Maybe Tiger is crossing his fingers for a rocker "Axel" ? really? I think Earl would have been a good fit, but Eldrick Woods Jr.????
Good for them though, wonder if Tiger is going to get the snip???

Talk about pressure!
Axel? Might as well call him Ball Joint. How about Tie Rod? Piston, I like that.... At least it's his middle name.
I hate crazy names.

They now have a daughter to dominate the LPGA tour and a son to dominate the PGA tour.
This is the future of golf, right here.

Talk about hitting the jackpot in the gene pool... probably the greatest golfer of all time for a father, and a supermodel for a mother.

We actually did that when my son was born 10 months ago, his first name is Benjamin & his middle name is Larry, after my Dad, who passed away in 2003. Great minds think alike! If only Tiger had thought of that....

From Wikipedia: "Axel is a Scandinavian form of the name
Absalom[1] meaning "
Father of peace"." (Link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axel)
It sounds as though both Elin and Tiger put a lot of thought into that middle name. It seems very appropriate to me.
EDIT: They might well be "Lost" fans, too. Charlie's sacrifice of his own life in that show was pretty stirring.

Congrats Tiger and Elin. As for everyone else on the PGA tour... as if he needed anymore incentive to win, he now has another mouth he has to feed.

I read that he might have been named after Charlie Sifford, the first African-American to receive a PGA tour card and be inducted into the WGHOF. I also read that Elin might have a brother named Axel.
