Tiger Woods isn't the only one in the family who knows how to perform under pressure.

The 15-time major champion's 16-year-old son, Charlie Woods, won his first Amateur Junior Golf Association event on Wednesday at the Streamsong Resort Black Course in Bowling Green, Florida. Woods, a high school junior, began the day tied for the lead at 9-under 135 before shooting 6-under 66 in the final round to win the Team TaylorMade Invitational.

Woods' final round featured eight birdies and two bogeys but finished with four consecutive pars to seal the three-stroke victory over Willie Gordon, Luke Colton, and Phillip Dunham. He defeated a 71-player field that included four of the top-five ranked AJGA players, headlined by Miles Russell, who finished seventh at 9-under. Charlie's previous best finish was a tie for 25th at the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley in March.
