Charlie earned his first AJPA invitational victory back in May as a huge outsider.

While his illustrious father has caddied for him at various junior events.

Charlie attends The Benjamin School, an elite prep school in Palm Beach, Florida.

Unsurprisingly he has excelled in high school golf and is among his class’ key players.

Woods’ Benjamin coach Toby Harbeck has opened up about the prodigy’s progress.

Harbeck told The Palm Beach Post, “I’ve got those three juniors who have played on the team and have quite a lot of experience.

“My first three guys are going to be really good.”

Harbeck then gushed over how Woods was handling the heightened expectations placed upon him.

“Charlie knows a lot of the attention is going to be on him and he knows not to put himself in an uncomfortable position,” Harbeck continued.

“But his teammates are protective of him.”

On how exactly Woods has managed to improve, Harbeck was clear.

“Charlie has come a long way in two years,” he insisted.

“He’s lost 10 pounds and is ready to take on that No1 role.

“When Tiger and Elin show up to watch, Tiger is a different person than what you see on TV.

“Just like Jack [Nicklaus] was.”

Charlie can expect to spend plenty of time on the road next year.

Harbeck vowed, “You can’t get any better by beating the same teams every day.”

Charlie is the son of Woods and ex-wife Elin Nordegren.

His older sister Sam, 18, has also pursued athletics.

Rather than golf, however, she focuses on soccer and track and field.
