Tiger reveals Charlie’s lowest ever score ahead of PNC Championship appearance
In the lead up to the 2021 PNC Championship where Tiger Woods will be playing with his son Charlie, the elder Woods sat down with Golf Digest and answered thirteen rapid fire questions about a myriad of topics.

Arguably the most noteworthy topic discussed was the state of Charlie Woods’ golf game.
Woods revealed that his son broke 80 for the first time at Medalist Golf Club in Florida; a course where many professional golfers train in the offseason. Tiger stated that Charlie played from “the tees further back” which insinuates they were most likely somewhere in between the junior tees and the tips.
Tiger also stated that his son’s swing speed is greater than his own as he continues to recover from his car accident earlier this year.
While it is impossible to compare Charlie to his dad, it is inevitable that his golf game will be highly monitored in the years to come; whether fair or unfair.
All eyes will be on both Tiger and Charlie this weekend at The Ritz-Carlton GC in Orlando, Florida.

Collin Morikawa has had plenty of success with a blade in his hands over the course of his young career, but after a lean spell on the greens lately, it appears that the 27-year-old is ready to try something new.
The California-native began the year with his TaylorMade TP Soto before switching to a Logan Olson proto last month. Now at this week’s Masters, Morikawa has been spotted with a Spider Tour X, the same flatstick that Scottie Scheffler will be using at Augusta.
The move would represent a big change, but it has been a very frustrating year on the greens for Morikawa, who will hope the TaylorMade mallet can offer him a similar upturn in fortune to that of Scheffler. In 2024, Morikawa ranks 164th for Strokes Gained: Putting, and 157th for Total Putting.
We’ll keep an eye whether Morikawa puts the mallet into action on day one of the Masters.

Fresh off of winning $2.76 million on UConn’s victory over Purdue on Monday night, Barstool Sports’ founder Dave Portnoy has just placed a massive bet for this year’s Masters.
Tweeting on Wednesday morning, Portnoy revealed that he has placed $300,000 on Scottie Scheffler to win this year’s Masters at odds of +450.
Should he win, that’d be a total payout of $1.65 million.
Keep the momentum. For people who wanted me to hedge for is why I didn't. So I could take another shot at glory. #DKPartner #scotty pic.twitter.com/X9a0X8HOTZ

Scheffler is one of the shortest priced favorites of recent times at the Masters, and is looking for what would be his third win in his last four events.

Brooks Koepka was asked if a 59 was possible at this year’s Masters. His answer did not disappoint
During Brooks Koepka’s pre-tournament press conference for this week’s Masters Tournament, the five-time major champion was asked a bit of a silly question and gave a brilliant response.
Q. It sounds like the course is already pretty dialed this week, but under softer or optimal scoring conditions do you think 59 is obtainable on this golf course?
BROOKS KOEPKA: Have you played here?
Q. Not yet.
BROOKS KOEPKA: I can tell by the question.
Q. What number is attainable in your mind? 63’s the low.
BROOKS KOEPKA: I mean, now, anything’s attainable. But, yeah, if you want to go play the members tees and maybe play like 15 holes, yeah, I could do that.
With the course record being 63, it’s somewhat unclear why the reporter thought a soft golf course would be enough to result in a score four shots better than the record.
