For Charlie Woods, it's obviously going to take quite a bit to be like his dad. After all, Tiger Woods<\/a> has a record 82 PGA Tour<\/a> victories to his name, including 15 major championships<\/a>, second only to Jack Nicklaus' 18. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But at least for this weekend's PNC Championship<\/a>, Charlie will indeed take after Tiger as the 13-year-old will be limping around Orlando's Ritz-Carlton Golf Club. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The elder Woods, of course, is still dealing with the effects of last year's auto accident as well as a recent bout of plantar fasciitis. Tiger missed the Hero World Challenge but was able to tee it up last Saturday in the most recent edition of “The Match,”<\/a> where he and Rory McIlroy were soundly defeated by the dynamic duo of Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for young Charlie, he rolled his ankle while warming up for Friday's pro-am ahead of 2022 edition of the PNC Championship, where he and his dad will compete for the third straight year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charlie had a noticeable limp during Friday's round, as did Tiger, and looked a bit uncomfortable after a few of his shots. Cameras captured both walking off the 11th green with matching ailments while wearing matching outfits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
