Woods, the 15-year-old son of Tiger Woods, shot a 9-over 81 in the first stage of qualifying for the major championship at a local qualifying event at the Legacy Golf & Tennis Club in Port St. Lucie, Florida. Woods had four bogeys and three double-bogeys in his round, with just a single birdie.

He needed to finish inside the top five to advance into the final qualifier.

 

U.S. Open qualifying is incredibly tough each year, and it leads up to “Golf’s Longest Day,” when 36-hole, single-day tournaments across the country determine the final qualifiers ahead of the major championship. Thursday’s qualifier in which Woods participated was one of 109 tournaments held across the country.

Last year, according to The Washington Post, only 64 of the 878 golfers who made it to the final qualifier actually earned a spot in the U.S. Open.
Charlie Woods attempted to qualify for a PGA Tour tournament earlier this year, though he posted a 16-over for the Cognizant Classic and did not make it in. A group of fans harassed him repeatedly throughout that event, too. Woods has played alongside his father in the past several PNC Championships, which is the annual parent-child event held by the Tour and the PGA Tour Champions. He also helped lead his high school to a state championship in Florida last year.
