The PGA junior major was won by Charlie Woods, son of Tiger Woods.

On Thursday, Charlie Woods rebounded remarkably after a discouraging first appearance in the United States Junior Amateur by triumphantly clinching the South Florida Jr. PGA Cup on his home turf in Florida.

The South Florida PGA Junior Tour’s roster includes eight majors, one of which is “The Cup”. This distinguished 54-hole tournament showcased the talents of 88 elite junior golfers from around the globe.

The unruly fan behavior during Charlie’s appearance necessitated Tiger and additional police personnel involvement, detracting from his performance somewhat.

At Oakland Hills, Woods placed 240th out of 264 players. In his first Junior Am appearance, Trevor Gutschewski emerged victorious and became the lowest-ranked champion ever at No.3,570 in the world rankings.

In his final round, Woods finished strong with a score of 73 and secured his win against opponents Brooks Hansen and Trey Farnsworth through well-executed dagger birdies on Nos.10 and 12. Meanwhile, Eva Lye emerged victorious on the girls’ side of things at the tournament.
