Woods and son Charlie, 15, tied for first in Orlando
Tiger Woods and his 15-year-old son Charlie were tied for the lead at the end of the first day of the PNC Championship in Orlando.
The pair carded a 59 in the opening round and are on 13 under along with Bernhard Langer and his son Jason Langer as well as Vijay Singh and his son Qass.
The 36-hole exhibition tournament, which includes current and former professional golfers playing with a parent or child, concludes on Sunday.
Tiger Woods, a 15-time major winner, and Charlie are making their fifth appearance at the annual event, which also allows players to use golf carts.
The duo tied for fifth last year after finishing second in 2021.
“It’s a scramble, so we’re trying to pull off each and every shot for each other,” said Tiger Woods, 48.
“I think we did that great pretty much the entire day. Charlie made pretty much most of the putts today.”
Charlie Woods added: “I didn’t hit it great, but Dad saved me on a couple of them and I rolled them in.”
Tiger Woods is playing for the first time since The Open in July – where he failed to make the cut for the third consecutive major – having had back surgery in September.
“I’m not competitive right now,” Woods told the PGA Tour website said on Friday. “But I just want to be able to have the experience again.”
Asked about an occasion when he had been beaten by Charlie, he added: “Yeah, he beat me for nine holes.
“He has yet to beat me for 18 holes. That day is coming – I’m just prolonging it for as long as I possibly can.”
