Tiger Woods and his son Charlie walked onto the course Sunday in the 15-time major winner's signature red, and the pair nearly pulled out some of the vaunted Woods magic on the final day at the PNC Championship.

Team Woods turned in a bogey-free round in the scramble event and finished in second place at 25 under par, two strokes back of John Daly and his son John II at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando.

Woods and his 12-year-old son recorded an eagle on the third hole and carded 11 consecutive birdies from number seven through 17 to put themselves in contention, but just being on the course was victory enough for the legend.

"We got on a nice heater,'' Woods told reporters. "Charlie was hitting the ball unbelievable. [Winning] would have had a special meaning in my heart for sure, there's no doubt about that. And it still does.

"The fact that I'm able to have this opportunity this year, even a couple weeks ago we didn't really know whether or not I would be doing this, but here we are.

"And we had just the best time ever, and I just wish I could have walked down the fairways with him and been side-by-side with him the entire time like we were last year.''

Woods used a cart for nearly the entire round as he continues to recover from the February car crash that left him with severe injuries to his right leg and foot.

The former world number one will turn 46 on December 30 and said he knows he will never play a full PGA Tour schedule again, though he hopes to "pick and choose" some events to play in once he gets closer to full strength.

His playing partner Sunday, Matt Kuchar, said he felt Woods' game was good enough to compete now, but Woods vehemently disagreed with that notion, saying: "I'm not at that level."

While his future inevitably came to mind Sunday, Woods was more interested in reflecting on what it took to get back out and play against his long-time friends and rivals the last two days.

"The competitive juices, they are never going to go away," he said. "This is my environment. This is what I've done my entire life. I'm just so thankful to be able to have this opportunity to do it again.

"Earlier this year was not a very good start to the year, and it didn't look very good. But the last few weeks, to push as hard as we have the last seven months … and to have this opportunity to be able to play with my son and to have these memories, it's worth all the pain."
