It’s unfortunate that Tiger Woods hasn’t been healthy the past few tournaments he’s played in — with the Northern Trust Open being so bad that he had to withdraw — but here’s to hoping he gets back on track soon. If nothing else, at least he can do cool shit like the video above with LaCava as he gives his body a break.
