The golf pro shares his two children with ex-wife Elin Nordegren
Tiger Woods’ two kids are his biggest fans โ on and off the course!
The golf champion, who shares Sam Alexis, 16, and Charlie Axel, 14, with ex-wife Elin Nordegren, has opened up in the past about the importance of fatherhood and having his kids by his side.
Back in 2015, when both kids were able to join their dad for his showing at the Masters Tournament, Tiger said having them there was a “full circle moment.”
“This tournament means so much to me in so many different ways,” he said at a news conference per ESPN. “We all know what happened in ’97 with my dad’s health, and he was pronounced, well, he was dead at one point earlier that year; came back, and then came here and I won the Masters. To now have come full circle and to have a chance to have my kids out there and be able to share that with them, it’s special.”
From being little ones on the sidelines, to playing golf right alongside him, here are some of the sweetest moments shared between Tiger and his two kids.
Bring It In.
Tiger Woods shared a sweet moment with his two little ones Sam and Charlie at the 2015 Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia. Sam complemented her dad’s hot pink polo in one of her own while her little bro sported a bright orange hoodie.
Proud Dad.
Sam looked as cute as can be in her dad’s arms on the sidelines of a Stanford Cardinal football game in 2009 โ where Tiger, an alumnus, was serving as an honorary captain.
Two Cheers!
A teeny, tiny Sam was on deck to celebrate with her dad in 2008 after he won the US Open championship in San Diego.
Dog Days
Tiger wrapped his son up in a big hug on the 18th green of the PNC Championship in 2022.
“You know, I don’t really care about [plantar fasciitis],” Tiger said of the injury he was struggling with at the time. “I think being there with and alongside my son is far more important, and to have a chance to have this experience with him is far better than my foot being a little creaky.”
