The younger Woods carded a 10-over-par 80 in
the second round at Oakland Hills' South Course after posting a
12-over 82 on Monday at Oakland Hills' North Course.
His father was in attendance to watch the event that he won at
age 15, 16 and 17, making him the tournament's only three-time
champion.
Charlie Woods made three pars and a birdie through his first
four holes on Tuesday (on the back nine) before hitting a
disastrous stretch.
He closed the back nine by going double bogey, bogey, par,
double bogey, triple bogey, leaving him at 8 over par for the
day.
Woods then settled down on the front nine, getting a birdie and
five pars, but closed bogey-par-bogey. Only 17 players finished
below Woods, including one who withdrew after the first round.
The son and his father will team up at the PNC Championship at
Orlando in December.
Blades Brown was the stroke-play medalist at the U.S. Junior
