These days, it’s the event Tiger Woods is most likely to play and this year will be no different.
The 2024 PNC Championship , originally known as the Father/Son Challenge when it first started more than 30 years ago, is back this weekend and so are Woods and his son, Charlie. They’ll headline the field for the fifth year in a row, although they’re still looking for their first win in this tournament. Tiger Woods has not played in a competitive golf event since he missed the cut at The Open Championship last July. Charlie Woods , 15, is now a sophomore in high school at The Benjamin School in Palm Beach, Florida.
There will be 20 two-person teams competing at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando, with Bernhard Langer and his son Jason, returning as the defending champions. But watching Woods and his son has become the biggest attraction annually , with their swings and mannerisms often highlighted because of the similarities.
“I’m very excited to head back to the PNC Championship next week with Charlie,” Woods said in a statement announcing his commitment to play again. “Playing together is something we look forward to and it’s always more special when you’re surrounded by friends and family.”
