Masters 2024: Can Son Charlie Play With Tiger Woods at the Par-3 Contest?
Follow Us
After Tiger Woods attends the Champions dinner on Tuesday night with Jon Rahm’s Spanish dinner, he will be preparing for the next big ceremony of the 2024 Masters. That is the Par-3 Contest. The ceremony was started in 1960 and it has always been held on a Wednesday since then.
The decades-old tradition of the men’s first major witnesses families coming together to enjoy the contest without any pressure. Comparatively, it is the day when the golfers are more relaxed before the official game follows. So, will Woods be able to enjoy the course with his son, Charlie Woods, on his bag? The simple answer is yes. The beloved event gets the children, grandchildren, wives or girlfriends, nieces and nephews to caddie for their golfers.
Hence, Charlie Woods may become a looper for Mr. T. Moreover, he may even take his first shot on the Par-3 nine holes in Augusta National. Or there are chances of seeing Woods’s daughter, Sam Woods, caddie for him, as she did last year at the PNC Championship. Either of his kids may take up the caddying duties as they did in 2015 on the 9-hole course behind the 10th tee in Augusta National.

The course has holes ranging from 99 to 155 yards shuffled on the northeast side of the golf course, with DeSoto Spring Pond and Ike’s Pond situated there to be played over by the pros. If you could not be one of the patrons at the Augusta Nationa to watch the contest, here’s how you can watch it from the comfort of your home.

How to watch the Par-3 Contest?
The Par-3 Contest will start on April 10th at noon, with the families of all the pros and some of the former champions donning the traditional white jumpsuit of the Masters. Over the course, the players will not be asked to keep a score as their families will be allowed to do the occasional drive, chip, or putt. However, while the patrons in Augusta National will watch it live, the ones at home can only watch it after a few hours.

The event action will be streamed by the Masters on Masters.com starting at 2:00 p.m. So set up your reminders to watch the golfers play a round of golf with their families and enjoy the family moments. One winner will be announced by the end of the 9-hole and he will receive an engraved crystal bowl and probably the historical curse. Funnily enough, no golfer has gone on to win the Masters after winning the Par-3 Contest. So, that tradition may follow this year as well or the spell might break. Who knows?
