No, golf legend Tiger Woods’ daughter, Sam Alexis Woods, is not pregnant. The eldest child of Tiger and former model Elin Nordegren recently graduated from Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach County, Florida, and is headed to Stanford University.
Truth About Tiger Woods’ Daughter Sam Pregnancy Rumors
The rumors about Sam being pregnant began a year back when a Facebook page named LIV Golf with about 21k followers posted her photo with the caption, “Pregnant!!!!!!!Tiger woods teenage daughter sam woods addresses the media about her pregnancy.. full details below.”
Most recently, the same story was picked and reshared by another page named Golf Plus, using a different caption and linking to a site that published a fake story about Sam being pregnant. There is absolutely no truth to the story, and we advise people to be aware of these fabricated stories online.
Sam Is Following in Her Father’s Footsteps
Sam Woods will be heading to Stanford University this fall, as confirmed by her alma mater’s Instagram post. She’s following in her father’s footsteps in more ways than one — Tiger Woods also attended Stanford on a golf scholarship in 1994, where he earned honors such as Pac-10 Player of the Year, NCAA First Team All-American, and Stanford’s Male Freshman of the Year.
While Tiger left Stanford after two years to turn professional at age 20, Sam has carved out her own athletic path. Unlike her younger brother, she didn’t pursue golf. Instead, she played soccer and competed in track and field at The Benjamin School, where she earned second place in the 2025 Palm Beach Post Pathfinder Award for sports, according to the school’s May press release.
Tiger himself has admitted that Sam’s lack of interest in golf was rooted in their family dynamic. Speaking on the Today show in May 2024, he said,
“You know, hey, when she was growing up, golf took daddy away from her. I had to pack, and I had to leave, and I would be gone for weeks and there was a negative connotation to it,” Tiger explained.
