Charlie Woods continues to make a significant impact.
Tiger Woods‘ 15-year-old son secured a spot in his inaugural United States Golf Association (USGA) championship by topping the qualifiers for the U.S. Junior Amateur at the Eagle Trace Golf Club qualifier in Coral Springs, Florida.
Woods shot a resilient 1-under 71 to qualify for the event, overcoming a bumpy start with a bogey and double bogey on his initial two holes.

Subsequently, he secured five birdies, propelling him to the leaderboard’s summit.
He was among the four qualifiers who advanced to the championship.
“I didn’t play great my first two holes, but I played really good for the last 16,” Woods said, according to the Associated Press. “I just told myself not to make any more bogeys or doubles and I took advantage of some nice birdie looks when I had them.”
Last week, a sighting captured a tender moment between the younger Woods and his father at Pinehurst No. 2 during the U.S. Open. The 48-year-old was seen practicing for the major, finishing at 7-over and missing the cut, while sharing an embrace with his son.

Charlie attempted to secure a spot in this year’s U.S. Open but posted a 9-over 81 at Legacy Golf & Tennis Club in Port St. Lucie, Florida. His 61st place finish out of 71 golfers at the qualifier meant he narrowly missed the chance to compete in North Carolina alongside his father.

This followed his failure to qualify for the Cognizant Classic in February.
Despite missing out on two PGA competitions, Charlie now has an opportunity to emulate his father’s feat — clinching the U.S. Junior Amateur title at the age of 15.
In 1991, Tiger became the youngest golfer to win the event, marking a remarkable achievement at that time.
Charlie, who played a pivotal role in securing The Benjamin School’s victory in a Florida high school state championship last autumn, expressed that this USGA event holds immense significance for him.
“The USGA means a lot to me,” he said, according to the AP. “I want to win USGA championships and hopefully one day the U.S. Open.”
