Tiger Woods and his wife, Elin are expecting a sibling for little Sam Alexis who was born in June, 2007.

He wrote on his website:

This has been a year of contrasts,” “I had a solid start to the season, won the U.S. Open in an exciting playoff, and then unfortunately had to shut it down after successful knee surgery.

“And now, I have some wonderful news to report.

Sam is going to be a big sister.”

Elin and I are proud to announce that we are expecting our second child in late-winter.

“Elin is feeling great and we are both thrilled,” Woods went on. “While my injury has 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.”

He talked about his golf course that is being constructed in Dubai and ended his post with:

I hope everyone had a great holiday and I’m already starting to wonder if Sam’s sibling will be a boy or a girl.

Congratulations to the Woods’ family!!
