As the tech-forward TGL Season 2 kicked off at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens on January 13, 2026, it brought with it a viral moment that reminded fans that even a 15-time Major champion like Tiger Woods is, at his core, just a dad trying to get a laugh out of his teen-age son, Charlie Woods.
While the New York Golf Club eventually secured an 8-3 victory over Tiger’s Jupiter Links that night, the real highlight was not focused on the scoreboard but in the stands.
A viral “not gonna s-k” moment
Tiger Woods, currently sidelined from active play following his seventh back surgery and a March 2025 Achilles procedure, was at the arena in a “mic’d up” advisor role. During the broadcast, he spotted his 16-year-old son watching from the crowd.
With the confidence only a father can deliver, Tiger shouted his now-famous catchphrase:
“I’m not going to s-k tonight!”
Charlie, embodying a classic teenage behaviour, simply gave his dad a blank stare and a slight nod, offering absolutely nothing but a guilty look in return. The reaction was so perfectly awkward that it sent Tiger into a fit of laughter, with ESPN announcers and fans online quickly joining in.
This cheeky line has become a tradition for the legend, as during TGL’s inaugural season in 2025, he famously yelled the same thing to his mother, Kultida, from the course.
A place with room for comedy
This is not the first time the SoFi Center has hosted a Woods family comedy situation. During the 2025 season, cameras caught Tiger trying to convince Charlie to toss him one of his chicken fingers from the stands. Much like the “s-k” joke, Charlie did not obey, leaving the billionaire empty-handed and the internet thoroughly entertained. The typical story of a father embarrassing his son, and old classic.
Tiger also had another comedy moment when during a post-game interview with ‘Awful Announcing’, Tiger accidentally referred to his new teammate, rising star Akshay Bhatia, as “ashtray.” He fastly corrected himself and smiled it off with his characteristic humor, one he brought for the entire evening.
