After his triumph, Woods expressed that the winning this tournament was big for his mental game going forward.

Just being able to say to myself that I have won an absolutely amazing event and say that I have performed under high pressure situations is huge going forward. I haven’t been able to say I’ve done that and now that I can it is a big thing for my mental game going forward.

Before this tournament, the 16-year-old was ranked at 604 in the AJGA rankings. His previous best finish in any AJGA event was a tie for 25th place.
