Charlie Woods, who is 15 years old, hit his first hole-in-one Sunday at the PNC Championship. The ace took place on the par-3 fourth hole in Orlando, a 175-yard shot.
Charlie’s father Tiger, who has won a record 82 PGA events and is second all-time with 15 majors, was his partner for the event, which primarily pairs major champions with family members.
The younger Woods did not seem to realize what he had done, his reaction trailing that of fans in the gallery. It’s worth watching the shot—and his excitement upon realizing what he had done, as well as Tiger’s jubilation during the resulting celebration.

“He beat me for nine holes, has yet to beat me for 18 holes yet,” Tiger said earlier this week. “That day is coming, I’m just prolonging it as long as I possibly can.”
The 15-year-old does not have any official endorsement deals, though retired wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald welcomed him as a brand partner of Greyson Clothiers last year before deleting the post.
The PNC Championship has a purse of $1.085 million. Team Woods was tied for the lead, 23 under par, after 12 holes Sunday.
