Jon Rahm Mighty Impressed With Charlie Woods’ Talent: ‘Certainly a Lot More Than I Did at the Age of 12′

December 2021 was a game-changing year for 12-year-old Charlie Woods. Although he shares genes with the legendary Tiger Woods, the man who changed the face of golf and propelled it to a global level, Charlie’s skills at such a young age have won the hearts of the golf community. Since his second appearance on the PNC Championship last year, many professionals have lauded him for his skills and lately, Jon Rahm joined the list.

Rahm has been out of the spotlight and on a break for quite some time now. In need of some time to rejuvenate after a stressful and dramatic year, he announced a break for himself. In fact, so extreme was his tiredness, that he said, “This is the first time in my life that I don’t want to see a golf club.” However, it’s all justified when we take a look back at the whirlwind of a year that he had. From contracting covid-19 twice to winning a major and to top it off, becoming a father!

Nevertheless, the current world-number-one is back, ready to tackle another season with the same zest and commitment that he had shown last year. And we’re desperately looking forward to watching him play as he competes for his season’s first at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Kapalua, beginning on Thursday. There, in an interview, Rahm spoke about a lot of things, including Tiger and Charlie’s PNC appearance. Here is what he had to say-

Talking about watching the duo perform, Rahm said, “Of course I watched, I’m a golf nut!” He went on to talk about the special ‘father-son experience’ and ‘connection’ that he wishes to be able to have with his son Kepa. He is, of course, less than a year old at the moment, but it’s never too soon to plan for your children, is it?

In conversation about Charlie, Rahm had very little, yet meaningful stuff, to say. “He’s got a lot of talent. Certainly a lot more than I did at the age of 12, “ he laughs. He added his own little prediction for the youngster and said, “If he keeps working hard- which I’m sure he will- I wouldn’t doubt one second we’ll see him one day maybe sitting here.”

Those are some big words coming from another big man himself!
