Charlie Woods wrapped up his final round and secured a Top 10 finish on Aug. 1 at the 49th Junior PGA Championships.

Woods, a rising junior at the Benjamin School and son of legendary golfer Tiger Woods, shot 74 (3-over) in the final round on Friday at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex’s Ackerman-Allen Course in West Lafayette, Indiana.

He finished the tournament 9-under and tied for ninth place overall, 10 shots back of winner Lunden Esterline.

Woods, 16, entered the round tied for second place and in contention for one of two United States Junior Ryder Cup team spots available to the tournament winner and runner-up.

He was unable to replicate the bounty of birdies he amassed in the second and third rounds, however.

Woods spent much of the round hovering near even-par before carding a double bogey on hole No. 15.

The Junior PGA Championships are comprised of two 72-hole stroke play tournaments for boys and girls junior amateur golfers.

This year’s boys and girls tournaments each featured 156 golfers, respectively.
