Tiger Woods on Hand as Son Charlie Signs With Florida State at Benjamin School

Charlie Woods made it official on Friday, Nov. 6, signing to play golf at Florida State during The Benjamin School's National Signing Day ceremony in Palm Beach Gardens. His father, Tiger Woods, was there in Florida State gear, USA Today Sports reported.

Charlie's mother, Elin Nordegren, also attended. Several other Benjamin School athletes signed with colleges at the same ceremony.

From verbal to official

The 17-year-old first announced his commitment to the Seminoles on social media in February, choosing Florida State over his father's alma mater, Stanford. He will join the program in fall 2027, in a recruiting class that also includes Miles Russell, the No. 1 player in the AJGA Rolex Rankings.

Charlie won the AJGA Team TaylorMade Invitational in May 2025 and signed an NIL deal with TaylorMade in September. He helped Benjamin win its regional title this fall, and the Buccaneers will chase another state championship later this month.

Florida State has made the NCAA Tournament in five of the last six seasons and finished as national runner-up in 2024.
