Gossip

On a day in which Tiger Woods usually hoists a trophy at San Diego's Torrey Pines course, the world’s No. 1 golfer celebrated an even greater achievement:

His first son was born.

Woods announced on his website early Monday that his wife, Elin Nordegren, had given birth to a boy, Charlie Axel Woods. This is the couple’s second adorable child following the birth of daughter Sam Alexis Woods in June 2007.

“Elin and I are thrilled to announce the birth of our son, Charlie Axel Woods, who was born on Sunday, February 8, 2009,” Woods wrote in a statement.

GET PSYCHED! Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren are pumped about baby #2.

“Both Charlie and Elin are doing great and 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.

“I want to thank all of our doctors, nurses and the hospital staff for their personal and professional care. We look forward to introducing Charlie at the appropriate time, and again thanks from all of us for your kindness and support.”

Pictures of Charlie Axel Woods will be posted in due time. For now, click to enlarge more photos of Tiger, Elin Nordegren and daughter Sam Alexis Woods ...

Sitting at home and rehabbing a surgically repaired knee, what else does Tiger Woods have to do but see Elin Nordegren nude? Lucky stiff.

Our point? Woods and Nordegren are expecting baby #2!

"Elin and I are proud to announce that we are expecting our second child in late winter," the golfing great wrote on his official site.

"This has been a year of contrasts," the father of Sam Alexis added. "I had a solid start to the season, won the U.S. Open in an exciting playoff, then unfortunately had to shut it down after successful knee surgery. Now, I have some wonderful news to report. Sam is going to be a big sister."

Woods and Elin Nordegren welcomed baby Sam Alexis Woods in June 2007. The couple also revealed photos of the newborn a week after her birth.

"It is a dream come true for both Elin and myself," he said of parenthood. "I've been changing diapers and doing feedings. I definitely don't sleep now."

Now that we're uncovered more about the shady past of Sam Lutfi, let's take a look at another Sam who is far less controversial... and certainly much cuter, to boot!

Tiger Woods won the Target World Challenge Golf Tournament by seven shots on Sunday at the Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, Calif.

That's good stuff, but what's great is that Tiger had his entire family on hand to share in the glory. Here is a nice picture of Tiger Woods' mother, Kultida, with wife Elin Nordegren and six-month-old daughter Sam Alexis Woods! How sweet!

They are such a cute family. Follow the jump for more Sam Alexis Woods photos ...

As much as we'd all love to see Elin Nordegren nude, Irish magazine The Dubliner has paid the price for replicating an image of Mrs. Tiger Woods in the buff.

The wife of the world's greatest golfer won $183,250 and an apology from the publication that published an abusive article and a fake naked photo of her in 2006.

Trevor White, publisher of The Dubliner, conceded that the article was "cheap, tasteless, and deliberately offensive. It was also completely untrue."

All words from that description also hold true for the Jessica Sierra sex tape. Except for the "untrue" part.

No Elin Nordegren naked pictures here, folks. You'll have to make do with this bikini shot.

In a statement released earlier today, Nordegren welcomed the settlement.

"The false and deeply offensive article in The Dubliner magazine, with the accompanying photograph of another woman wrongly claimed to be me, caused great personal distress to me and my family," she said.

The beauty also said she'd donate the money to a cancer charity in honor of Heather Clarke, the wife of Northern Ireland golfer Darren Clarke, who died of cancer before the Ryder Cup tournament.

"This regrettable episode in our lives in no way detracts from the great love of Ireland that Tiger and I share," Elin Nordegren Woods said. "We look forward to experiencing the extraordinary warmth of its people and of our many friends in Ireland again in the future."
