Sam Woods, the daughter of golf legend Tiger Woods, has always carved her own path, refusing to let her father\u2019s towering legacy define her. While many expected her to follow in Tiger\u2019s footsteps, Sam has chosen a different route\u2014one that reflects her unique passions and ambition<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sports have always been a significant part of Sam\u2019s life, but her heart lies on the soccer field, not the golf course. As a defensive powerhouse and team captain, she recently led The Benjamin School to its first-ever Florida state championship. On March 1, Sam played a pivotal role in a hard-fought 1-0 victory over the Episcopal School of Jacksonville, capping off her high school athletic career with a triumphant finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, Sam is stepping into a new chapter\u2014one focused on academics rather than athletics. This fall, she will attend Stanford University, the same school her father attended. However, while Tiger\u2019s time at Stanford revolved around golf, Sam is pursuing her interests in psychology and biology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cShe\u2019s going to Stanford in the fall, so everything is really trending,\u201d Tiger confirmed in an interview with Golf Digest<\/em>. Despite Stanford\u2019s renowned golf program, Sam has no plans to join it. Instead, she\u2019s embracing a future filled with labs, lectures, and academic exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sam\u2019s decision underscores an important truth: being a Woods doesn\u2019t mean being a golfer. She\u2019s proving that the family name can stand for excellence in any field. While her younger brother, Charlie, is embracing the pressure of carrying on the Woods golf legacy, Sam has chosen to follow her own passions\u2014and Tiger couldn\u2019t be prouder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sam and Tiger share a strong bond, though it wasn\u2019t built on golf. Growing up, Sam often felt the absence of her father due to his demanding career. However, over the years, they\u2019ve found other ways to connect. Whether caddying for him at the PNC Championship or delivering a heartfelt speech at his Hall of Fame induction, Sam has always been a steadfast supporter of her dad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Congratulations, Sam, on entering Stanford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sam Woods, the daughter of golf legend Tiger Woods, has always carved her own path, refusing to let her father\u2019s towering legacy define her.
