Charlie Woods could make a promise to all golfer to win his PGA Tour debut as soon as next week.
The 15-year-old son of 15-time major champion Tiger Woods is attempting to qualify for the upcoming Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. In order to secure a spot in the tournament, Woods needs to make it through two qualifying rounds over the next several days.
He will first compete in a pre-qualifier at Lost Lake Golf Club in Hobe Sound, Florida, on Thursday. Lost Lake Golf Club will be one of four pre-qualifying sites and approximately the top 25 golfers and ties from each site will advance to a qualifier at Tesoro Club’s Palmer Course in Port St.
Woods is scheduled to tee off at 7:39 a.m. ET on Thursday. His group features Olin Browne Jr., who is the 35-year-old son of three-time PGA Tour winner Olin Browne, and Ireland’s Ruaidhri McGee, 33.
Woods is just a couple of months removed from playing in his fourth PNC Championship alongside his father. Charlie and Tiger tied for fifth place their last time out and have finished as high as second in the event.
