HEARTBREAKING 💔: CHARLIE WOODS DISAPPOINTED, MISSES U.S. OPEN OPPORTUNITY…….more

The disappointment weighed heavily as Tiger Woods’ teenage son, Charlie, faced a significant setback. At just 15 years old, Charlie fell short in his attempt to qualify for the esteemed 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2. This awaited opportunity for his debut in a major tournament was deferred.

His performance at the Legacy Golf & Tennis Club in Port St. Lucie, Florida, resulted in a disheartening nine-over par 81, sealing his fate. Amidst immense media and fan attention, Charlie’s bid was amidst a field of 84 competitors, with only the top five securing advancement to the next stage. Noteworthy names mingled in the mix, including Cameron Kuchar, son of PGA Tour figure Matt.

Charlie’s scorecard painted a somber picture, with a lone birdie overshadowed by four bogeys and three double bogeys. His journey through the course reflected his struggle, with a front-nine score of 40 and a back-nine tally of 41, ultimately placing him 61st in the standings.

While Tiger Woods had been a familiar presence during practice rounds, his absence during the qualifier was noted. A week fraught with events for Tiger, including news of a significant payment from the PGA Tour, unfolded amidst Charlie’s disappointment.

This setback marks another chapter in Charlie’s recent endeavors, including a victorious high school championship and an unsuccessful attempt to qualify for a PGA Tour event earlier in the year, marred by disruptive behavior from onlookers.

As preparations for the 2024 U.S. Open proceed, Tiger finds himself in an unfamiliar position, no longer exempt from participation. While uncertainty looms regarding his eligibility, his past triumphs in the U.S. Open, notably the memorable 2008 victory, underscore his legacy in the sport.
