Who does Woods want Charlie to copy?

Despite being one of the greatest golfers in the world, Woods is training his son to have a completely different style of golf. In fact, the golf legend recently talked about how he asked his son to avoid copying his swing. And fans were surprised to find out how Woods wanted his son to copy the spectacular swing of Irish professional golfer Rory McIlroy.

“I told [Charlie], ‘Don’t copy my swing. Copy Rory’s,’” said the golf legend during the third round of the Hero World Challenge. “Have you ever seen Rory off balance in a shot?…Not ever. That’s one of the things my dad instilled in me…You can swing as hard as you want, but you need to have balance.”
