Tiger Woods and 13-year-old Charlie play and practice a lot of golf together. Both have shown similar competitive spirit on the field. So it was natural for anyone to wonder how much Charlie pushes his father on the greens.
After the first round of the 2022 PNC Championship, the media flocked to Team Woods. Charlie talked about pushing Tiger as much as he can. However, he specified that he knew when and where to stop.
The reporter then turned to Tiger Woods and asked him how he dealt with the ‘oomph’ that Charlie gave him on the field. Tiger answered that while he doesn’t mind it, he draws a line after a certain point. He smiled as he explained:
Well, Team Woods is a dynamic duo.
“But just to have their support and their love…” - Tiger Woods on his children’s support
It is no secret that Tiger Woods has had a rough two years since his horrific car crash in 2021. After months of doubts over his future in golf, Tiger finally showed signs of making a proper comeback to competitive golf in late 2022.
After the first round at the PNC Championship, he was asked how much his two children, Sam and Charlie, have supported him in this difficult time. The hands-on father replied that they did so “each and every day”.
Tiger had a very emotional response even though he tried not to get “teary-eyed”. He said:
Certainly, having the support of one’s loved ones means the world. To the much delight of fans, Woods has stated that he will be playing in 2023. However, owing to his health, his focus will mainly be on the major tournaments.
It is expected that Tiger would take part in the Masters, the PGA Championship and the Open Championship next year. He might also participate in the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. Nevertheless, wherever he chooses to play, just seeing him return to the greens will be a treat to watch.
