LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Tiger Woods and his wife, Elin, are “thrilled” to welcome the newest addition to their family – son Charlie Axel Woods.
Tiger and Elin welcomed their new son on Sunday – and mom and baby couldn’t be better, the golf superstar said on his personal Web site.
“Elin and I are thrilled to announce the birth of our son,” Tiger wrote. “Both Charlie and Elin are doing great and want to thank everyone for their sincere best wishes and kind thoughts.”
Charlie is the second child for the couple, who also have a daughter, Sam Alexis, who was born in June 2007.
“Sam is very excited to be a big sister and we feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful family,” Tiger added. “We look forward to introducing Charlie to you at the appropriate time.”
Tiger, 33, hasn’t played in a pro golf tournament since undergoing knee surgery in June 2008. While he is expected to return for the prestigious Masters in April, Tiger noted last month that his career hinges largely on his family.
“That takes precedent over anything I do golf-wise,” he said.
