As we wake up this morning, a new rule in golf has been put up in place. While it doesn’t involve any on-course ruling, the judgment affects an important part of the sport–golf carts.
According to the latest laws, the state of Florida won’t allow its teenagers to drive golf carts without proper identification. Many in the region have applauded the move, but how does it impact Tiger Woods’ son Charlie Woods, and his golf endeavor?
Florida ruling bans Charlie Woods from driving golf carts
The latest reports came this morning that the state of Florida has put a restriction on teenagers and children driving a golf cart around the region. The decision was taken in view of the emergence of golf carts as a convenient private transport vehicle, the effects of which have forced carts to have all the necessary amenities as a regular car.
But the usage of golf carts has been an attractive point for many youngsters accompanying their parents on a course. With the latest ruling, a fifteen-year-old must have a learner’s permit to drive a cart, and a year over should be equipped with a driver’s license.
Earlier, even 14-year-olds were allowed to ride golf carts without any permission. The news is especially depressing for the young and upcoming Charlie Woods, son of golf icon Tiger Woods.
The talented youngster, who’s a native of Florida’s Jupiter Island, turned 14 in February earlier this year. He’s an avid golfer too and often follows his father to golf tournaments. Sadly, those adventures must be done without a cart hereafter.
