Charlie Woods has some bling on his finger – celebrating his high school state championship in golf with The Benjamin School in Palm Beach, Florida.
Images of a beaming Charlie and his fellow teammates made the rounds as ‘the Bucs’ enjoyed the fruits of their success.
Tiger and his ex-wife Elin were there to celebrate alongside their son as he slipped the championship ring onto his finger with his friends.
Charlie shot a 78-76 over the course of two days while playing for The Benjamin School as his teammates won the FHSAA Class A boys golf state championship on Wednesday at Mission Inn Resort in Howey-In-The-Hills,Β Florida.
The 14-year-old Charlie was the fourth-best player on the five-man golf team and finished T-26 overall.

The Benjamin School clinched the title after sophomore Jake Valentine carded a birdie on hole 17 and sank a title-winning putt on the last hole.
Tiger watched on and cheered for Charlie throughout the tournament – where his son did something he never did while attending Western High School in Anaheim, California.
At the time, the California Interscholastic Federation did not conduct a state championship.
Instead, he won the CIF’s SoCal Regional in 1991 and earned the title of Southern Section medalist in 1991, 1993, and 1994.
Woods also was the then-youngest golfer to win the US Junior Amateur in 1991.
Tiger is expected to be playing at The Masters in just a few weeks time. The 15-time major champion’s name is on the list of competitors expected to roll up to Augusta National, but Woods hasn’t formally revealed his plans.
