He said “He’s tough on himself, If he could just relax and play, store some of that energy, it’s good. He’s just young. He’s got a lot of Dad in him.”

Even back in December 2022, Charlie was told by his father to pay attention to the tactics using by four-time major champion Rory McIlroy’s swing.

Tiger Woods said “I told [Charlie], ‘Don’t copy my swing. Copy Rory’s’. Have you ever seen Rory off balance on a shot? “

“No. Not ever. You can swing as hard as you want, but you need to have balance. That’s one of the things my dad instilled in me, is that you should be able to balance and hold your finish until the ball rolls and stops. You can swing as hard as you want, but you need to have balance.”

Tiger is gearing up for a return to the green alongside his son in December, with the pair set to compete in the parent-child PNC Championship for the fourth consecutive year.

The event at Ritz Carlton Golf Club, Orlando, will take place two weeks after Tiger’s anticipated PGA Tour comeback at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas from December 5-8.
