Charlie Woods is finally showing that he is Tiger Woods’s son after all, bouncing back in style after failing to qualify for the US Open earlier this month. The 16-year-old missed out on local qualifying for the prestigious tournament for the second year running, posting a three-over 75 at Wellington Golf Club on May 8, seven shots short of advancing to the 36-hole final stage. Despite this setback, Charlie’s determination and talent are evident, especially considering he’s one of a record 10,202 entries for the US Open. However, Charlie turned his disappointment into determination with a solid performance in the first round of…

The digital world can be a wild place. With social media, it’s become easier for scammers to impersonate celebrities and trick fans out of their money. Many people have fallen victim to online scams, losing cash and personal data. On that same note, recently, golfers in Tiger Woods’s TGL team have taken to social media to warn about a surge in fake accounts impersonating them. In their latest Instagram story, TGL’s LAGC team revealed something scary and warned fans about an impersonator account that’s falsely messaging people about giveaway prizes. “We’ve been alerted that an impersonator account is falsely messaging people about…
The third men’s major, the U.S. Open, is almost upon us; however, there’s little sign of Tiger Woods. In fact, there’s none. The golfer, having undergone Achilles surgery, has missed the 2025 season so far. In 2024, he played in all four majors and missed the cut in three. Additionally, he recorded his career-worst score at the Masters (16-over 304). Given his lack of presence and poor performance, the golfer has fallen to his career worst OWGR: 1,341. However, his performance has been affected by both the surgeries and injuries—especially the one he dealt with in 2013. The story starts with…
Rory McIlroy completed his long-awaited career Grand Slam when he clinched Masters glory at Augusta last month, while the finishing touches were also being put to another of the Northern Irishman’s projects. Having received his Green Jacket and celebrated with his wife Erica Stoll and daughter Poppy at Augusta, McIlroy jetted back to the UK with his family. He revealed last week that one of his first stops had been to Wentworth, home of the famous private golf club in Surrey, where it costs £200,000 to be a member. The club is surrounded by the Wentworth Estate, which has become the…
Rory McIlroy is set to miss his 3rd signature event of the year, with no known reasons. Rory McIlroy is giving The Memorial Tournament in Ohio a miss this year, marking his first absence since 2017. After already skipping The Sentry and RBC Heritage, it’s clear he’s being choosy about his schedule. Following a tied-47th finish at the US PGA Championship — where that non-conforming driver drama unfolded — McIlroy’s taking a two-week breather before jumping back into action at the Canadian Open on June 5, all in preparation for the US Open at Oakmont. There must be some consequences for…
The only player widely recognized as a true competitor who could challenge Tiger Woods’s dominance among golf’s all-time greats is none other than Ernie Els. Els and Woods’s relationship has always been a complex blend of admiration and rivalry. “The talent of the man is just amazing. The shots that he played and the best closer I’ve ever seen in my life.” Els said in an interview with Graham Bensinger. While Els openly praises Woods as the most talented player and the best closer he’s ever seen, he does not shy away from being brutally honest about Woods’s game. Like I said, their…
Comparing the accomplishments of Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, of course, will ignite some kind of fire. While Tiger Woods’s 2019 Masters win was iconic and resonated way beyond the sport, his legacy would not have been harmed had he come up one stroke short. But for Rory McIlroy, everything was on the line. His win at the 2025 Masters overjoyed fans to tears and left broadcasters feeling exhilarated. “It really was human”—is what the iconic broadcaster, Jim Nantz, expressed when asked about McIlroy winning. And when Nantz weighs in, the golf world listens. Tiger Woods’s 2019 Masters victory was, by all accounts, one of the…

Scheffler, who had just climbed to world number one before he…
The 2025 season witnessed two of the most adrenaline-filled majors, with the best of the OWGR taking the title home. But despite the iconic performance and historic achievements, it felt incomplete. Reason? Tiger Woods was not there. Earlier this year, he shared an update about undergoing back surgery. The hopes of him teeing off at Augusta were still alive, but a new setback in the form of a ruptured left Achilles interrupted that. Even after skipping the PGA Championship, the golf world hoped for an update. And now, there is one! Woods’s doctor, Dr. Charlton, has shared that Woods is expected…
Tiger Woods has always been very careful in guiding his son through the game of golf. Inspired by his late father, Earl Woods, the GOAT prepares Charlie Woods for mental challenges in golf by employing distraction techniques similar to those his father used. In a 2022 interview, Woods explained, “It’s getting to a point where I can’t get in his head, and then no one else can get in there, either.” That’s a good thing. But, you know what’s even better? His son is possibly adapting some Rory McIlroy moves. Tiger Woods’s advice to his son came in late 2022 when the GOAT advised his son: “I told [Charlie],…
The Achilles injury has not stopped Tiger Woods from continuing to work on his other ventures outside of competitive golf. These include golf course design, an activity that Woods and his company, TGR Design, have recently revived. The 15-time major champion recently released a promotional video showing him at the construction site of his latest project, the Bluejack Ranch golf course in Aledo, Texas. It is a private residential club that will include a golf course among other amenities. Woods already designed a course for Bluejack in Montgomery, Texas (Bluejack National), which was built between 2014 and 2016. The start of construction of the…
A resurfaced video from 2007 has reignited interest in the iconic friendship between two of the greatest athletes of all time: Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. Captured during a pro-am event at the Wachovia Championship at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, the clip shows Jordan sinking a putt and immediately mimicking Woods’ signature fist pump celebration, a moment that drew laughter from the crowd and highlighted the chemistry between two fierce competitors at the top of their games. Good chance Tiger hit MJ with one too many fist pumps, and he took that personally. A great moment from their practice round…
But it’s not in the sport of golf. Like father, like daughter! Tiger Woods’ eldest child, Sam Alexis, 17, marked a major milestone on May 16. She graduated from The Benjamin School in Palm Beach County, FL, according to The Palm Beach Post. That means that Woods is at the beginning of his empty nester years. Son Charlie, 16, is a part of the class of 2027, so he has a few years to go before graduation. Sam will be heading to Stanford University in the fall, according to her alma mater’s Instagram post. The teen is following in her father’s footsteps as…

Tiger Woods‘s mission to surprise his fans has turned into dust. After weeks of speculation around his indoor golf league, TGL, a recent trademark application shed light on a potential new team while Woods was away from the greens.TGL Holdings LLC has filed for a trademark for “Motor City Golf Club,” sparking rumors that Detroit could be the next city to join the league. The Ford family was spotted attending TGL matches earlier this year, adding fuel to the speculation. Now, an insider has leaked crucial information on it, and fans are gobbling it up. Mike Sullivan, Founder of Metro Detroit Golfers, took…
Look, nobody expected Tiger Woods, still recovering from a ruptured Achilles, to be in the field for next month’s 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont. And it’s stretching belief to the breaking point to think he would be able to compete at a high level even if he were healthy. But it’s still a bit jarring to once again see a qualifying field without Woods’ name in it, and it’s a sign of where golf is headed. The USGA, which governs the U.S. Open, has the ability to hand out special exemptions — golden tickets if you will — that give…
The two players faltered on the final day after appearing in contention. Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau are both with LIV Golf. (Image: Getty) Brandel Chamblee has again taken aim at LIV Golf after both Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau failed to challenge Scottie Scheffler over the closing holes at PGA Championship. The world No.1 fired a level-par 71 to finish 11-under-par, and was able to cruise down the final hole as he finished five clear of the field. However, the tournament appeared in the balance earlier in the round as Rahm surged. After Scheffler shot two over par for his first nine, the Spaniard was briefly with…

After winning the 2025 PGA Championship, Scheffler is now just two majors away (U.S. Open, The Open Championship) from the career Grand Slam.

Scottie Scheffler reminded the golf world why he is the number one ranked player in the world on Sunday. Scheffler won the 2025 PGA Championship by five strokes over several golfers, leaving little drama. It was his third major championship of his relatively young career. Scheffler had previously won the Masters twice (2022, 2024). A day after his victory at Quail Hollow, the PGA Tour dropped a video on X, formerly Twitter. The nearly two-minute video primarily features Tiger Woods explaining Scheffler’s greatness. Even Tiger Woods can’t deny Scottie Scheffler’s elite ball-striking 👏 pic.twitter.com/FJo6FQz0Fu — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) May 19, 2025 “We see shots into the greens…
14 PGA Tour official wins, 2 more in the Hero World Challenge, an Olympic Gold medal, and a long future ahead. Scottie Scheffler‘s resume shines through in an age where fans are desperate for a Tiger Woods-like dominant player. He may not be as enthusiastic as the legend, but Scheffler has certainly left a mark on the history of golf. Still only 28, there is no question he might achieve many more victories. Perhaps even outshine his idol’s records in the sport. But is he also living life king-size just like Woods? Over the last few years, Scheffler has earned over $145 million…
Pádraig Harrington looked at Rory McIlroy’s run during the opening round at Quail Hollow and muttered, “Even for Rory, the high that he got – you have to have some comedown.” The “comedown” for Rory McIlroy manifests in a tilted head, slumped and sagging shoulders, and absolute silence from his side. However, for a golfer who has achieved his career Grand Slam, the golf world expects a few things from him, like speaking to the media. Does the Northern Irishman do that? No–and that’s the issue. Rory McIlroy’s troubles at Quail Hollow began with a 2-over par in the first…
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – One year ago, Scottie Scheffler was stuffed in the back of a squad car, charged with multiples crimes and stretched for his second-round tee time at the PGA Championship in a jail cell. Along with a mug shot in an orange jumpsuit that became a popular Halloween costume, Scheffler has two Green Jackets and now owns the Green Mile at Quail Hollow Club. One year later, Scheffler took no prisoners in closing in even-par 71 to win the 107th PGA Championship by five strokes over Bryson DeChambeau, Harris English and Davis Riley on Sunday and collect his third major championship.…
