Tiger Woods Welcomes a Baby Boy!

Tiger Woods is a dad again.

The world's No. 1 golfer and his wife, Elin Nordegren, welcomed a son on Sunday, reports Golf.com.

Woods, 33, confirmed the family addition on his Web site.

The baby's name is Charlie Axel Woods, said the proud father, adding, "Both Charlie and Elin are doing great and we want to thank everyone for their sincere best wishes and kind thoughts."

This is the second child for the couple, whose daughter, Sam Alexis, was born in June 2007, the day after Woods placed second in the U.S. Open.

Were it not for the new arrival – and his taking time to recuperate after surgery on his knee – Woods would have been at Torrey Pines, Calif., in the final round of the Buick Invitational tournament, which he's played in 11 times and won six, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune, which first reported the birth.

But as he announced on the PGA Tour Web site last week: "A lot depends on the baby, which is due pretty soon. That takes precedence over anything I do golf-wise. But I must admit, I am also excited about returning to competition."

Woods added: "Elin, Sam and I are very excited for the new baby to arrive, although that's when the real lack of sleep begins."
