After not being able to play at the Golf Varsity Boys and Golf JV Boys, Charlie Woods finally had his moment to shine. Charlie Woods, along with his other five team members grabbed a victory at the District Championship in 2024 on October 29 at the Champions Club. The official X account of the school shared a picture of the six-member team along with their coach posing with the trophy on the course. 

Despite the win, turns out, the accolade was not a great one according to the team. The Bucs claimed the District 13-1A championship at the Championship Club at Summerfield in Stuart on Tuesday, finishing with a team score of 291—two strokes ahead of West Palm Beach’s Oxbridge Academy. Charlie Woods, for instance, scored a 1-over 73 and was placed sixth, while Pavel Tsar, who is the reigning boys golfer of the year, was placed last with a 3-over 75. 

“Wasn’t pretty but got the job done at districts,” wrote the group. The player that stood out was Andrew, who carded a 3-under 69 and grabbed the individual district’s title this year. Senior Pavel Tsar, Benjamin’s other key player and last year’s Palm Beach Post Boys Golfer of the Year, scored a 3-over 75, placing seventh. Pavel’s experience added depth to Benjamin’s lineup, ensuring they had a solid team score to pull out the win.

With collective efforts, the team did make it to the Regionals, which is scheduled to take place on Monday at the Miami Shores Golf Club, and well Jr. Woods too will be a part of the same team. Apart from the recent two setbacks, the reasons behind which are unknown, turns out school golf has been pretty humble for Charlie Woods. 

Charlie Woods wins the high school state golf championship

The Benjamin School’s boys team, featuring freshman Charlie Woods, clinched the Florida High School Athletic Association Class A state championship at Mission Resort + Club in Howey-In-The-Hills, Florida, with Woods scoring 78-76 over two days in November 2023. Charlie Woods, finished 26th in the individual ranking and was ranked fourth among the five members of the team. This was the fourth state golf title that the school clinched. Well, Charlie Woods did manage to grab a record that his father Tiger Woods never could get.

The 82X PGA Tour has unbeatable accolades in golf, but he has never been able to win a state high school championship when he was at Western High School. Charlie Woods carded 78 and 76 at the Mission Inn Resort and Club, as his father witnessed his triumph from behind the ropes. He even shared how much it meant for him to win in front of his father at the post-round presser.

“We just stay in our little world,” Charlie said at the time, acknowledging that his dad “puts me in my place” when needed. “I’ll talk about the next tee shot, and he’s like, ‘No. This is the shot we’re going to focus on. Focus up. This is what we’re gonna do.'” What are your thoughts on Junior Woods and his game? Let us know in the comments section!
