Charlie Woods boosted his credentials as a golfer in his own right with his maiden victory at a junior tournament, but many fans are curious to how much the teenage star is actually worth
The son of golfing legend Tiger Woods, Charlie, is finally starting to emerge out of his father’s looming shadow. Yet despite his burgeoning skills on the fairway, fans are wondering just how much the teen star is actually worth.
Despite the pressure of emulating his 15-time major winning dad, Charlie has made headlines of his own. He further boosted his credentials after winning his first major American Junior Golf Association tournament recently, the Team TaylorMade Invitational.
In December 2024, the youngster also scored his first hole-in-one, yet it was a throwaway comment after that really stirred column inches. Charlie’s celebration was briefly interrupted when his dad reminded him of one of golf’s golden rules.
“You’re buying [a round of drinks] for everyone out here,” Woods Snr said, to which Charlie responded: “I’m not buying. I’m broke.” Could the son of the most famous golfer in history really be struggling to make ends meet? The reality is somewhat different.
According to Sportskeeda, Charlie’s net worth is estimated at around an astonishing $25 million (£18.5M), however his bank balance could actually be much bigger due to a revelation over a trust fund in place. Charlie and his sister, Sam, both reportedly have major trusts in each of their names, with a rumored figure of $20M (£14.8M) to be passed on to the pair from Tiger.
Charlie has also reportedly been given two luxury properties in Florida and California, which he will be able to access when he turns 21. Endorsement rumors have also given weight to the theory that Charlie’s net worth is bigger than first though.
Woods Jnr is eligible for a potentially lucrative Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deal. These are contracts are typically offered to star student-athletes, however there’s no confirmation yet that he has signed with any brand.
Rumours previously circulated that Charlie had even partnered with Greyson, a clothing brand valued at an estimated $39m (£28.9m), after he was spotted wearing the company’s logo at the 2023 PNC Championship. However, neither Woods, nor the brand, confirmed a deal.
Charlie has also sported Tiger’s signature golf apparel line, Sun Day Red, throughout his junior career. Yet It’s unclear if there is any official deal with his dad’s brand either.
The 16-year-old saw off some of the top junior players in the world at the Streamsong Golf Resort Black Course to clinch the TaylorMade Invitational. It was a huge win for teen star after he missed out on local qualifying for the U.S. Open for the second year running, and the victory even skyrocketed his AJGA ranking from No. 606 to No. 14
