Of all the accomplishments in his long and decorated career, Tiger Woods never once won a state golf championship in high school.<\/p>\n
Now, his son Charlie Woods has something to one-up his dad.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlie shot a 78-76 over the course of two days while playing for The Benjamin School as his teammates won the FHSAA Class A boys golf state championship on Wednesday at Mission Inn Resort in Howey-In-The-Hills, Florida.<\/p>\n
The 14-year-old Charlie was the fourth-best player on the five-man golf team and finished T-26 overall.<\/p>\n
The Benjamin School clinched the title after sophomore Jake Valentine carded a birdie on hole 17 and sank a title-winning putt on the last hole.<\/p>\n

Charlie Woods won the Florida high school state golfing championship on Wednesday\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The 14-year-old Charlie was the fourth-best golfer in his five-man team over the two-day event<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Charlie did something his father, Tiger, never accomplished while he was in high school<\/p>\n
Tiger watched on and cheered for Charlie throughout the tournament – where his son did something he never did while attending Western High School in Anaheim, California.<\/p>\n
At the time, the California Interscholastic Federation did not conduct a state championship.<\/p>\n
Instead, he won the CIF’s SoCal Regional in 1991 and earned the title of Southern Section medalist in 1991, 1993, and 1994.<\/p>\n
Woods also was the then-youngest golfer to win the US Junior Amateur in 1991.<\/p>\n
