By

After opening with an outrageous two-under 70 and following it up with a seven-under 65 at Streamsong Black, a multi-course resort in central Florida, Tiger Woods’s son Charlie closed out the AJGA’s Team TaylorMade Invitational with an impressive six-under 66 on Wednesday (Thursday AEST). That was enough to pick up his first career AJGA win by two strokes over Willie Gordon, Phillip Dunham and Luke Colton.

In his previous four AJGA events, Woods had a high finish of T-25 at the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley, which featured a field of 36 players and was won by lefty phenom Miles Russell. This week’s Team TaylorMade Invitational featured a field of 71 top junior players, among them Russell, who Woods beat by seven shots.

Russell, who had won the prior three AJGA events he played in, is currently ranked No. 1 in the Rolex AJGA Rankings. Colton, who Woods beat by three, is ranked fifth. Tyler Watts, the seventh-ranked player from Huntsville, Alabama, shot 11 under, four back. Woods is ranked outside of the top 600.

Woods made 25 birdies over the course of three rounds, plus one eagle. In his first round he made just three pars, but managed to battle out a two-under 70 that kept him in the mix. He played the final 36 in 13 under to claim the victory.
