Charlie Woods signs NIL deal with TaylorMade, joining dad Tiger Woods on roster
On Friday, TaylorMade announced that Charlie Woods, son of legendary golfer Tiger Woods, signed an NIL endorsement deal with the company. The 17-year-old is building his sponsorship portfolio as he prepares for college golf at Florida State.
Charlie Woods has used TaylorMade equipment for most of his career, mirroring his father's long relationship with the company. The partnership expands TaylorMade's roster of rising stars alongside players like Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Nelly Korda.
At the Junior Players Championship on Friday, Woods fired a 1-under-par 71 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. This marks his lowest competitive round at the venue where his father won twice.
Overcoming bogeys at Nos. 11 and 14 with consecutive birdies, Woods saved par at the 17th with a chip he described as fortunate. "I was pleasantly surprised," Woods said of the shot staying dry on the footpath.
Committed to Florida State for the Class of 2027, Woods continues competing alongside fellow top junior Miles Russell. He remains focused on his junior golf journey as he approaches his senior year of high school.
