UNDATED (AP) - On the day Tiger Woods usually hoists a trophy atTorrey Pines, the world's No. 1 golfer was busy with the birth of
his first son.
Woods announced on his Web site early today that his wife, Elin,
had given birth to a boy, Charlie Axel Woods. It is the couple's
second child following the birth of daughter Sam Alexis in June
2007 on the day after the U.S. Open.
The 33-year-old won the U.S. Open last summer for his 14th
career major. That was the last tournament he's played because of
knee surgery that ended his 2008 season. He is expected to return
before the Masters, possibly as early as the Accenture Match Play
Championship on Feb. 25.
Woods wrote in a newsletter last week that his return to golf
depends largely on the birth of his baby.
