Charlie Woods, son of Tiger Woods, helps lead his high school golf team to a state title, while his dad eyes a return to professional golf.

Like father, like son. Tiger Woods watched from the gallery as his son, Charlie Woods, a freshman 14-year-old golfer, helped his Florida high school to a state title in golf. According to Sports Illustrated, the Benjamin School won the Florida High School Athletic Association Class 1A state title, and Charlie posted rounds of 78 and 76 during the tournament. Charlie’s scores may not have been the best, but his team’s scores were collectively good enough to win the tournament.

The younger Woods seems to have inherited his father’s unflappable cool under pressure. Despite finishing 17th at the National Championships, he appears unphased by the pressure that comes with being the son of Tiger Woods. His father caused an unintentional stir when he caddied 54 holes of golf for his son at the event. It was speculated that Tiger could look to return to PGA competition soon.

It seems the speculation was correct. Tiger Woods has committed to the 2023 Hero World Challenge field. According to ESPN, Woods is currently preparing to play in the Hero World Challenge, an event in the Bahamas that he hosts. A post from the Golf Digest official account on Twitter/X indicates that Woods will be participating in the event.

It has been a long time since Woods has played on a PGA Tour event. The last one was at The Masters in April 2023. Woods had ankle surgery to fuse bones in an attempt to fix arthritis problems Woods was having after a single-car accident in 2021. Woods had not made an appearance in his tournament since 2019.

Woods told the Associated Press earlier in November that his ankle is fine. “Where they fused my ankle, I have absolutely zero issue whatsoever. That pain is completely gone. It’s the other areas that have been compensated for. But all the surrounding areas is where I had all my problems and I still do. So you fix one, others have to become more hypermobile to get around it, and it can lead to some issues.”

It seems that despite all the issues Tiger Woods has faced, he is still determined to return to competitive golf. We look forward to seeing him at the 2023 Hero World Challenge field.
