The 2025 season continues to go from strength to strength for Charlie Woods, who just completed another strong performance in the junior division. It’s also excellent news that his legendary father, Tiger Woods, was following him throughout the event.
Woods competed between June 30 and July 2 in the Junior North & South Amateur. This is the 47th edition of the prestigious tournament hosted by Pinehurst Resort & Country Club, competing both boys and girls.
Charlie finished with a 54-hole score of 1-over that earned him a tie for 12th in a field that began with 94 players.
The younger Woods improved throughout the tournament, starting with a 2-over 72 opening round on Pinehurst No. 2. Charlie carded four birdies and six bogeys on this day.
A day later, it was time to play Pinehurst No. 8, and Charlie fared much better, with his only major complication being a double bogey on the 10th hole. He added three birdies and a bogey to his card for an even-par 72 for the round.
The final round was also played on Pinehurst No. 8. Charlie started poorly, bogeying his first three holes and adding another bogey on the 8th and a birdie on the 6th to make the turn at 3-over for the day and five over for the week.
However, he managed to find his best golf of the tournament on the back nine, where he carded five birdies and a bogey, finishing the round at 1-under and bringing his tournament score to 1-over.
Tiger Woods Seen Following Charlie
A video circulating on social media shows Charlie exchanging words with Tiger Woods after making one of his back nine birdies. Tiger can be seen riding in a golf cart, with no details of his current health being revealed.

However, the mere fact that the 15-time major champion is following his son around a golf tournament can undoubtedly be interpreted as a good sign. As you may recall, Tiger also followed Charlie around during the Florida Amateur Championship just a few weeks ago.
These have been the clearest signs of Tiger Woods’ recovery since injuring his Achilles tendon last March.
The Junior North & South Amateur is not sanctioned by the American Junior Golf Association, so Charlie won’t be able to improve his current ranking (14th). However, the result at Pinehurst definitely continues his streak of strong results, led by his victory at the TaylorMade Junior Invitational last May.
