The PNC Championship has come to an end with Bernhard Langer and son Jason Langer having the last laugh. The action-packed extravaganza that went on for two days was nothing but entertaining. Despite all the action and the Langer’s glorious three-peat with his son Jason, the duo whose presence echoed through the Ritz-Carlton corridors has been Tiger Woods and his son Charlie. With the event done and dusted, there’s one question that remains, though.

The 2023 PNC Championship can be called the unofficial PGA Tour showstopper of the year. This exhilarating experience ignites a frenzy among fans and players alike, ticking all the entertainment boxes. The event was also the second time Tiger Woods was in action after his Hero World Challenge comeback. And although the PNC Championship is more inclined towards embracing the family aspect, it also doesn’t ignore the money perspective. So, how much did Team Woods earn after they paired up yet again for the event?

Team Woods finished in T5 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club with a massive comeback on the final day, which included Jr. Woods’ incredible chip-in. With a priceless reaction from Tiger Woods, Charlie’s remarkable shot-making won the father-son duo a five-figure payout of $47,000. Considering Team Woods was tied with three other teams in T5 (all of whom finished 19 strokes below par), all the pairs will receive the $47K prize money, marking this moment as something unique in the history of the PNC Championship.

Apart from the popular duo, the champs, Bernhard and Jason Langer, will get a total prize money of $200,000. Whereas popular partners like Nelly Korda-Petr Korda and Justin Thomas-Mike Thomas will be receiving $42,750 each. Annika Sorenstam and Will McGee, whose tears stole the hearts of fans, will have to settle for $43,750. That being said, the PNC Championship is far bigger than its decent prize pool. The priceless moments players share with their families would likely be their biggest takeaways from this wondrous event. Well, at least that’s the case with one of the two members of Team Woods.

Coming into the PNC Championship, Tiger Woods expressed his admiration for how much his son’s game had grown over the past year. For him, the event was an opportunity to play alongside Charlie, watching him take the golf community by storm. And that’s precisely what Jr Woods did. His chip-in was one of many astonishing shots the 14-year-old made, another one of which was his 321-yard drive. But what followed that drive – both he and Tiger missed their putts for an eagle attempt – is what left him disappointed, among other things. And he revealed the duo’s aspect that needs improving.
