Tiger and Charlie Woods teamed up for the PNC Championship Pro-Am on Friday and the father-son duo provided fans with no few highlights during their round in Florida.
Woods Sr and Jr headed a star-studded field at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, with Vijay Singh and Justin Thomas among 20 major champions who teamed up with a member of their family.
Team Woods caught fans’ eyes even before they teed off on Friday morning. The 15-time major champion dropped the F-Bomb after watching his son hit a flop shot in practice.
The 14-year-old was working on his short game around the green when he sent the ball high into the Florida sky.
‘We’re ending on that one right there, that was nasty,’ his dad said with a laugh. ‘F****** nasty!’

Supporters were also treated to a clip of Tiger – who is back after more injury struggles – and Charlie warming up alongside each other.
As the father and son pairing struck the ball at almost the exact same time, fans marveled at how similar the teen’s swing was to his father’s.
They were treated to another flood of nostalgia when, a few hours later, Team Woods reached the 17th at the the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club.
The younger Woods rolled in a birdie putt and walked the ball into the cup in a way that has become synonymous with his father.
But that is not to say that Team Woods were on the same page for all 18 holes, however. One comical incident saw Tiger take out his driver for a shot off the deck.
‘You have got to be kidding me?’ his son asked much to the amusement of the 47-year-old, who then smoked his shot towards the green.
The elder Woods appeared to share a similar sense of exasperation when Charlie miscued an approach to the green.
The ball barely rose off the ground before flirting with the edge of the bunker. Somehow, it trickled around the trap and on to the fringe.

‘Just get in the cart,’ Tiger said to his smiling son.
‘Perfect. I meant to do that,’ Charlie responded.
Team Woods were paired with 10-time major champion Annika Sorenstam and her son Will McGee.
The group enjoyed a mid-round snack of chicken tenders and during one break in play, when McGee was ‘interviewing’ Charlie on TV, Woods Sr flung a piece of chicken at his son.
Chicken tender shenanigans 😂
