It was a family reunion for Charlie Woods on Friday, as both his father and mother, whose divorce was highly publicized, were together again to celebrate his college commitment.
Woods, the son of 15-time major winner Tiger, announced earlier this year his commitment to play golf at Florida State University.
The Woods family, including Tiger’s ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, were on hand at Charlie’s high school to celebrate.

Tiger and Elin got divorced after the former’s infidelity had been exposed.
Charlie announced the commitment in February.
“Excited to announce my commitment to play golf at Florida State University — go Noles!” he wrote.
“Congratulations Charlie. I’m so proud of you on entering this next chapter of your life,” Tiger commented.
It is a rare public appearance for Tiger, who has remained out of the spotlight most of the time since he was arrested in March.
He was arrested on charges of DUI following a car crash in which police later found hydrocodone pills in his pocket. It was his second DUI in less than a decade. Woods previously told law enforcement prior to the field sobriety tests that he underwent seven back surgeries and “over 20 operations on his leg.” He told law enforcement that “I take a few” prescription medications.
According to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital, deputies with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office reported observing several signs of impairment at the scene, noting that the golf legend was “sweating profusely” and that his movements appeared “lethargic and slow.” Law enforcement proceeded to perform field sobriety tests because of their suspicions. Woods was instructed to remove his eyeglasses, and the deputy conducting the tests stated that his eyes appeared to be “bloodshot and glassy” and “extremely dilated.”
Shortly after the arrest, Woods announced he was seeking treatment.
Nordegren was reportedly “concerned” after the legendary golfer’s arrest.
Tiger’s return to the golf course remains to be determined — he has not played since the 2024 Open Championship. When he was arrested in March, he said he was “hoping to” play in April’s Masters, but he ultimately missed the entire 2026 season.
