Knee Injury Can't Keep Tiger Down

Just over two months removed from surgery that is keeping him out of golf for the rest of the year, Tiger Woods announced that his wife is pregnant with the couple's second child.

According to a posting on Woods' website, the baby is due in "late-winter." Woods and his wife, Elin, had their first child just after the 2007 U.S. Open.

In the wake of Tiger's gritty 2008 U.S. Open victory, it was revealed that he would need surgery on the knee that clearly was affecting his game--nearly keeping him from holding off Rocco Mediate on Sunday and in the Monday playoff.

While the golf world has since been forced to watch Padraig Harrington succeed in two Tiger-less majors, Tiger's been becoming the father figure that we all know he idolized his Dad to be.

"While my injury has been disappointing and frustrating," Woods writes, "it has allowed me to spend a lot of time watching [1st child] Sam grow."

Despite being perphaps the world's most successful individual athlete of all time, he's a good dad to boot.

Keep up the good work, Tiger. And your wife is pretty hot, too.
