Tiger Woods might be off the course for some time now, however, his presence is felt one way or the other. The impression the 15-time major winner has left on golf can be resonated by the fact that people try to pull off what Woods had done in his career. The most recent name to that list is of DJ Khaled.

Besides music, as many know, Khaled is an avid golfer. He recently he took to reenacting one of Woods’ most iconic putts, sending the internet into a frenzy. Meanwhile, a less deliberate and more natural act of imitation by the golf legend’s son Charlie Woods is also on offer, serving as the perfect replica of his father!

Tiger Woods is planning a much-awaited and never-before-seen league in golf. The TGL will start from January 2024 and its promotions are going on in full swing. DJ Khaled, who is currently serving as one of the promoters of the league, is in a masterful marketing strategy mood. He recently promoted TGL by imitating a classic shot taken by Woods at the 2005 Masters.

Khaled mimicked the stunning birdie chip at the 16th hole that helped Tiger Woods secure his fourth Green Jacket. However, the musician could only pull off the shot through what fans deemed to be tons of video editing and special effects.

His celebration, however, was on point with that of the 82-time PGA Tour winner. One could say that the use of technology for the promotional video by DJ Khaled was a way to involve the high-tech and advanced quality of TGL. Whatever the case might be, the musician made the iconic chip way better than expected.

However, he has one competitor who has truly imbibed Woods’ mannerisms. That too, without planning or intending to do so. The legendary golfer’s son Charlie Woods had a similar reaction to one of his recent putts. While Khaled purposely impersonated Woods, Charlie had that come naturally.
