Tiger Woods' son, Charlie, significantly improved his performance during the second round of the US Junior Amateur Championship. Unfortunately for him, it won't be enough to advance in the event. Charlie Woods navigated a turbulent second round at Trinity Forest Golf Club, marked by numerous highs and lows. He started with a bogey on the first hole, but recovered quickly and responded with a birdie on the second. He then alternated birdies and bogeys between holes four and seven to make the turn at even par. The younger Woods continued to struggle with the course on the back nine. He made bogey on the 11th and then alternated birdies and bogeys again, this time between holes 14 and 17. Thus, he arrived at the 18th tee with a score of 1-over for the round and 12-over for the tournament. The final hole marked his farewell to the event, and, unfortunately for him, on a poor note. Charlie double-bogeyed the 18th hole to finish with a 36-hole score of 14-over. Charlie Woods hits a tee shot on the fourth hole during the first round of the U.S. Junior Amateur at Brook Hollow Golf Club on July 21, 2025 in Dallas, Texas. Charlie Woods hits a tee shot on the fourth hole during the first round of the U.S. Junior Amateur at Brook Hollow Golf Club on July 21, 2025 in Dallas, Woods' First Round Had Sealed His Fate It's fair to say that his fate had practically been sealed since the previous round, when he carded 11-over at Brook Hollow Golf Club. Charlie would have had to score well under par at Trinity Forest to even hope to advance past the stroke play stage. The top 64 players will advance to the match play stage of the US Junior Amateur. Even though the second round has not yet been completed, the cut line is projected to be 3-over. This is Charlie Woods' second appearance in the U.S. Junior Amateur. He also missed the cut a year ago at Oakland Hills Country Club, with rounds of 82 and 80. The high school junior at the Benjamin Academy will have two more opportunities to compete in the nation's premier event. This is an event his father, Tiger Woods, won three consecutive times between 1991 and 1993. The 15-time major champion followed this streak with one of three consecutive U.S. Amateur victories between 1994 and 1996.
