Tiger Woods says that he and son Charlie have “fed off our competitive nature” as they prepare to play alongside each other at the PNC Championship in Florida this weekend. This will be the fourth time that the father-son duo has appeared at the annual tournament in Orlando, which sees past major-winning golfers team up with a family member. Woods made a recent return to golf at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, marking the 15-time major champion’s first competitive outing in nearly eight months having undergone ankle surgery earlier this year. At the PNC Championship, he tees off with 14-year-old Charlie at 8:22am ET alongside two-time major winner Justin Thomas and his father, Mike. “It’s been fun, it’s been fun for both of us,” Woods told NBC on Friday ahead of the event. “We’ve fed off of our competitive nature and we’ve really pushed each other to become better, and it’s just a fun atmosphere. We keep it light, competitive, enjoyable.” The pair practiced together at the Ritz Carlton Golf Club on Friday, once again showcasing their eerily similar golf swing and mannerisms at the tee.
