Tiger Woods to father a cub

tiger_woods_og_elin_165147c.jpgGolf phenomenon Tiger Woods made a special birthday announcement today–he is going to be a father.

Woods writes on his website: “As some of you know, today is my 31st birthday. I’ll spend it quietly with family and friends, but Elin and I have more exciting news to share: We are expecting our first child this summer. Obviously, we couldn’t be happier and our families are thrilled. I have always wanted to be a dad. I just wish my father could be around to share the experience.”

Tiger and his father, Earl Woods, shared a very close bond before his death in May of this year after battling prostate cancer.

This will be the first child for Tiger and his wife, Swedish model Elin Nordegren. The two were introduced by Swedish golfer Jesper Parnevik, who hired Elin as his nanny. (Kudos to Jesper’s wife–I would never hire a Swedish model as a nanny!) Tiger and Elin were married in 2004, four years after they met.

Happy Birthday to Tiger and Congratulations to them both!
