Charlie Woods put himself in the mix after the first round of the Junior Players Championship on Friday.
Woods, a senior at the Benjamin School and son of legendary golfer Tiger Woods, shot 71 (1-under) and entered the clubhouse in tied for eighth place on Sept. 4 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
Woods was three shots back of leader Esteban Llorente from Colombia at the time he concluded his opening tournament round.
He pulled off a bit of magic on TPC Sawgrass' famous hole No. 17, the "Island Green."
Facing a 134-yard tee shot with no wind and a back-right hole placement, Woods pulled his wedge a bit and for a few seconds, thought he had found the water. Fans standing on a bank behind the hole gave a baseball umpire's "safe" signal, indicating the ball was dry.
