He made three birdies and no bogeys, with his dad in attendance.
His latest victory was at another nine-hole event in the 9-11 age division, which Charlie won by three shots - the only player in the field to shoot below par.
The 11-year-old has won his last two tournaments by a combined eight shots.

In a recent interview with Golf Digest and GOLFTV, Woods spoke on his son’s potential.
“He’s starting to get into it. He’s starting to understand how to play. He’s asking me the right questions. I’ve kept it competitive with his par, so it’s been just an absolute blast to go out there and just be with him," he said.
“It reminds me so much of me and my dad [growing up],” Woods added.
When asked if his son could one day break any of his records, he replied, “I don’t know. It depends how bad he wants it.
“It’s all on him. I wanted it at a very, very early age. I wanted to compete and play in this game. That’s on him, whether he wants it or not.”
