Tiger Woods & Elin Nordegren Expecting 2nd Child

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 18:27:00 GMT

Fore! Tiger Woods and his wife Elin are expecting their second child. Daughter Sam, 1, was born on Father's Day right after the U.S. Open in 2007.

On his website, Woods announced that his wife is expecting their child in late winter. Two weeks after his U.S. Open victory this past June, Woods had reconstructive surgery on his left knee that put him out for the year.

"Elin is feeling great and we are both thrilled,'' Woods said. "While my injury has been disappointing and frustrating, it has allowed me to spend a lot of time watching Sam grow. I can't begin to tell you how rewarding it is being a dad and spending time with her and Elin. The injury has been a blessing and a disappointment.''

After he and Elin married in 2004, Woods said that he definitely wanted more than one child. He was an only child, and Elin has a twin sister.

Congratulations to Tiger and Elin!

Tiger Woods, must be on cloud nine - of course because he won the U.S.Open, but more importantly because he's got a beautiful family with wife Elin and daughter Sam Alexis. I'm guessing he's a very, very happy man.

Tiger Woods: The US Open, Daughter Sam and Father's Day

Tiger Woods Wins - Now He's Hanging Up His Golf Clubs Forever?

Happy First Birthday Sam Alexis Woods!

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 13:04:00 GMT

What do you do when your daddy has just won his third U.S. Open two days before your first birthday? Go to Disneyland? That's an idea, but with Wood's reported $7 million purse he just took home, maybe Disneyland Paris would be more like it.

Tiger and wife Elin's daughter, Sam Alexis, turns one today and it seems like the celebrating may never end for this family. For starters Tiger celebrated his very first Father's Day on Sunday with his daughter (Sam was born the day after Father's Day last year) then his amazing U.S. Open win on Monday, and now the significant first birthday of his first born. I'm thinking the cost of all the champagne and cake could easily eat up half of that seven million.

However you celebrate, have a Happy Birthday Sam!

Tiger Woods Celebrates U.S. Open Win With Daughter Sam Alexis

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 20:31:00 GMT

Tiger Woods is seen here savoring his U.S. Open victory with daughter Sam Alexis, who will turn one tomorrow. Woods' wife Elin handed the tot off to her dad right after his win and before he received his trophy from the USGA.

Woods beat Rocco Medina in a sudden death playoff yesterday at Torrey Pines to capture his third U.S. Open title. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I hear he won $7 million.

Something tells me little Sam might be getting that pony she's been asking for.

Tiger Woods Wins - Now He's Hanging Up His Golf Clubs Forever?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 05:52:00 GMT

Winner of the U.S. Open, Tiger Woods, hugged his daughter, held up his trophy (for the third time no less!), said he didn't feel like playing golf anymore. "I'm glad I'm done. I'm done." What does that actually mean? Is he done for a few weeks, a few months or is he hanging up his golf clubs forever?

"I'm glad I'm done. I'm done." So much can be read into that statement, and it's hard for anyone to know what the 32-year-old pro is thinking, unless he tells us. Does he mean he'll play in The Buick Open in 2 weeks time?

Or perhaps he'll swing those clubs at The AT&T National in July? Maybe he'll be on the green in five weeks at The British Open? Hmm.

It's a very real possibility that he's packing away the golf gear and maybe the only clubs he'll be swinging are at minigolf with his daughter Sam Alexis.

Perhaps it has something to do with the arthroscopic surgery he had on his left knee. Maybe he's sick of golf? Maybe he wants to lay low and spend the rest of his days (I mean really, he's going to be 33 soon! Old!) lazing around, enjoying his wife and young daughter. Maybe he wants to make more babies?

Or maybe he'll be back, better than ever, you just never know. Regardless, congrats on your win!

Tiger Woods just beat Rocco Mediate in a sudden death playoff to win the U.S. Open. Woods won on the 19th playoff hole at Torrey Pines to win his 14th major.

This past Sunday was the first Father's Day for Woods, whose daughter was born last year the day after Father's Day. Woods credits his daughter with helping him to recover from arthroscopic surgery on his knee that had him out of the game for two months.

Congratulations to Tiger! And Happy (early) Birthday to Sam Alexis!

Tiger Woods: The US Open, Daughter Sam and Father's Day

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 21:45:00 GMT

UPDATE: Tiger Woods Wins His Third U.S. Open Title

Whether or not Tiger Woods is on his way to his third U.S. Open title on Sunday one thing is for sure: he'll be savoring his first Father's Day as a dad to daughter Sam Alexis. Sam was born last year on June 18, the day after Father's Day.

Woods credits his daughter with helping him to recover from arthroscopic surgery on his knee that had him out of the game for two months.

“There’s no way I could have gotten through this without Sam being there,” Woods said. “Spending that much time off and away from training and trying to get better, Sam was absolutely incredible, and I had so much fun doing that. It took my mind away from the fact that I had a surgery done, and just watching her grow, walking, running now, it’s been just the greatest thing in the world.”

Father's Day will also be bittersweet for Woods, whose own father Earl passed away in 2006. But the elder Woods lives on in Sam, by virtue of her name. “My father had always called me Sam since the day I was born,” Tiger said in an interview last year. “He rarely ever called me Tiger. I would ask him, ‘Why don’t you ever call me Tiger?’ He says, ‘Well, you look more like a Sam.’ ”

Daddy’s a Hot Stud: Another Roger Clemens Affair

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 02 May 2008 13:05:00 GMT

That shirt! Those pants! That tongue! Apparently the ladies can’t get enough of Roger Clemens. Do you blame them? That print velour shirt is totally making me want to leave my husband and round the bases with Roger, if you know what I mean. Either that or I will have enough fabric to redo my couch and my loveseat.

Roger’s affair with a 15-year-old Mindy McCready recently came to light, and now the New York Daily News is reporting that he also had an affair with Paulette Dean Daly, former wife of PGA golfer John Daly. Clemens, a married father of four, reportedly arranged trips to Anaheim Stadium for Daly to watch him pitch for the Yankees against the Angels. He also apparently bought her some nachos and one of those big foam fingers. I just made that last part up.

Who’s next? Dear God, please don’t let it be Cher.

Tiger Woods is Super Too

Whit Honea — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 19:54:00 GMT

The Super Bowl wasn't the only big sporting event yesterday. Tiger Woods did what he do over in Dubai.

Tiger "fired a seven-under 65 on Sunday to win the European Tour's Dubai Desert Classic for the second time in three years, posting six birdies on the back nine to overcome a four-stroke deficit."

If you don't follow golf that means that he's good.

Tiger Woods Will Never Be Lacking in Balls

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 13:35:00 GMT

Tiger Woods recently won the FedEx Cup and was rewarded a $10 million retirement annuity by the shipping company. That'll buy a lot of golf balls, and also lots of those pointy things that hold the ball still so you can hit it. Oh yeah - tees.

Woods' wife Elin Nordegren sent a letter to FedEx thanking them for making her family rich. "Your generosity and your $10 million retirement annuity will allow my husband, Tiger Woods, a comfortable retirement...and your overall kindness [is] going to give our newborn daughter, Sam Alexis Woods...a chance at a future." I'm wondering if she sent the letter by UPS.

$10 million is a lot of cash. I don't know about you, but I'm in the wrong business. Anybody want to teach me how to swing one of those heavy metal sticks? I mean, a club.

Tiger Woods Wins PGA Championship, Wife Elin and Daughter Sam Are There To Help Him Carry That Big Cup Home

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 08:05:00 GMT

Tiger Woods shot a one-under 69 to claim his fourth victory at the PGA Championship on Sunday, making it his 13th major. I have absolutely no idea what that sentence means, but let me get to the good part of the story: Woods says what made this win so much sweeter than the others was having wife Erin and 2-month-old daughter Sam Alexis there to share it with him. "It’s a feeling I’ve never had before. Having Sam there and having Elin there...this one feels so much more special than the other majors."

Does he get to keep the cup? Can he drink champagne out of it, and then let the baby store her Legos in it? Hey, I told you before I know nothing about golf, just the babies.

Tiger Woods: I Heart Sam Alexis

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 13:05:00 GMT

Fatherhood agrees with Tiger Woods, and it's sweet to hear him gush about baby Sam Alexis, the first child for him and wife Elin. "It was a dream come true for both Elin and myself."

And a mere fourteen days after her birth he's already talking about having another one. In describing becoming a parent he says, "We never experienced anything like that. That was special and something that we want to experience again."

Ah, sleep deprivation makes you say the wackiest things.

Tiger Woods Chooses Diapers Over Birdies

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 24 Jun 2007 22:35:00 GMT

New father Tiger Woods will be skipping this weeks Buick Open in order to be home with his family. Wife Elin gave birth to the couple's first child, daughter Sam Alexis, on June 18 and Woods is choosing to miss the PGA tournament for the first time since 2001 in order to help out with baby duties. Wait'll the guys in the locker room hear about this.

Do they have locker rooms in golf? What the hell is a birdie, anyways? And why DO they wear such bad pants? Sorry to piss all you golfers off, but I prefer the sport when it's played on a mini-course adjacent to a nachos stand and where the third hole is hit through a spinning windmill.
