Tiger’s teenage son, Charlie Woods, misses out on qualifying for the U.S. Junior Amateur.
Charlie Woods, the 15-year-old son of 15-time Grand Slam champion Tiger Woods, shot 10-over 80 on Tuesday and missed out on qualifying for the U.S. Junior Amateur.
The teen Woods, who opened with an 82 on Monday, made one birdie, four bogeys, two double bogeys and a triple to finish on 22-over 162 for 36 holes at Oakland Hills Country Club in suburban Detroit.
He finished near the bottom in the field of 264 golfers, 18 strokes off the pace of 64 players who qualified for match-play competition. Tiger Woods walked the course watching over his son, but was not allowed to caddie for Charlie due to tournament rules.
The winner of Saturday’s 36-hole final will advance to the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont. Tiger Woods won the U.S. Junior Amateur in 1991, 1992 and 1993. The only other player to win the tournament multiple times was Jordan Spieth in 2009 and 2011.
The elder and younger Woods have played together at the PNC Championship the past four years and finished second in the parent-child tournament in 2021.
