Charlie Woods is just 14 years old, but he has been in the national spotlight for virtually his entire life. That spotlight will only get brighter as long as Woods follows in his father’s footsteps and pursues a golf career.
The younger Woods has been playing golf since he was an infant, much like his father, and he’s old enough now that he is getting the opportunity to play alongside his father in notable events. Charlie and Tiger Woods first played at the PNC Championship in 2020, finishing as runners-up a year later, and they are teaming up again for the event this year.
For Tiger, the PNC Championship marks another step in his return to golf. He underwent ankle surgery after withdrawing from the Masters in April and didn’t play a competitive round again until an appearance at the Hero World Challenge two weeks ago. There’s no doubt the opportunity to play with his son helped motivate him during his rehab.
Here’s what you need to know about Charlie Woods’ golf prowess and where he ranks among his age group.
How good is Charlie Woods at golf?
Woods may not be the phenom his father was at such a young age, but he has a pretty impressive track record for a 14-year-old golfer.
On the Junior PGA South Florida Tour, Woods has finished in the top 20 in six of eight events this year. He is averaging a score of 76.67 as part of the Boys 13-18 Medalist Tour this year, which ranks 71st. Considering Woods is firmly on the younger end of the age group, that’s a fine mark at this point.
Here’s a closer look at Woods’ results in 2023, including two finishes right at the top of Hurricane Junior Golf Tour events.
