Charlie Woods’ Presence at the LACC Might Have Been a Relief to Some Tiger Woods’ Fans But It Hints Towards a Much Bigger Problem

While there is a legion of superstar golfers at the Los Angeles Country Club this week, all eyes veered toward one person on the field. No, it wasn’t the legendary Tiger Woods but his son Charlie Woods.

Indeed, the 14-year-old’s image at the LACC was enough to get people talking. While it was a refreshing sight, it suggests discouraging news about his father.

Why Charlie Woods’ appearance spells bad news for Tiger Woods

Despite non-involvement in the US Open, Charlie Woods managed to grab the headlines after he was pictured attending the prestigious tournament. It was followed by clips of his beautiful drive at the Riviera Country Club near LACC, which left many gushing over the promising talent.

However, while a glimpse of Charlie put a smile on many faces, some were disappointed to see him alone. While the boy remains close to his father, the legendary golfer wasn’t anywhere near the course.

It means that Woods’ condition hasn’t got much better in the last few months. While accompanying his son to the US Open would have been a no-brainer, the 47-year-old’s absence hints at his persistent troubles.

But what got the fifteen-time major championship winner to miss some of the most prominent golf tournaments this year?

Tiger Woods’ injury struggles in 2023

The 82-time PGA Tour winner survived a treacherous car crash in February 2021, which left an ever-lasting wound on the golfer. He took months to recuperate from the grave injuries, but at the outset of the 2023 season, looked raring to go.

Closely picking tournaments to monitor his health, Woods participated in the year’s first major championship, the Masters Tournament. Back at the famed Augusta National, the former World No. 1 made it to the weekend yet again, albeit finishing off with a worrying limp.

The pain that followed left Woods with no other option but to withdraw from the tournament. He quickly chose to put an end to his troubles by undergoing fusion surgery on his ankle.

While a timeline wasn’t set before, it seems like Woods has been out for a long time. The golf icon has missed two of the four major championships during his time off the field. With only one major left to play this year, can Woods return to action and mesmerize the audience like he has done before for so many years? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
