Reigning Masters champion Sergio Garcia of Spain became a father on Wednesday as wife Angela gave birth to a baby daughter who shares a name with an Augusta National hole. Garcia tweeted a photo of the newborn about eight hours after she arrived, saying, "Beautiful Azalea Adele Garcia was born on March 14 at 1:54am. So proud and impressed with my wife @TheAngelaAkins and the way she handled the pregnancy and delivery! Love you both so much."
Azalea is also the name of the 510-yard, par-5 13th hole at Augusta National and closer of the famed three-hole stretch nicknamed "Amen Corner." The baby arrived four days early but in plenty of time for Garcia to adjust to fatherhood before defending his Masters crown at Augusta National on April 5-8.
