Sam Woods is going to college! Fans who have watched the best of Tiger Woods from the mid-90s to early 2010s would have seen Tiger Woods’s eldest child grow up over the years. However, it would still be unbelievable for them to realize that Sam Woods is already 17 years old.

She is currently caddying for her father who is partnered with her brother Charlie Woods at the 2024 PNC Championship. Watching the three on the course having a good time has been a delight for every fan in the golf community.

While the tournament is still ongoing, there has been a new development in the lives of the Woods. Reports have come in stating that the young Sam Woods may have taken a major life decision that may determine her career.

As tweeted by Jeff Eisenband, it seems that she may have chosen the university she is going to study at after completing high school. The tweet read, “On the @PNCchampionship broadcast, Dan Hicks just said Tiger Woods’ daughter Sam, who is caddying for him this week, will be attending Stanford University next year. Tiger played golf for the Cardinal from 1994-1996.”

Although Sam Woods or Tiger Woods have not hinted at anything as such themselves, Dan Hicks is a reliable enough source to trust the information. That means that after completing her school at Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens, Sam might be moving to California to study at Stanford. It does not come as a surprise to the fans of Tiger Woods as the GOAT himself was enrolled in the same university. The 82X PGA Tour winner joined Stanford University in 1994 and excelled in sports among other subjects during his time there.

What is interesting though is the fact that Stanford University is not particularly known for its soccer and track teams. They are known for golf, football, swimming and other sports. Those are the sports Sam Woods indulges in at her high school. She has also been trained in golf by her father and other coaches during her childhood. Could it be that Sam Woods might be following her father’s footsteps once she starts university? Only time will tell.

For now, let’s take a look at what Sam Woods has achieved representing the Benjamin Buccaneers.

Sam Woods’s athletic achievements

Benjamin School is highly recognized for its excellent sports programs and amazing teams. Being a part of the Benjamin Buccaneers girls’ soccer team, Sam Woods had the dream to play at a regional level and help her school win. Until February 2024, the Benjamin Buccaneers were on an amazing run with a record of 17-0. However, things went south when they faced the King’s Academy Lions. Neither of the sides was able to score through the 90 minutes and the added 20 minutes of overtime. The Lions ended up winning on penalty shootouts to give the Buccaneers their first loss of the season.

The team ended up losing form and displaying mediocre performance for the remainder of the season. Sam Woods’s dreams of representing her school at the regionals just might not come true. However, she still has another shot at it during her final year at Benjamin School. Let’s see if she can achieve her dream before moving to California for further education in 2025.
