Charlie Woods, the son of Tiger Woods, will attempt to secure a spot in the field at the PGA Tour’s Cognizant Classic (formerly the Honda Classic) next week in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

The 15-year-old Woods will tee it up Thursday in an 18-hole tournament at Lost Lake Golf Club in Hobe Sound, Florid – one of four pre-qualifying venues, according to the PGA Tour.

The top 25 (and ties) from each of the four pre-qualifying sites will then advance to a Monday qualifier, from which four players will earn spots in the Cognizant Classic, held Feb. 29-March 3 at PGA National Resort.

Woods is scheduled to tee off at 7:39 a.m. ET on Thursday, alongside Ruaidhri Mcgee and Olin Browne Jr., the son of three-time PGA Tour winner Olin Browne.

Among those in the field for the Cognizant Classic are major winners Rory McIlroy, Shane Lowry, Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Rose and Gary Woodland.

Tiger Woods last played in the Honda Classic in 2018, in what was the beginning of a two-year renaissance, resulting in iconic wins at the 2018 Tour Championship and 2019 Masters.
