December 23, 2024: Golf prodigy Charlie Woods, son of legend Tiger Woods, stole the spotlight at the PNC Championship with an incredible hole-in-one on the 176-yard par-three fourth hole at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando. The 15-year-old’s perfect seven-iron shot rolled smoothly into the cup, leaving the crowd erupting in cheers and his father overjoyed.

A Viral Celebration

Tiger Woods, the 15-time major champion, celebrated the moment with an emotional hug and playful shove, marking a proud moment in their father-son golfing journey. Speaking about the ace, Charlie said: “It was awesome! I didn’t think it went in.”

Tiger Woods described the moment as “unbelievable,” noting that Charlie had also just made his first-ever eagle on the third hole.

Team Woods’ Impressive Run

Team Woods finished with an impressive 28-under score after a 59 on Saturday and 57 on Sunday, setting a record 36-hole total. However, despite their strong performance, Team Langer, led by Bernhard Langer and his son Jason, clinched victory in a tense playoff round with an eagle putt on the first hole.
