Tiger Woods enjoyed a family moment on the course at the PNC Championship in Orlando, Florida, returning to competition with his two children by his side.
The 48-year-old played alongside his 15-year-old son, Charlie, at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club on December 21–22, 2024. His 18-year-old daughter, Sam, joined them as Tiger’s caddie for the second year in a row. Photos from the event sparked plenty of fan reactions, with many pointing out how much Sam resembles Tiger’s ex-wife, Elin Nordegren.
Woods shares Sam and Charlie with Nordegren. The couple married in 2004 and divorced in 2010. Sam, born June 18, 2007, was named Sam Alexis partly in honor of Tiger’s late father, who often called him “Sam” instead of Tiger. In 2022, Sam praised her father during his Golf Hall of Fame induction, highlighting his resilience through surgeries and recovery.
Unlike Charlie, Sam has chosen not to pursue golf. Tiger has said she associates the sport with how often it took him away when she was younger. Charlie, however, continues to make headlines. During the final round, he scored his first-ever hole-in-one on a par-3 using a 7-iron, sharing a hug with his proud dad.
Team Woods finished runners-up after a playoff, with Team Langer taking the title.
