From such a stick such a splinter.
Charlie, 11-year-old son of Tiger Woods, made headlines even before this weekend’s PNC Championship and his swing was all over Twitter with his Eagle on Saturday. He hit his first 180-yard shot and then nailed a putt.
The duo finished -10 on the day, tied for sixth place. Matt Kuchar and his 12-year-old son Cameron take the lead at -14.
The event is reserved for grand champions and a family member.
Padraig Harrington added publicity over the weekend saying Charlie Woods would be the story of the tournament.
“What I do find interesting: I think Tiger became a professional slightly before me or at the same time as me,” Harrington said Friday, according to ESPN. “This is the first tournament I’ve played in which Tiger Woods plays because he’s not the star of the show.
“It simply came to our notice then. He’s not the star of the show this week. And that’s a lot between players and professionals. We all go downstairs and everyone stops to see Charlie. “Out of the way, Tiger.” The buzz that has been created is amazing “.
So far he has not been wrong.
