Tiger Woods says baby, wife more important than golf

As he prepares for this weekend's US Open, Tiger Woods is facing questions about the next major golf tournament of the year -- next month's British Open -- if, for no other reason, he is unsure of whether he'll even be able to compete.  With his wife Elin due to deliver their first child in July, and the tournament scheduled to begin July 19, a decision will likely need to be made -- and according to Tiger, the decision will be an easy one:

I really don't know what is going to happen.  Hopefully the baby will be healthy and arrive on time.  But at the moment, I cannot be certain about my schedule...Being there for the birth is the most important thing.  Not a golf tournament.  If Elin is going to have the baby the week of the Open, I don't go.  It's that simple.
