Notah Bogey III, eponymous to the famous junior golf national championship, has turned 50. It means he’s finally able to register himself at the PGA Tour Champions, which he already has. An analyst with the Golf Channel and NBC Sports, Bogey’s experience and knowledge about the game has made him an unsung sports pundit.

However, his long-standing camaraderie with golf legend, Tiger Woods, has also made him a focal point of attention. He made his mark in college golf alongside Woods at Stanford University. The pair are still close to each other, and so are their families. Thus, a question on the rise of the prodigal son, Charlie Woods, was inevitable.

Did Charlie Woods play in Bogey’s junior championship?

The reputed analyst sat down for a Q&A recently, where he talked about a range of topics, including his potential return to golf in the veteran league and his friendship with Tiger Woods. Among those, he was asked about Charlie Woods and his ability to focus amidst rising expectations.

For the unversed, Bogey III has a close attachment to junior golf. Since turning away from the action on-course after a sustained back injury, the 50-year-old has ventured into multiple golf avenues.

One of them was his involvement at the junior level, which eventually led to the creation of the Notah Begay III Junior Golf Championship. Charlie played in the event in November this year, securing an 11th-place finish. He contested in the Boys 12-13 age category, finishing with a score of one-under par.

How does Notah Bogey III feel about the pressure on Charlie Woods?

While admitting the pressure could be great, Bogey insisted that Tiger and his family were doing all they could to keep young Charlie sheltered. “Oh, I don’t know. Tiger does such a great job of trying to alleviate as much of that as possible. It’s just tough when your father is the greatest player that ever played. I don’t know how you get out of, I guess, that shadow, so to speak,” he said.

“But Tiger and the family do a wonderful job of just trying to let it be about playing golf and having fun.”

Bogey further added that the outside glare was putting Charlie into focus because of their “intrigue.” “But, of course, the rest of us are the ones that put a magnifying glass on the whole thing and the whole process, because it’s an intriguing story that people want to know about,” he claimed.
