CNN —Tiger Woods’ 15-year-old son, Charlie Woods, will compete in a pre-qualifier event Thursday in hopes of making the field for his first PGA Tour start next week.
To qualify for the PGA Tour’s Cognizant Classic, Charlie would need to advance from the pre-qualifier and then again from the event’s qualifier Monday.
The PGA Tour said just four qualifiers will advance from Monday’s event into the Cognizant Classic field.
Aside from winning a state championship, Woods and his legendary father have played together at the PGA Tour’s annual PNC Championship tournament.
“I am proud of whatever direction he chooses.”CNN has reached out to Tiger Woods for comment.
