Charlie Woods, the 17-year-old son of golf great Tiger Woods, has committed to hit the links as a member of Florida State’s golf team in 2027.
The high school junior confirmed his decision on Instagram Tuesday afternoon.
“Excited to announce my commitment to play golf at Florida State University — go Noles!” he captioned the announcement.
Charlie, a student at The Benjamin School in Palm Beach, Fla., became a highly sought-after recruit after quickly climbing the Rolex American Junior Golf Association rankings, where he’s currently 21st.
He also helped The Benjamin School win a Florida High School Athletic Association Class A state title in November, their second championship in three years.
Miles Russell of Jacksonville Beach, Fla. is the current No. 1 in the Rolex AJGA rankings, and has also committed to Florida State.
Several of FSU coach Trey Jones’ former players have gone on to join the PGA tour.
By opting to join the FSU Seminoles, Charlie decided not to follow in the footsteps of his famous father, a 15-time major champion who played two years at Stanford before going pro in 1996.
Charlie’s sister, Sam, is currently a freshman at Stanford, though she’s focused on academics instead of sports.
