‘Looks Like a Tour Pro Already’: Tiger Woods’ Son Charlie Woods’ Viral Video Leaves Golf World in Awe

As the US Open kicks off on Thursday, Tiger Woods is one of the biggest names that will be missing from this year’s field. The 47-year-old, who last appeared at the Masters in April, is currently recuperating at home following his ankle surgery.

In Woods’ absence, however, it is his son, Charlie, who is winning the hearts of golf fans on the internet. Let’s jump in to learn more!

Tiger Woods’ son, Charlie, shows off his sensational golfing chops

14-year-old Charlie Woods is currently cooking up a storm in the golf world, much like his 15-time major-winning father back in the day. Earlier this month, he had nabbed the Hurricane Junior Golf Tour’s Major Championship in Royal Palm Beach, Florida, winning by an incredible eight strokes! The stellar victory was also Charlie’s second in four events so far in the 2023 season on the Hurricane Tour. He had previously claimed the South Florida Junior Open in February.

Now, Charlie’s golfing acumen has come to light once again as he was spotted at a course just 25 miles away from LACC, the venue for this year’s US Open. In a video shared by @SI_Golf on Twitter,  the young golfer can be seen practicing his swing at the renowned Riviera Country Club in LA.

As evidenced by the viral clip, Charlie is definitely following in the footsteps of his golfing legend of a father. Fans couldn’t help but notice the speed in his swing. Some even opined that Charlie mirrored a young Tiger Woods with his golfing skills.

One golf enthusiast even noted the eerie resemblance to World No. 3 Rory McIlroy‘s swing. After all, Woods had himself advised his son to follow the Northern Irishman’s skills closely. “Don’t copy my swing. Copy Rory’s,” Charlie recounted his father as saying during the 2022 Hero World Challenge.

After golfing instructor Lucas Wald shared Charlie’s clip from Riviera on Instagram, one fan commented, “this kid is gonna be so good. i wouldn’t put it past him to be on tour and be a star.” Meanwhile, another termed his swing as “insanely good.”
