Tiger Woods Welcomes Son Charlie Axel

It’s a boy for Tiger Woods and wife Elin! Son Charlie Axel Woods arrived on Sunday, February 8th; he and mom are “doing great,” according to an announcement on the golfer’s website. “We had a couple names and Charlie just fit,” explains Tiger. ” As far as the Axel, that’s Elin’s brother’s name so we wanted to make sure it stayed in the family.”

Charlie joins big sister Sam Alexis, 19 months. In a statement, Tiger writes,

“We want to thank everyone for their sincere best wishes and kind thoughts. Sam is very excited to be a big sister and we feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful family … We look forward to introducing Charlie to you at the appropriate time.”

Tiger, 33, and Elin announced the pregnancy in September. The baby was due later this month.
