PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – In December, Tiger Woods played alongside his son, Charlie, en route to a runner-up finish in the PNC Championship.
On Wednesday, Woods will team up with his other child, daughter Sam.
Woods chose his daughter to introduce him for his induction into the World Golf Hall of Fame, which will be held beginning at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday at PGA Tour headquarters within the shadows of TPC Sawgrass, home to this week’s Players Championship, the Tour’s flagship event.
Also being inducted into the Hall of Fame is former PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem, who will be introduced by Hall of Fame member Davis Love III, and three-time U.S. Women’s Open champion Susie Maxwell Berning, who will be introduced by Hall of Fame member Judy Rankin.
Trailblazer Marion Hollins will also be inducted posthumously.
Sam, 14, was born the day after Woods tied for second in the 2007 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania. She was at Southern Hills in Oklahoma later in the year when Woods won the 2007 PGA Championship.
Woods, who has won a record-tying 82 PGA Tour titles and 15 major championships, played alongside Charlie, 13, at the PNC Championship for the second time. This year, it was the first time Woods played in a tournament since his near-fatal car accident in February in the Los Angeles area.
Woods is still recovering from injuries sustained in the crash.
