Tiger Woods was officially disqualified from the 2015 Masters par-three contest Wednesday after he let his 7-year-old daughter tap in a putt for him.

Competing in the contest for the first time since 2004, Mr. Woods brought girlfriend Lindsey Vonn to cheer him along and let his children, Sam and Charlie, caddy for him.

“We had an absolutely great time,” Mr. Woods told Golfweek. “These were memories for a lifetime.”

Mr. Woods, 39, ended his bid for contest champion by allowing Sam, 7, to knock in a close putt, according to Bleacher Report.

“I’ll always have memories of my pop at Augusta and now Sam & Charlie. An amazing day,” the four-times Masters champion posted on Twitter.
