Thomas doesn’t have any kids. What kind of silly statement is this?

Much of the field had two adults as teammates. Many of the players are older and have grown children. Just because the tv coverage only showed Tiger and his son doesn’t mean that everyone else other then JT had small kids as a partner.

Annika played with her dad.
Bubba played with his Father in Law.

JT can't help it if his dad is a PGA Professional.

Charlie's the man. Sticking that approach to 4 feet for eagle was pretty impressive... saw a few others where he was pretty close to holing out too. Love the banter between him and JT as well

The few shots I saw his dad hit were terrible. His swing speed is around 7mph.

That was really fun to watch - curious to see where Lil John Daly and a Charlie end up - I predict Lil John gets further...

HERE is a good article about Mike Thomas.

He attends almost all of JT's tour events and is still his coach.
In the article dated June 2020 he is 60 years old and stated that he only played 2 rounds of golf last year.
I think he played pretty well for a rusty 60 year old.

A lot of these “kids” were in their late 20s to early 40s and former pro/college golfers or current golf professionals. Only a handful of actual children were playing: little John, Charlie, Duval’s kid and Kuchar’s kid are who I can think of off the top of my head.

Qass Singh is probably almost as good as his dad at this point. I think he plays or used to play mini tour golf. And Vijay is no slouch for a senior member. He still competes on the regular Tour.

Qass was actually teeing off from the Pro Tees because of his age/handicap and Vijay was from the 1 up tee because of his age.

Yeah. Trevino’s grandson either is or was a pro on smaller tours, so I’m sure he was playing from the back tees as well. Tom Kite’s son is a college golf coach. Gary Player’s grandson was like 30 years old. Same with Norman’s son and Omera’s son. I left out one other actual child. Tom Lehman’s son is a senior in high school. Believe he played golf and football in high school but is committed to play college football, so obviously he’s an athlete. And Little John us committed to play at Arkansas. Really the only small children I can think of were Charlie (11) and Kuchar’s son (13 iirc). Duval’s son appeared to be around 18 or so if I’m just guessing based on looking at him. Fuyrk’s appeared to be about 16 years old too now that I think about it.

"I've got blades in his hands so he learns how to play golf instead of learning with all those forgiving golf clubs." - Tiger Woods on teaching his son Charlie, according to Jack Nicklaus
