Tiger Woods Defies Health Concerns for Son Charlie Woods as 16-Year-Old Targets USGA Title

Tiger Woods is surely enjoying his long career break. After announcing his latest injury in March, when he felt “a sharp pain” during training, the 15-time major winner has been resting and rehabbing after undergoing surgery to repair his left Achilles tendon, a grueling process that’s kept him sidelined from the golf tournaments. However, now he has put his injury woes aside to cheer on his talented son, Charlie.

Woods has been spotted rooting for Charlie Woods at the U.S. Junior Am qualifier at Eagle Trace GC, where his son is playing great — 2 under through 9 holes and tied for 2nd place, with five spots up for grabs and two alternate spots on the line. Despite his busy schedule, including navigating recent PGA Tour updates with new CEO Brian Rolapp taking the reins, Woods is making time to support Charlie’s golfing endeavors, because when it comes to family, his swing is always on point.

And that is exactly where we wish Charlie’s game stays, on point. Because, back in 2024, Charlie shot a disappointing 12-over 82 in the U.S. Junior Amateur at Oakland Hills. He birdied both par-5s but struggled on par-3s and par-4s, carding five double bogeys and four bogeys, leaving him with a mountain to climb on the infamous South Course, dubbed “The Monster” by Ben Hogan, to make the low 64 cut from a field of 264 players from 40 states and 35 countries.

Despite the challenging round, Charlie had drawn a crowd of around 100 spectators who eagerly followed him throughout his game. Though his famous father watched, he was powerless to offer advice due to tournament rules, leaving Charlie visibly frustrated as he covered his face with his cap after finishing his round. And the rules stay the same this year as well. So, we will wait and see how things pan out for Woods Jr. because the fates have been in his favor so far.

Charlie Woods’s recent game has been nothing short of brilliant

Just a few weeks ago, Charlie Woods showed up to the golf course with a swagger that rivaled his dad’s, and boy, did he deliver! The 16-year-old golf sensation just clinched his first American Junior Golf Association event at the Team TaylorMade Invitational, shooting an impressive 15-under 201 at the Streamsong Resort Black Course. He started the final round tied at 9-under 135 and went on to crush a 6-under 66, featuring eight birdies and just two bogeys, while closing with four straight pars.

With a three-stroke victory margin, Charlie proved he’s not just riding his dad’s coattails – he’s forging his own path. The field was stacked, with four of the top-five ranked AJGA players vying for the title, but Charlie’s s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s shone through. This win wasn’t just a fluke; Charlie’s been building his golf resume with wins like the Hurricane Junior Golf Tour’s Major Championship in June 2023 and the Last Chance Regional golf tournament later that year. And let’s not forget his unbelievable ace at the PNC Championship – the kid’s got s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s!

Competing in just his fifth AJGA event, Charlie’s rapid rise has been nothing short of remarkable. After a first-round 70 and a Tuesday 65, he was on a mission, and his final-round performance sealed the deal. So, can he keep the momentum going and qualify for the U.S. Junior Amateur?
