As much as Charlie Woods is taking over the world with his superb golf skills, the insane pressure that must engulf him is beyond imaginable. However, this is exactly the reason for the conflict between his parents, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren.

Ever since the 2021 PNC Championship, professionals and fans have heavily lauded him for his talent and skills. And as he grows, the surmounting pressure can become too much to handle, which is why his parents are desperate for a solution.

An insider told OK! magazine about the ongoing clash of ideas between the two. They said, “Tiger thinks it would be great for Charlie to have a destiny like his. Tiger isn’t trying to be pushy, he’s just proud of his son and sees a lot of potential in him.” The 15-time major champion’s point of view is completely understandable, since the easiest and most logical way to achieve a goal is to start as early as possible.

However, Elin, Tiger’s ex-wife, and Charlie’s mother, also states a valid point. The insider disclosed, “Elin worries he’s going to suffocate Charlie. She reasons it’s hard enough to be a kid these days without this as added pressure.” And while she doesn’t “want golf consuming their son’s life,” she will not enforce Tiger’s choices on him and has made that very clear. The insider added, “She concedes that it boils down to what Charlie wants.”
