FYI, re: the Woods family...

June 24, 2009

Tiger Woods' niece, Cheyenne Woods, makes her LPGA debut Thursday morning in the Wegmans LPGA in Rochester, N.Y.

Woods, 18 and a sophomore at Wake Forest, tees off at 7:26 a.m.. Her father is Earl Woods Jr., Earl Woods' son from a previous marriage. Karen Crouse of the New York Times has a profile on Cheyenne, who was introduced to the game by her grandfather, in the same garage in which Tiger hit his first shots.
