Watch out ladies and gentlemen, another Woods has entered the golfing world.
Cheyenne, the niece of 14-time Major winner Tiger Woods, announced her intention to turn professional. The 21-year old, just like her uncle, signed with the Excel Agency and hopes to dominate the women's tour.
"I am really looking forward to pursuing my goals and dreams to compete at the highest level," Cheyenne told Excel Agency's website.
"As I begin my professional career, I am confident and excited about working with Excel as they help shape my future, both personally and professionally."
Cheyenne is the daughter of Tiger's half-brother Earl Dennison Woods Jr. She has an impressive record as an amateur. Cheyenne set the record for the lowest scoring average with Wake Forest and is a two-time All-American and boasts of 30 victories in her amateur career.
Mark Steinberg, the agent who has represented Tiger since 1998 said his company was excited to sign Cheyenne. "We are excited about the opportunity to represent Cheyenne. She had an outstanding career at Wake Forest and has the chance to be a major force on the women's golf scene."
Cheyenne has played one pro tournament, the Wegmans LPGA Championship in 2009, where she missed the cut by 4 strokes.
