Like Father, Like Son: Charlie Woods Earns AJGA First-Team Honors Alongside Tiger

By

Charlie Woods just checked off a box with his dad’s name on it.

Tiger Woods' son Charlie's body transformation revealed as teen continues dad's legacy | HELLO!

The 16-year-old was added to the American Junior Golf Association’s first-team All-America list, one of only 12 boys honored this year and his first time on the top team.

The AJGA announcement out of Braselton, Georgia, capped a season that already included his first AJGA win and a jump up the junior rankings. Tiger Woods lived in this lane as a teenager. He made the AJGA first team all four years of high school.

He was also the Rolex Junior Player of the Year in 1991 and 1992, a launch pad toward three U.S. Amateurs and all his success that followed. Charlie now sits on the same All-America line, a notable overlap between two very different eras.

The Parallels Between Tiger Woods and His Son

The parallels are easy to see and people in the game have been pointing them out for years. Tiger himself once broke down Charlie’s swing on camera and joked that his son “uses his legs way better than I ever did,” a mix of pride and gentle warning about expectations.

Commentators have leaned into the resemblance without pretending they are the same player. During one stretch of Charlie’s 2025 rise, Golf Digest reported that analyst Brandel Chamblee had already given his “seal of approval” on a viral swing clip.

This All-America nod fits the year he just had. Charlie Woods won the Team TaylorMade Invitational in May with a closing 66, qualified again for the U.S. Junior Amateur, tied for ninth at the Junior PGA and added more reps against top fields at the Junior Players Championship.

What this AJGA line really means is simpler. Among national juniors, Charlie is no longer just “Tiger’s kid who can play.” He is one of the 12 best boys on the AJGA’s board this year, with a season of scores to back it up. Honors like this are how he starts to carry his own share of a golf legacy.

‘It got so awkward when Serena Williams walked in – I had to leave the locker room’

By

Jennifer Brady has shared a story about an awkward encounter with Serena Williams in the locker room at the French Open.

In 2016, Brady was trying to establish herself at Roland-Garros while Williams was defending her Grand Slam championship.

Brady won her first two matches but failed to qualify after being defeated by Daniela Hantuchova. Williams, meanwhile, reached the final in Paris before falling to Garbine Muguruza.

During an appearance on ‘The Players’ Box’ podcast with Jessica Pegula, Desirae Krawczyk and Madison Keys, the former world No. 13 was prompted to reveal her most awkward locker room experience. Brady, who is currently inactive but hasn’t formally announced her retirement, recalled the memorable meeting with the tennis icon.

She said: “I would say at the French Open, I was in the locker room, and you guys know how the space is very small. I was in one of the corners. I was actually next to Serena, and I was cleaning out my locker.

“I had four boxes of laundry, literally two bras and like one pair of shorts in one box, and then it’s like four shirts. I’m like, ‘Just put it all in one box.’ And they give you so many boxes.

“And I’m in the middle of doing that. And Serena comes in, and I just froze up, and I was like, ‘I’m in her way. I have to move.’

“I just literally go stand on the bench, walk over like jump over the bags, and just leave. I never even finished cleaning out my locker. I just had this urge to leave her in her space. Like, I was like so intimidated.”

Brady appeared in the French Open main draw on five occasions between 2017 and 2021, though she never progressed beyond the third round.

Keys, who claimed her maiden Grand Slam championship at the 2025 Australian Open, was prompted to share her most embarrassing experience.

The 30-year-old recalled: “It was a night match. I was like the last person to leave and was packing up my stuff, and I saw like a cockroach go running, and I jumped up on top of one of the benches and started just screaming bloody murder.

“It truly sounded like I was being attacked. And the poor security man outside came running in because I was the only person left, and he’s like, ‘Are you okay?’

“And I was like, ‘Yeah, it was a bug. Sorry.’ And he was like, ‘Oh, okay. That’s it.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, sorry.'”.

“All I Can Say Is Two Time”: Deontay Wilder Announces His Next

By

Former long-reigning heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is gearing up for a productive 2026.

‘The Bronze Bomber’ made his long-awaited return to action back in June when he stopped countryman Tyrrell Herndon in the seventh round of their clash at the Charles Koch Arena in Wichita, Kansas.

The 40-year-old from Alabama had reportedly been on the verge of retiring from the sport after he suffered consecutive defeats to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, but the former WBC heavyweight champion has set his sights on pushing towards becoming a two-time heavyweight champion next year.

Speaking to renowned livestreamer N3on recently, Wilder revealed that he has signed a contract for a fight that is set to take place in January, as he claims he is looking forward to a ‘big year’.

“I do have something coming up. We’re looking in January. I’ve signed the contract already. I can’t [give] no details at this point, but it’s definitely live. It’s gonna happen. I got a big year next year, I’m looking forward to it … all I can say is two-time. Let’s go.”

It remains to be seen exactly who Wilder’s next opponent will be however, considering Ukrainian superstar Oleksandr Usyk currently holds all four of the major world heavyweight titles.

Reports have suggested that ‘The Bronze Bomber’ could be in line to face former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou next, although it is also being speculated that he could be pursuing a long-awaited showdown with two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, who is gearing up to make his return to action as well.

Any of these big nights under the lights is likely to come after this January return, which manager Shelly Finkel has said will happen ‘overseas.’

Tiger Woods’ ‘hate to admit it’ remark about son Charlie speaks volumes after bad news

Sick of Tiger Woods' Digs, Son Charlie Woods Finally Gets the Upper Hand in Their Daily "Argument" - EssentiallySports

Tiger Woods is set to miss the chance to team up with his son Charlie after the golf icon’s latest injury setback. Woods last appeared on the PGA Tour in July 2024, missing the cut at The Open.

The 49-year-old has enjoyed a legendary career, winning 15 majors and helping to transform the sport. However, his extended spell on the sidelines has seen the former world No.1 fall down the rankings.

Woods has suffered multiple injuries in recent years, including rupturing his Achilles while training at home in March. More recently, he underwent lumbar disc replacement surgery.

This latest operation has effectively ended the chances of Tiger teaming up with his son Charlie at the PNC Championship in December. The tournament has become a father-son tradition, with Woods competing alongside his son since 2020.

Despite the pressure of following in his father’s footsteps, Charlie has shown tremendous potential. The 16-year-old claimed his first American Junior Golf Association title in May at the TaylorMade Invitational. In 2022, Tiger’s admission that his 13-year-old had outdriven him for the first time spoke volumes about Charlie’s golf game.

“I hate to say it but I’m going to admit it: He finally did it a few weeks ago. I spun one and he tomahawked one and got me,” Woods said during The Match in 2022.

Tiger and Charlie have yet to win the PNC Championship together but they came close last year. The Woods’ tied with Bernhard Langer and his son Jason on 28-under-par before losing out in a playoff.

However, there was still plenty for the Woods family to be happy about. Charlie had claimed an eagle on the third hole before achieving his first-ever hole-in-one on the fourth, much to his dad’s delight.

“It’s one of the highlights that we’ve ever had,” Tiger said. “We were talking about earlier, he made his first eagle. Now he just made his first hole-in-one. It’s a magical two-hole stretch.

“I’m just so happy for him. It was a lot of fun. It was back-and-forth, no one made a mistake today.”

Charlie echoed his father’s thoughts: “It was awesome,” he said. “No one made a mistake today, and on top of that, I made an ace. I don’t think I can top that.”

Tiger’s injury troubles have likely denied the father-son duo their chance to compete for the PNC Championship this year. The tournament is set to be held at the Ritz-Carlton golf club in Orlando, Florida from December 18.

In a post on X, Tiger confirmed his latest surgery last month. “After experiencing pain and lack of mobility in my back, I consulted with Doctors and Surgeons to have tests taken,” he said.

“The scans determined that I had a collapsed disc in L4/5, disc fragments and a compromised spinal canal. I opted to have my disc replaced yesterday. I already know I made a good decision for my health and my back.”

The statement added: “On Friday, Tiger underwent lumbar disc replacement surgery in his L4/5 Lumbar spine for lower back symptoms. The surgery was deemed successful and performed by Dr Sheeraz Qureshi and his team at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.”

Anthony Joshua on Possible Fight with Jake Paul

Jake Paul says a fight against Anthony Joshua fight is looking likely for next year, and admits he wants the 'challenge'. Pictures courtesy of MVP.

Anthony Joshua, a 36-year-old boxer, discussed the possibility of a surprising match with Jake Paul.

The potential fight could take place on short notice, as Joshua has landed on the list of contenders after Netflix canceled his bout with Gervonta Davis, scheduled for November 14.

Eddie Hearn discusses the possibility of Anthony Joshua fighting Jake Paul despite Tyson Fury being the first choice opponent.

Promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed that the former two-Time heavyweight champion has already been in contact with Paul, opening up possibilities for new meetings in the ring.

“We talked about it, and maybe it could happen,” Hearn said.

Joshua continues to look for new chances to return to the ring after recent difficulties in his career.

Considering the new opportunities emerging in the boxing arena as well as changes in fight schedules, this situation could significantly impact Joshua’s career.

Watching the developments, boxing fans are waiting to see if this fight will actually take place and what consequences it will have for both boxers.

Oleksandr Usyk Shocks Former Heavyweight World Champion By Telling Him ‘We Will Fight’

By

Oleksandr Usyk quietly plots his next move, with numerous top contenders vying for their shot to share the ring with him.

The great Ukrainian became undisputed in the heavyweight division for a second time earlier this year when he knocked Daniel Dubois out at Wembley Stadium.

He now has a mandatory challenger in Fabio Wardley to face, as well as WBC Interim Champion Agit Kabayel waiting in the wings. Whilst Usyk has remained relatively tight-lipped on his next move, he has made it clear he is likely to fight again.

READ: Fabio Wardley explains why he has a better chance of beating Oleksandr Usyk than Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua 

As the top contenders make their case for a shot at the throne, former three-belt champion Andy Ruiz Jr has joined the charge. In fact, speaking to Covers, Ruiz revealed that the undisputed Ukrainian recently messaged him saying he was open to a fight if things aligned.

“Maybe like a few weeks ago, I was messaging Usyk. I guess he sent me a message or something. I was like, ‘Hey, much love, brother. I would love to get in the ring with you. It would be a pleasure.’ And then he was like, “In God’s timing, we will do it. We will run it up.” And I was like, “‘Oh, snap.’”

For the match-up to be a serious possibility, Ruiz must get busy fighting. He has been out of the ring since a draw with Jarrell Miller in August of 2024. Prior to that, he fought once in 2022 – a win over Luiz Ortiz – and once in 2021, beating Chris Arreola.

‘The Destroyer’s career highlight remains a shock win over Anthony Joshua in 2019 to become unified champion. He would lose those belts in the rematch six months later, and must find form and convince fans of his remaining potential before being mentioned alongside Usyk. Recent hand surgery and a link-up with former trainer Manny Robles seem to have him motivated.

Charlie Woods bags prestigious golf honor dad Tiger earned over 30 years ago

Like father, like son | Tiger and Charlie Woods' resemblance is uncanny

Charlie Woods has closed out a milestone year in his junior golf journey with a major accolade — a place on the elite 2025 Rolex Junior All-America First Team, a recognition reserved for the nation’s top young players, including his father 35 years ago.

This is Woods’ first time earning a spot on the First Team, and he joins an exclusive list of 24 standout juniors recognized for exceptional play over the year. Representing Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and part of the class of 2027, the 16-year-old rose to No. 9 in the Rolex AJGA Rankings after collecting 280.291 points in six tournaments.

READ: Why Phil Mickelson claimed modern players simply do not understand about Tiger Woods

His breakthrough came in May at the Team TaylorMade Invitational, where he notched his first AJGA win with scores of 70, 65, and 66 — adding 225 points to his season total, significantly contributing to his latest career milestone. Woods also recorded a T9 finish at the Boys Junior PGA Championship in July, as well as getting to grips with the Junior PLAYERS Championship and the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley.

Over the past year, the teenager Woods has seen rapid growth spurts. He is now believed to be standing at 6 ft 1 in, and legend John Daly advised Woods’ father to build him up, and he would be a fantastic player in the future.

However, the rapid growth saw Charlie put on more weight than he wanted, and he dropped 10 pounds, according to his high school coach, Toby Harbeck.

“Charlie knows a lot of the attention is going to be on him and he knows not to put himself in an uncomfortable position, but his teammates are protective of him,” the Benjamin Buccaneers coach told the Palm Beach Post in August.

“Charlie has come a long way in two years. He’s lost 10 pounds and is ready to take on that No. 1 role.”

The teenage Woods also happens to go to school with another teenager who is related to an American cultural icon.

Charlie is currently a junior at an elite Palm Beach high school with an annual tuition of about $37,000 — the same school where Kai Trump, granddaughter of President Donald Trump, is completing her senior year.

Earlier this year, Charlie’s father made headlines when he went public with his relationship with Vanessa, the former wife of Donald Trump Jr.

The 15-time major champion is often seen cheering on his son at junior tournaments, frequently joined by his ex-wife, Elin.

While the younger Woods’ career is on the rise, his father, Tiger, is at a crossroads. The 49-year-old underwent surgery on an Achilles injury earlier this year and then suffered another setback with another back surgery.

WATCH: Novak Djokovic moves closer to Roger Federer’s milestone

By

Novak Djokovic reached his first ATP semi-final in February 2006 in Zagreb, falling to Ivan Ljubicic in three tight sets.

Novak Djokovic opens up about how Roger Federer 'helped me a lot'

Nearly two decades later, the 38-year-old is still capable of reaching the latter stages on the highest level.

Novak defeated two rivals at this week’s ATP 250 event in Athens, having advanced to his eighth ATP semi-final of the season. Thus, the legend now stands on 199 ATP semi-finals, moving one away from another incredible milestone.

Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer are the only players with 200 ATP semi-finals in the Open era, with Djokovic looking good to join them at the end of 2025 or the beginning of the new season.

JUST IN: WHY Serena Williams goes overboard with cosmetic procedures revealing

Federer stands on 211, and the Serb will have a chance to pass him if he remains this consistency in 2026 and 2027. Novak has stopped the clock this season after reaching six notable semi-finals.

The Belgrade native made an incredible run at Majors, reaching all four semi-finals and writing history books. Alongside, he also competed in the last four at the Miami Masters and in Shanghai.

Djokovic suffered a couple of early losses, and without them, he could have already been on 200. However, the milestone will come sooner rather than later. Novak skipped the Paris Masters and prepared for the ATP 250 event in Athens.

The veteran defeated Alejandro Tabilo 7-6, 6-1 in the first round, besting the Chilean for the first time in a career after two losses on clay. Djokovic prevailed in the opener after over an hour and secured a double break in the second set to advance.

Novak chased his 199th ATP semi-final against Nuno Borges and delivered a hard-fought 7-6, 6-4 victory. As in the first match, the Serb had to dig deep in the opening set. He played a flawless tie break to gain the advantage.

Novak secured a single break in the second set and served well to book a place in the last four, remaining on the course toward his 101st ATP title.

WHY Serena Williams goes overboard with cosmetic procedures revealing

By
Serena Williams

When you’re a mom, an entrepreneur, and one of the greatest athletes the world has ever seen, mastering multitasking becomes a survival skill.

Serena Williams knows this better than anyone. Yet this time, some fans think she might’ve gone a little too far with her latest beauty habit.

Traffic jams meet skincare glow-ups

For Serena, opinions have never been an obstacle. Throughout her career, she’s been one of the most fearless and controversial figures in sports – unapologetically breaking molds on and off the court. Now, she’s doing it again, but this time with her beauty routine. Her cosmetic methods? Let’s just say they don’t involve a quiet spa day. Instead, she’s bringing the spa to her car.

Serena Williams goes overboard with cosmetic procedures revealing her...

READ: Serena Williams Shares Rare New Photos of Her

They say beauty has a price – and Serena is definitely paying it. The tennis legend isn’t just keeping her skin flawless; she’s redefining time management while doing it. Picture this: Serena driving around, casually wearing a high-tech LED face mask. If traffic gets stressful, why not turn it into a self-care session? Collagen boost, wrinkle defense, and a radiant glow – all on the go. Sounds crazy? Please, if this surprises you… shame on you.

It’s definitely Serena’s way

Sure, some people think it’s a crazy move. But others see genius – especially in a world where traffic might be the most stressful place to exist. Serena knows it’s not the most “normal” practice, yet if there’s ever been a perfect example of multitasking done right, it’s this. The best part? The mask doesn’t block her vision. Otherwise, this story might’ve taken a very different turn.

At this point, it’s safe to say Serena couldn’t care less about being called eccentric. She’s long past needing approval. Whether she’s on the court, in business, or stuck in traffic wearing a skincare gadget, Williams continues to remind everyone that confidence – just like beauty – comes from doing things your own way.

Terence Crawford’s New Gig Proves He’s Winning Outside The Ring Too

Following his September 13 win against Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford has become one of the biggest superstars in boxing. Considering Canelo is considered the face of boxing, that isn’t surprising.

Crawford made history last month, becoming the first male boxer to win the undisputed title in three different weight classes. The 38-year-old has a lot of options open to him inside the ring now, including a possible Canelo rematch.

Outside the ring, Crawford’s stock is also rising, and he’s now been seen rubbing shoulders with stars outside of the sport. And in his latest opportunity outside the ring, Crawford has now kicked off his modeling career.

Terence Crawford’s new modeling career

Crawford has been featured by Haute Living, a luxury website and magazine, modeling some costly Ulysse Nardin watches, which can cost from the tens to the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

@tbudcrawford is the only male fighter in history to become a three time undisputed champion across five weight divisions, a legacy defined by discipline, strategy, and undeniable greatness.

Crawford has been fighting at the world championship level for the majority of his career and boasts an undefeated record of 42-0-0 with 31 knockout wins. Apart from being undisputed in three weight classes, he is a five-division world champion.

However, he has never received the recognition that he’s getting now, with his reach now expanding beyond the boxing ring and into the mainstream.

Crawford was also featured in a separate Instagram post playing a game of ‘Haute or Not’.

Terence Crawford reflects on Canelo Alvarez win

In his legendary career, one thing Crawford has never lacked is confidence. The same was the case for his win against Canelo on September 13. Being well prepared, ‘Bud’ was fully confident in his ability, despite the naysayers pointing out his two-weight division jump as an issue. He said:

“I was confident one thousand percent. Everybody who didn’t believe in me was surprised. I wasn’t. I’d been telling people what was going to happen from the moment the fight got signed.”

Terence Crawford

Despite all the glitter and glory, Crawford remains grounded. There’s nothing concrete regarding his next career move yet. However, reports suggest that he is aiming for a March return, with the middleweight division in Crawford’s sight.

While moving up to super middleweight from 154 pounds, he skipped over 154. Winning world titles in that division would further seal him as one of the best to lace up a pair of gloves.
