The Woods kids are growing up.
It's an all-out family affair for the Woods' at the PNC Championship in Orlando, as Tiger Woods' eldest child, daughter Sam Woods, will be caddying for her dad in the first round of the tournament on Saturday.
Sam Woods could be seen on the bag as her father took some practice shots prior to the first round of the 36-hole event being held at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club.
It's proving to be an all-out Woods event at the 36-hole scramble, as the event famously pairs golfer with members of their family in the tournament. Charlie Woods is teaming up with his dad, meaning both of Woods' children are participating in a golf tournament with him for the first time ever. Sam Woods is 16 years old and Charlie Woods is 14.
“Sam was fantastic,” Tiger said later, according to Golfweek. “This is the first time she’s ever done this, so it couldn’t have been any more special for all of us.
“For me to have both my kids inside the ropes like this and participating and playing and being part of the game of golf like this, it couldn’t have been more special for me, and I know that we do this a lot at home, needle each other and have a great time. But it was more special to do it in a tournament like this.”
The Woods family will play this weekend as the 15-time major champion continues his recovery from an injury that was reaggravated by his plantar fasciitis. Woods most recently played at the Hero World Challenge, the tournament he hosts in Albany, Bahamas, which occurred from Nov. 30 to Dec. 3.
Team Woods finished at 8-under 64 after the first round, seven shots behind Team Kuchar.
