Woods and his son Charlie (13) will participate in the PNC Championship held at the Ritz Carlton Golf Club (par 72) in Orlando, Florida for two days from the 17th (local time) for the third consecutive year and challenge for a win. Professional players and their families compete in teams of two, and players must have won a major competition or the Players Championship to be invited. The family should not be professional players. Woods and his son, who ranked 7th in 2020, jointly scored 15 under par only in the final round last year, and took second place (25 under par, 119 strokes), two strokes behind the winning team John Daly and his son.
Woods has participated in the major tournaments this year, the Masters, PGA Championship and The Open, but his physical condition has not yet fully recovered. Woods was scheduled to participate in the Hero World Challenge hosted by his foundation earlier this month, but withdrew due to pain in the sole of his right foot. Woods appears on the field for the first time in five months through the event competition ‘The Match’ held last week, and then appears in front of fans for two weeks in a row.
Even in The Match, Woods still couldn’t show his normal skills. However, he is attracting extraordinary attention from fans just by standing on the field with Charlie. Woods recently said, “Charlie sent a drive shot farther than me two weeks ago. I think the time to beat me will come soon.”
A total of 20 teams will participate in this year’s PNC Championship. Last year’s winning team Daly and Son, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas, etc. will participate, and Nellie Korda (above USA) will team up with her father Petr Corda, a former tennis star player, following last year. Annika Sorenstam (Sweden) will compete alongside her 11-year-old son, Will McGee, while Jim Furyk (USA) and Faudrig Harrington (Ireland) will also compete with her son.
