Sam Woods’ daughter became a caddy for her father – famous golfer Tiger Woods – for the first time at the PNC Championship in Florida this weekend.
Photos at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club show Tiger Woods and Sam chatting as he warms up before the match. The 16-year-old girl wore a bib shirt with leggings and Nike brand sneakers that have been sponsored by her father for nearly 30 years. Sam was seen wiping his stick and putting it in his pocket, dragging it along as he walked with his father and younger brother Charlie. The father and son sometimes stood next to each other, smiling while taking photos together.

“Sam is amazing. This is the first time she’s done this so for us it’s very special. Having both of us next to her, on the field together, is really special to me. At home, we I’ve practiced a lot, supported and had fun together, but it’s even more special when we go together in a tournament like this,” Tiger Woods said.
The annual PNC Championship tournament is a family bonding and exchange event for 20 golf champions to combine with relatives who can be parents, children or partners. At the end of the tournament, the famous golfer and his 14-year-old son finished in 5th place with -19 strokes. The winning pair were father and son golfer Bernhard and Jason Langer.
While his sister was a caddy for the first time, Charlie accompanied his father at last year’s PNC Championship. The 14-year-old boy delighted golf fans with his gestures, posture and the way he raised his fist to celebrate just like his famous father. “It’s priceless”, “It’s great to see this image”, “Tiger’s tears also makes me emotional”, “Life is better with a happy Tiger Woods”… are comments from fans when saw the former world number one father and son competing together.

Sam and Charlie are the results of Tiger Woods’ first marriage to Elin Nordegren. The two got married in 2004 and were praised for having a fairy-tale love story. However, the talented couple broke up in 2010, after the famous golfer was exposed in his adultery scandal with dozens of beauties. After divorcing Tiger Woods, the former Swedish model married former rugby player Jordan Cravens Cameron and had two more children. Tiger Woods dated many beauties, including fellow ski queen Lindsey Vonn. Earlier this year, he was caught up in a lawsuit and broke up with his girlfriend Erica Herman after 6 years of being together.
