Hey everyone, so I was watching the PNC Championship the other day, and I got super curious about who was caddying for Charlie Woods. I mean, we all know Tiger was there with his daughter, Sam, as his caddie, but who was helping out Charlie? I started digging around and wanted to share what I found with you all.
First off, I watched the championship replays multiple times. It’s always cool to see Tiger and Charlie play together, right? This year was their fifth time playing as a team, and it’s always a big deal. But I was really trying to focus on who was on the bag for Charlie. I noticed that in past events, it was often Sam Woods who caddied for her dad and sometimes even her brother. But this time, I saw someone different alongside Charlie.
So, I jumped online and started my search. I went through various articles and forum discussions. It felt like a bit of a treasure hunt, to be honest! I was piecing together information from different sources. Some articles mentioned that Sam Woods had been the caddie for both Tiger and Charlie in previous years. That was a neat fact to confirm since I remembered seeing her in that role before.
Then, I came across some interesting details about this year’s event. Apparently, since February 2024, Tiger has been using an experienced caddie named Lance Bennett. But for this particular championship, it was different. I found out that Charlie had his schoolmate, Luke Wise, as his caddie. How cool is that? Imagine having your buddy help you out in such a big event!
I dug a little deeper into why this was the case. One source mentioned something really touching about Sam. It said, “Because at that time, when she was growing up, golf took daddy away from her. I had to pack, and I had to leave, and I’d be gone for weeks.” This made me realize that Sam probably wanted to share these moments with her dad, especially after all those years of him being away for tournaments. It’s like she was making up for lost time, and that’s just beautiful.
So, to wrap it all up, here’s what I gathered:
- Tiger Woods and his son, Charlie, have been playing in the PNC Championship for five years now.
- Sam Woods, Tiger’s daughter, has often caddied for both Tiger and Charlie in the past.
- For the 2023 PNC Championship, Charlie had his schoolmate Luke Wise as his caddie.
- Tiger usually has Lance Bennett as his caddie since February 2024, but Sam caddied for him during this event, creating special family moments.
It was a fun little investigation, and I’m glad I could share my findings with you. It’s always interesting to learn more about the stories behind these events, isn’t it?
