Tiger Woods' 11-year-old son blew the entire field away at an amateur tournament.
This Tiger cub is starting to roar.
Charlie Woods, the son of golf legend Tiger Woods, has picked up a thing or two from his famous father, destroying his competitors in a junior golf tournament recently.
Playing at Hammock Creek, Florida, earlier this month, 11-year-old Charlie blitzed the rest ofthe field to finish atop the leaderboard a lazy five shots clear of his nearest rival.
In an event sanctioned by US Kids Golf as part of the South Florida Tour, Charlie shot a three-under 33 across nine holes, proving talent runs in the family.

Charlie's swing would put plenty of adults to shame — something we learned after footage emerged of Woods caddying for his son at an event in Florida back in January.
The 15-time major champion — who has been plagued by injury in recent years — likes what he sees from his offspring on the course, telling GolfTV last month Charlie's education is on the right path.

"He's starting to get into it," Woods said. "He's starting to understand how to play. He's asking me the right questions.
"I've kept it competitive with his par, so it's been just an absolute blast to go out there and just, you know, be with him. It reminds me so much of me and my dad growing up.
"I analyse his swing all the time. I wish I could rotate like that and turn my head like that and do some of those positions, but those days are long gone, and I have to relive them through him."
