A big year got even better for Charlie Woods after receiving a big junior golf honour.

The 16-year-old son of 15-time major champ Tiger Woods has impressed many with his golf game in 2025. Woods won the AJGA’s Team TaylorMade in May, qualified for the U.S. Junior Amateur in July and finished T-9 at the Junior PGA in August.

Now he’s been recognised for his strong season by being named a first-team member of the Rolex Junior All-America Team by the American Junior Golf Association for the first time.

Woods joined a list of 12 golfers headlined by 17-year-old Miles Russell, who won the Rolex Junior Player of the Year for a second time. Russell is now part of an elite group of golfers to win that award multiple times that includes Tiger Woods.

Aphrodite Deng, 15, won the Rolex Junior Player of the Year on the girls side, becoming the first Canadian to do so. You can see a full list of honorees here.
