‘He’ll Be a Beast’: Charlie Woods Makes Golf World Forget Past Failures With Dominant Display of S𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s

How good is Charlie Woods’s swing? The teenager’s similarity with his dad has already generated enough buzz since the 2020 PNC Championship. Recently, Nuclear Golf posted a clip of Charlie Woods hitting a drive. It looked like Woods Jr. was in the range practicing for his upcoming tournament. It appears the teenage Woods has garnered a fanbase with his s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s alone.

One user tweeted, “Watched this 82 times in a row.” Woods Jr. already outdrives his father, a fact that Tiger Woods himself admitted. At last year’s PNC championship, the 15-year-old crushed a 300+-yard drive. Some already believe Charlie Woods will be a successful pro when he reaches the top tier of men’s professional golf. “Powerful, clean, yet controlled. He’ll be a beast on the Tour when he makes it,” one user wrote while talking about his swing.

While his swing mostly got a positive review from fans, some had a few suggestions too. They believed Woods was only 15, and his swing needed more polishing for better accuracy and length. One of them commented, “I’d like to see that left front shoulder stay linear for a beat longer before clearing.”

Others were more cautious. Although they praised his swing, they were also quick to remind everyone that a swing alone doesn’t determine a future career. Or the success of a player. One person tweeted, “ The tour is full of great swings.” Seconding that, another commented, “You gotta get the ball in the hole to make the bucks.” But Charlie Woods knows all this. He is certainly not resting on his swing to elevate himself to the top.

Charlie Woods’s comments show his maturity

2024 has been a series of ups and downs for the youngster. His hopes for qualifying at a PGA Tour event, the Cognizant Classic, ended up in smoke. Neither did his flirtation with fate for the U.S. Open spots yield any result. Then, Charlie Woods earned the medalist honor, qualifying for the US Junior Amateur.

However, at Oakland Hills, the 15-year-old crumbled. He was later seen holding his face in his hands in disappointment. But it took only a week for the 15-year-old to erase all that. Woods Jr. bounced back strongly with a victory at the South Florida PGA Junior Cup, which is considered one of the eight majors on the PGA Junior Tour. “I wanted to redeem myself, and I feel great about how I played. I wanted it so bad,” Charlie Woods said.

So, the Benjamin School student surely does not rest on his father’s legacy or his past achievements. The fact that Charlie Woods is willing to put himself out there in full public view, knowing the risk of failure, also says something about his attitude toward the game.
