Charlie Woods, son of Tiger, shoots 81 in local qualifier and fails in bid to
play in US Open
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) --- Charlie Woods failed to qualify for his first
U.S. Open after shooting 9-over 81 on Thursday in a local qualifying event.
The 15-year-old son of Tiger Woods tied for 61st among the 74 players who
finished the 6,975-yard layout at Legacy Golf & Tennis Club. The top five
advanced to regional qualifying.
Woods shot 40 on the front nine, going bogey-double bogey on his first two
holes and following a birdie on the par-3 fifth with another double bogey. He
shot 41 on the back with three bogeys and a double bogey.
The U.S. Open is at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club's Course No. 2 in North
Carolina from June 13-16.
Woods also struggled in February in a pre-qualifier for the PGA's Cognizant
Classic, taking a 12 on one hole and shooting a 16-over 86 at Lost Lake Golf
Club in Hobe Sound.
Woods has played the 36-hole PNC Championship with his father the last four
years in a scramble format.
