Tiger Woods has revealed that his wife Elin was actually admitted to the hospital with complications of her pregnancy while Tiger played in the final round of the U.S. Open. Elin and the doctor had told Tiger there was nothing he could do and just go out and win the tournament.
It’s easy to see why Tiger may have lost concentration a few times during that last round. It all turned out fine and Tiger Woods’ baby was born with no complications. Most people were pondering the possibility of Tiger missing the British Open and didn’t figure the U.S. Open would be in question.

Wow! That explains why Tiger couldn’t seem to focus in enough to hit a birdie putt on the back 9 during the final round. It seemed like he was always just one birdie away from really putting the pressure on. I can’t blame him though, U.S. Open or not, that’s got to be tough to focus on golf with your pregnant wife in the hospital.
