Because I wouldn’t want anyone out there to not be kept up-to-date on the important college athlete signings, I bring you this bit of important news via Sports by Brooks; Wake Forest University recently scored the 2-time Arizona high school women’s golf champion. The young lady in question, Cheyenne Woods, has been nearly as dominant as her uncle, some guy named Tiger Woods.
The younger Woods, who has been playing golf since she was 5, received training from her late grandfather, Earl Woods, who was instrumental in making Eldrick Woods into Tiger Woods. Unfortunately, because of the distance between their homes, Earl was never able to give her the same kind of instruction that led to Tiger being on his way to the title of greatest golfer of all time. However, both Tiger and Earl watch(ed) video of her playing and provid(ed) advice and evaluation.
Cheyenne has already won the American Junior Golf Association Nike Golf Junior, the Big I Junior Classic and two U.S. Kids Golf World Championships and she also shares quite the resemblance to her famous uncle.
All the hoopla surrounding her doesn’t seem to faze Cheyenne, she told the Charlotte Observer:
When I first started playing, my relationship was no big deal because everyone around home knew about it. But when I started going to national tournaments, I was answering a lot of questions. I’m different from the person that some people think I am. I’m pretty laid back. I like to have a good time. I like to spend time with my friends.
Let’s hope that Tiger’s influence and her seemingly good attitude helps her along so she doesn’t share the fate of other teenage phenoms who failed, (nod Michelle Wie.) Also, if she wants to find out if her uncle wants to sponsor a middling sports blog, I’d be totally open to that too…
