Is Charlie Woods turning pro this year? The young prodigy has set the world of golf on fire thanks to his amazing performance at the 2024 PNC Championship. Partnering up with his father, Tiger Woods, he displayed some exemplary strokeplay to help his team reach the playoffs after the final round.
Woods’s 4th hole ace with a 7-iron stole the show as the father/son duo jumped up the top of the table in the event. Even during the playoffs, Charlie Woods nearly scored an excellent eagle as the ball drifted off the hole and changed direction.
Now that the tournament is over, fans would be eager to learn what’s next for in line for the 15-year-old. Well, he is still a junior player as he played for the Benjamin Buccaneers at the regional level. Woods also has some individual adventures that he has yet to conquer.

According to the South Florida Junior Golf of the PGA of America’s official website, Charlie Woods nearly captured the Martin Downs Medalist Tour victory in 2024. After two rounds of competition, he finished in a 3-way tie at -2 at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida. The playoffs didn’t go in his favor as the young Woods finished at T2. If he still qualifies for the event, there is no reason why Charlie Woods wouldn’t come back for the Martin Downs Medalist Tour event in 2025 as well.
Tiger Woods’s son also participated in the Medalist Tour – Admiral’s Cove – Village where he finished at T26. He would be eager to improve his +15 score and maybe have another go at the tournament in 2025. The South Florida Jr. PGA Championship 2024 was another tournament where Charlie Woods came incredibly close to winning. After two rounds, he finished at a score of +2 tied for 8th. The confidence he gained from his PNC Championship performance should be enough to help him improve his performance and fight for the title next season.
The last time Woods played The SFPGA Junior Cup, he was able to win the title. The 3 round event saw him win with a margin of 2 strokes. It is possible that he would want to come back to the event to defend his title in 2025. Back in September 2024, Woods was a part of the field at the SFPGA Labor Day Classic. Just like the Admiral’s Cove event, the 15-year-old went way above par ending the tournament with +12. Knowing the competitive nature of the Woods family, we might see the young man return to the event to improve his performance again.
The last event Charlie Woods played in the individual Junior Golf league was the SFPGA Tour Championship. This was probably his worst performance of the season as he finished at T35. Woods will definitely have this in his mind as he returns to the course for the same event in 2025 to improve his score of -13.

These are all the individual events Charlie Woods will probably play in 2025. But there are a few more where he will team up with other juniors. Let’s take a look at his remaining probable schedule.

Charlie Woods; the team player
Back in November 2025, Charlie Woods was a part of his high school’s team, the Benjamin Buccaneers who were playing at the district level. Thanks to his efforts and that of his remaining squad, the school managed to win the tournament and become the District Champions. Still in school for another couple of years, Woods will definitely be committed to improving this record and probably aim for state & national-level victories with the Buccaneers.
One last tournament where Charlie Woods will definitely be featured is the 2025 PNC Championship. While he still has a couple of years before turning pro, Woods will be allowed to team up with the GOAT to try to win the event once again. Having come so close to victory after being beaten by Bernhard Langer & Jason Langer, a much more fit Tiger Woods & a much more experienced Charlie Woods will be the team to beat at the father-son event in 2025.
