Charlie Woods falls at U.S. Junior Amateur after phone goes off during playoff hole
Key Points:
- Charlie Woods, son of Tiger Woods, was eliminated from the U.S. Junior Amateur match-play portion after a bogey on the first playoff hole at Saucon Valley's Grace Course.
- The error was influenced by the sound of a phone camera during Woods' backswing on his third shot, causing an errant chip.
- Woods had a strong finish to the initial rounds, playing the final 31 holes at 1-under and making the playoff after previously missing the cut in his first two appearances.
- The high school senior is expected to join Florida State's 2027 recruiting class, alongside top junior player Miles Russell.
