Tiger Woods and Charlie headlined the PNC Championship at the Ritz-Carlton Club, Orlando. Despite immense pain in his right foot, Woods did not withdraw his name from the event. And the reason was his family’s support.

Family is indeed everything. Everyone should be blessed with family support to achieve great things in life. The way late Earl Woods supported and guided his son, made him the greatest golfer of all time. Similarly, Woods has been teaching his son to become the future G.O.A.T. However, last month, all this seemed like it could have been impossible. The former number-one golfer was supposed to compete in the Hero World Challenge. However, he had to withdraw his name from the event due to plantar fasciitis on his right foot. He only focused on his hosting duties.
