Charlie Woods has contributed to his family’s golf legacy by aiding his high school team in clinching the FHSAA Class A state championship, a title his father, Tiger Woods, didn’t secure during his own high school career. The Benjamin School’s boys’ team, led by 14-year-old Charlie, triumphed with him shooting 78 and 76 in the two rounds at Mission Inn Resort in Florida. Despite finishing 26th individually, Charlie played a key role in securing the team’s fourth state title. Tiger, who didn’t have a high school state championship, previously won the US Junior Amateur at 15. The Woods duo has also teamed up in the PNC Championship, finishing seventh in their 2020 debut. Tiger, emphasizing balance, advised Charlie not to mimic his swing but rather model it after Rory McIlroy’s. While Charlie’s golf handicap is unknown, it is believed to be around scratch. Tiger expressed the profound experience of playing alongside his son, creating enduring memories.
