“That’s what makes it special for both of us. He’s never seen me win a golf tournament,” Woods said.u00a0“Sam was there when I won the US Open in ‘08, and she loves to look at the YouTube videos and look back to Daddy.
But “Charlie’s never had that, never felt what it’s like to be with the trophy,” he added.u00a0Woods said his children always ask “‘Daddy, when are you going to win the tournament?”’
“So this week was nice to be able to get the lead and I held it, and it was awfully special for me to have (Charlie) here to witness it because he understands it now,” he said.u00a0
