The Junior Players Championship is one of the tournaments that attracts a lot of public attention. However, Charlie Woods, the son of Tiger Woods, the legendary golfer, is attracting the most attention. Currently at the top of the rankings is Miles Russell, a young player who has shown in the previous weeks and months that he is a golfer who belongs at the very top.
On the other hand, Tiger Woods' son, Charlie Woods, was not as impressive in the first round, as he played a round of 4 over par.
Although some expected the young golfer to excel in the first round, he started with two bogeys, but picked up the pace after that, recording a birdie on the fourth hole.
However, it was not enough for him, as he had two birdies and one bogey in the continuation, and a bogey on the final hole brought him a final +4.

He now sits eight strokes behind leaders Russell and Logis.
This teenager had a strong ambition before the start of the tournament, but he is currently tied for 38th place and has a lot of work ahead of him.
Tiger's son was in a similar situation before. The next day will be an opportunity for him to improve his impression and try to do something bigger.
We still don't know if he will succeed in this, but it is certain that the advice from Tiger, as well as his mindset, can be crucial in the next rounds.
This tournament has both an excitement factor and a surprise factor.
The pressure
Being the son of Tiger Woods is not easy, given the enormous pressure week in and week out.
Charlie needs to learn how to carry that name. For him, the coming years will be crucial and represent the right step towards his entry into professional waters.

However, Tiger is not too impressed with the public's reactions, and emphasizes that it is not necessary to burden Charlie, considering that a golfer at his age still needs to develop and play relaxedly, without any pressure.
It's hard to give a real answer as to whether the public will be a little more lenient towards him, but it's essential for a teenager to understand how to deal with everything.
