Earlier this month, Charlie Woods gave the golfing word a possible glimpse into the future after a career-best round of 68 at the Notah Begay III Junior National Golf Championship. As if the pressure of carrying the same surname (and mannerisms) as a 15-time Major champion wasn’t enough, he did so with dad Tiger on the bag.
