Tiger Woods thinks his son’s speed has gone up
Tiger Woods shared insights into his son’s game since last year’s PNC Championships. During the pre-event conference at the Ritz Carlton Golf Club on Friday, December 15, Woods was asked a few questions about Charlie’s progress. According to ASAP Sports, Woods said, “I think that his speed has gone dramatically up since last year but I think that more than anything is just the fact that he’s growing so fast the aches and pains of growing at just teenage life.”
The 15-time major champion also said “He’s one tee further back [than last year]. He’s just one tee ahead of me, which is fine because he’s hitting it past me now.” Describing his son’s evolving game he added, “I sort of didn’t have the speed that he has at that age. But also, I didn’t have the equipment, either. The equipment is so different.”
