Tiger Woods jokingly shut down a reporter’s question to Charlie Woods after the first round of the PNC Championship before the little cat admitted he has newfound respect for his father.
Earlier in the week the Woodses turned heads as Tiger appeared to showcase a new warmup routine with a baseball bat and 13-year-old Charlie was limping heavily.
Tiger joked in his pre-tournament press conference that Charlie’s hurt left ankle was still “better than mine”.
Apparently, Charlie rolled his ankle whilst hitting golf balls on the range. He was later pictured clipping away shots wearing a golf shoe on his right foot and a trainer on the left.
During the first round Charlie appeared to be in real pain, visibly wincing on more than a few occasions.
That being said the duo managed to combine to shoot a 13-under 59. Tiger chipped in for eagle and gave us a little fist pump and also played a beauty from the pine straw to prove there’s still life in the cat.
The pair will start the final round two strokes behind leaders Justin Thomas and Mike Thomas.
