Tiger Woods 911 call
Tiger Woods on accident: 'Situation is my fault' ; lawyer Mark NeJame tells police that today's interview is canceled

By Sara K. Clarke and Susan Jacobson, Orlando Sentinel

2:42 PM EST, November 29, 2009

For the third day in row, professional golfer Tiger Woods will not be talking to investigators about the early-morning crash that sent him to the hospital.

A spokeswoman for Florida Highway Patrol said the agency was contacted at about 1 p.m. from prominent local attorney Mark NeJame, who said he is now representing Woods. NeJame told FHP that its interview with Woods scheduled for today was canceled.

It's the third day in a row that Woods has declined to talk to investigators. On Friday, Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren Woods, told troopers seeking to interview Woods that he was sleeping. They agreed to return the next day, but that appointment postponed shortly beforehand by Woods' agent, Mark Steinberg of IMG. Troopers were asked to return Sunday, said FHP spokeswoman Sgt. Kim Montes.

Woods is not obligated to speak to investigators; only to provide his drivers license, registration and proof of insurance, Montes said.

FHP also released the 911 call dispatchers received from a neighbor after Woods drove his Cadillac Escalade into a tree.

"My neighbor, he hit the tree," the unidentified caller said. "I see him, and he's laying down."

The caller said he couldn't tell if Woods was breathing. After dispatchers asked the caller if he was near Woods, the caller said "I'm with him right now." When they asked again how he was breathing, the line went dead.

"His phone must have gone out of range," one dispatcher said.

Earlier today Woods broke his public silence about the accident and posted a statement on his website, tigerwoods.com, claiming responsibility for the accident and denouncing rumors that have surfaced about the incident:

"As you all know, I had a single-car accident earlier this week, and sustained some injuries. I have some cuts, bruising and right now I'm pretty sore.

This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again.

This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible.

The only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false.

This incident has been stressful and very difficult for Elin, our family and me. I appreciate all the concern and well wishes that we have received. But, I would also ask for some understanding that my family and I deserve some privacy no matter how intrusive some people can be. "

Woods, the world's No. 1-ranked golfer, suffered facial cuts when he crashed into a fire hydrant and a neighbor's tree while leaving his mansion in southwest Orange County about 2:25 a.m. Friday, said Windermere police, who initially responded to the call. There has been widespread speculation in the news media and among bloggers on what precipitated the accident, but no official account has emerged.

The 2009 Cadillac Escalade sustained $5,000 to $8,000 in damage to the front right and left, troopers said. The left and right rear side passenger windows were also broken out.

On Friday, Windermere officials said Elin Nordegren Woods told them she had smashed a window of the SUV with a golf club and pulled her husband out. Windermere police said that when they arrived, Woods was lying on the ground, dazed and bleeding from the lips and with blood in his mouth. The crash knocked Woods, 33, unconscious for about six minutes, according to a call report compiled by the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

The Sheriff's Office, which does not investigate auto accidents but took the 911 calls, on Saturday issued a statement saying the information released by Windermere "may, in fact, be counterproductive to the ongoing investigation into this incident." Windermere police Chief Daniel Saylor did not return repeated phone calls.

Woods was not given a breath test, nor was his blood or urine tested. Troopers need probable cause that someone is under the influence of alcohol or drugs to demand such tests, and they had none, Montes said. Such probable cause could include finding liquor bottles in a car or smelling alcohol on someone's breath.

Kissimmee defense lawyer Don Waggoner said Saturday that troopers must arrest someone before they test for alcohol or drug intoxication. They cannot draw blood unless they can't get a breath or urine sample, and they can't take those unless they suspect intoxication, he said.

"If there's no reason for them to believe he's under the influence of alcohol, then they have no probable cause," Waggoner said. "People have accidents all the time, and they aren't under the influence of alcohol."

After investigators determine what caused the crash, they could issue a ticket or do nothing at all. Woods was hospitalized for less than 12 hours afterward at Health Central Hospital in Ocoee.

"We consider this a minor crash even though his injuries were serious," Montes said.

The crash has drawn international media attention. Dozens of reporters and several satellite news trucks lined the entrance to the gated Isleworth community, among Central Florida's most exclusive and home to other professional athletes and corporate leaders.

Woods is scheduled to host and play in the Chevron World Challenge starting Thursday in Thousand Oaks, Calif. The tournament benefits his foundation.

It might be the most reported low speed crash ever … However, this is what happens when one of the most famous athletes in the world creates news during a slow holiday news cycle.

Tiger Woods cancels Meeting with Police for Third Time, But Releases Statement … Tiger Hires Atty Mark Nejame

This is rather interesting, Tiger Woods has hired Attorney Mark Nejame. Yes, the same Mark Nejame who at one time was the attorney for Cindy and George Anthony, the parents of tot mom Casey Anthony who is facing charges for the murder of her daughter Caylee Anthony. My it is a small world after all.

Quote
Mark NeJame is about to find out. The world’s No. 1 golfer has hired the high-profile Orlando defense attorney. NeJame will help guide Woods and his wife, Elin Nordegren Woods, through a public-relations thicket after the golfer injured himself in car accident outside his home early Friday. The incident has prompted worldwide speculation because of Woods’ stature and the Woods’ silence up to now on the crash.

This is rather interesting as it is being reported that Nejame will be working for both Tiger and Elin Woods to diffuse the PR situation. Woods has no legal obligation to give a statement to police, Tiger has to worry about other things like image and endorsement.

I think that his wife heard about the affair and laid into him...If that is the case, she needs to suffer the consequences of domestic violence the same as a man who have to do..while I feel her pain and feel sorry for what she must be going through, violence looks no better on her than it would on a man imo...
I am really disappointed if Tiger did cheat...He has such a nice family and he is was a good role model ....sigh...

another thing, does anyone else feel that if this was one of us that we would not be able to sleep or avoid the police if they came to our homes after something like this happened? nooooooooo....I think that we would be doing a blood or breathalyzer test at the very least...not saying that he was intoxicated but after an accident and at that time of morning.....one could draw some conclusions...

Do I feel bad for Tiger Woods?  No.

Do I think he is guilty?  Yes.

Is he a role model?  No.

Society has changed.  Kids today view these over paid athletes, musicians, actors as role models.  They see all this money being thrown around and all the drinking and partying they do and the lifestyles they live that this is what a role model is.

Parents, teachers and hard working people are role models.

He still doesn't get it.  Is this a joke to him.  Because he can buy anything does he thinks that will make everything better.

A role model?  I think not

but up until this...has he ever done anything negative that we have heard about? when I said that he has been a role model, he has been one up until now compared with others who have been partying and womanizing, such as the actors and athletes that you also mentioned...We are in agreement for sure that teachers, parents and hard working people are the true role models..but up until now, he has been those things as well... hasn't he or am I naive?
I think that actors/ athletes, models, muscians etc..are way over rated and way way way over paid...and they usually are not the best people or models...but Tiger has not been involved in DUI's, cheating on his wife (till now?) cheating on his taxes or beating his wife that we know of etc......he hasn't behaved horribly before now has he? I don't follow him a lot but I think that he has been a pretty decent guy and has tried to live his life in an ok fashion before this episode....jmo...

Cookie, you are correct.  He has been one up until now and he has been pretty decent until now.  But for me personally I don't view him as a role model.

This is just a personal opinion of mine.  I have a problem with todays athletes.  So he falls in that category with me.  I hope he straightens out his problems.

Golf superstar's squeaky-clean image takes a beating

By Lee-Anne Goodman (CP) – 4 hours ago

WASHINGTON — The squeaky-clean image of one of America's best-loved athletes has taken a hit following Tiger Woods' mysterious middle-of-the-night car crash, lurid allegations about an extra-marital affair and reports his wife angrily wielded a golf club as her husband fled their home.

No one's saying officially what prompted Woods to speed off in his Cadillac Escalade from his Florida home in the wee hours of the morning on Friday, only to smash into a fire hydrant and a tree.

A statement on Woods' official website Sunday didn't provide much by way of detail.

"This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me," Woods wrote.

"I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again. This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumours that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible."

What's known, according to the official police report, is this: When investigators arrived at the scene in the gated community of Windermere, Fla., after a neighbour called 911, a semi-conscious Woods was lying on the ground bleeding from facial lacerations as his Swedish-born wife, Elin Nordegren, tended to him.

On Sunday, Woods cancelled another meeting with state troopers, the third straight time he's done so.

Nordegren told police she smashed the back passenger seat windows of the SUV to pull her husband out of the vehicle after the crash, which seems a Herculean task given the size of the Escalade and her slight stature.

But unnamed sources told the website TMZ.com that the accident took place after a "domestic issue" in the home. They said Nordegren had scratched Woods' face and had been swinging the golf club in a rage over published allegations that Woods is involved in an extra-marital affair.

Wood disputed that version of events Sunday.

"The only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false."

The National Enquirer reported last week that Woods is involved with a New York City nightclub hostess. Rachel Uchitel is best known as the sobbing young woman in an iconic photograph taken on Sept. 11, 2001, as she held up a photo of her missing fiance, who died in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.

The tabloid has quoted a friend of Uchitel's as saying she and the golfer are "in love," and Uchitel has acknowledged staying in the same hotel as Woods recently in Melbourne, Australia, where the golfer competed in the Australian Masters. But she denies they are involved, says she was in Australia for business and has vowed to sue the Enquirer for defamation.

There's no question that the saga will become a sensation in the days to come. Uchitel has hired Gloria Allred, a high-profile lawyer who rarely shies away from the media spotlight.

It seems unimaginable that Woods - with his clean-cut image and reputation as one of the most disciplined athletes in professional sport - could inherit golf's bad boy mantle from the troubled John Daly.

Daly has battled alcoholism, has been married four times and struggles with a gambling problem. He recently had gastric bypass surgery and says he's lost 90 pounds. Woods, on the other hand, has a sterling reputation, is one of golf's fittest players and has established numerous youth charities.

But there's no question the Woods story contains all the sordid elements that will keep Americans as transfixed as they always are when a celebrity appears at the brink of a spectacular fall from grace. The story has received worldwide attention, and reporters have been stationed outside Woods' posh gated community, near Orlando, for days.

TMZ, which has been ahead of the pack on the story, says Woods even alluded to another athlete's front-page troubles when he told a friend Nordegren had "gone ghetto" in the aftermath of the National Enquirer story.

TMZ reported Woods told a friend: "I have to run to Zales to get a 'Kobe Special."' When the friend asked what he meant, the world's No. 1 golfer replied: "A house on a finger."

Woods was purportedly referring to Kobe Bryant, the basketball star who bought his wife, Vanessa, a $4 million diamond ring upon when he was acquitted of sexually assaulting a 19-year-old hotel employee in Colorado in 2003.

Bryant insisted their tryst was consensual. But the scandal tarnished his image as his endorsement contracts with McDonald's and Nutella were terminated.

Woods has not won a major this season, and was asked about the state of his marriage earlier this year.

"Everything's been good. It's the same as always. Nothing's changed. It's still the same relationship," he said.

Woods is a 14-time major champion and, according to Forbes magazine, the first athlete to break through the billion-dollar earnings mark. He and Nordegren have been married for five years and have two young children, daughter Sam and son Charlie.

He's scheduled to play his last tournament of the year next week, when he hosts the Chevron World Challenge in Thousand Oaks, Ca. The annual event benefits his charitable foundation.

Sources tell TMZ the Florida Highway Patrol is now focusing on obtaining a search warrant -- allowing them to seize medical records from the hospital that treated Tiger Woods -- in an attempt to determine if the wounds Woods sustained are consistent with a car accident or domestic violence.

Boy this case is turing into reverse celeb preferential treatment.

If this was not Tiger Woods, does anyone think the police would be going to such ends? For a solo car accident or domestic violence!

How many brutal domestic violence cases just get brushed under the carpet?

Do your report and get on with it. I would tend to think that his MVA insurance would be more concerned seeing if they can get out of paying any claim for crash damage to the Escalade or the busted out window from the "Big Bertha" driver.

RED-

I completely agree. No way. A warrant for his injuries from a one car accident on his property where no alcohol was involved?

I'm sorry, I have revered him as an athlete for Y E A R S. He is apparently human and flawed like the rest of us.

That said, and I do not advocate domestic violence in any way, if he is running around on his wife behind her back, I hope she has her own counsel.

How many brutal domestic violence cases just get brushed under the carpet?

Do your report and get on with it. I would tend to think that his MVA insurance would be more concerned seeing if they can get out of paying any claim for crash damage to the Escalade or the busted out window from the "Big Bertha" driver.

RED-

I completely agree. No way. A warrant for his injuries from a one car accident on his property where no alcohol was involved?

I'm sorry, I have revered him as an athlete for Y E A R S. He is apparently human and flawed like the rest of us.

That said, and I do not advocate domestic violence in any way, if he is running around on his wife behind her back, I hope she has her own counsel.

I agree...about the auto accident...and about him being human like the rest of us..we all make mistakes...
but the domestic violence if there is any, should be investigated imo.... if it were reversed and she was injured by domestic violence, no difference...she should not be beating him up either...imo....

Cops Pursue Warrant in Woods Case

Posted Nov 30th 2009 12:05AM by TMZ Staff

Sources tell TMZ the Florida Highway Patrol is now focusing on obtaining a search warrant -- allowing them to seize medical records from the hospital that treated Tiger Woods -- in an attempt to determine if the wounds Woods sustained are consistent with a car accident or domestic violence.

He and his team are orchestrating every move.  Even if she has her own counsel his team will be advising every move.

She will listen to whatever is told to her at this point because they will find out that she did indeed cause these bruises.

why does "the other woman" need an attorney? and Gloria Allred yet?
I have mixed feelings on this...I suppose if she and Tiger did not have an affair and her name is being drug through the mud, she would want to voice her innocence on it..however, if they were messing around, now everything will come out ...sometimes silence is golden? ...I do feel sorry for Elin...going through anything like this is hard enough but when it is so public....geez....it would be awful!

OK more questions  ::MonkeyHaHa::

Did he have company over for Thanksgiving.

The fight must have started during the day and escalated at 2 am.

If this is true how did this person hear what he was saying.  It's not light his house was attached to another house.

How come his neighbor didn't know it was Tiger who was on the floor.  If I lived next to one of the most famous athletes in the world I would know if it was him.

Stay tuned because I believe this is going to get more interesting.

Tiger Woods tells of his quiet nights in Australia watching footy

    * By Carly Crawford and Michael Warner
    * From: The Daily Telegraph
    * December 01, 2009 12:14AM

TIGER Woods spent his nights in Australia watching the NFL - not out partying with a New York nightclub hostess.

In an exclusive email sent to The Daily Telegraph just days before Saturday's car smash, Woods told of how he spent his time at Crown Casino and vowed to bring his wife and children to Melbourne as early as next year.

But the superstar sportsman's life took a spectacular turn when his black Cadillac Escalade mysteriously ran off the road in the middle of the night, just metres from his home in Florida.

"It was good to be able to follow the NFL while I was in Melbourne," Woods told The Daily Telegraph. "I enjoyed being there. I was made to feel very welcome and it was nice to win for the first time in Australia. It would be great if it helps get more people into golf."

The golfing legend yesterday broke his three-day silence over the bizarre low-speed crash, saying he was to blame and his wife Elin Nordegren the hero.  But he failed to properly explain the events that left him bloody, dazed and unconscious with his wife hovering around him with a golf club.

"This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again," he said.

Woods, 33, lashed out at claims he was feuding with his wife over reports he had hooked up with nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel in Melbourne.

"The only person responsible for the accident is me," he said. "My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false."

Ms Uchitel, 34, has admitted to staying at Crown in the same week as Woods but explained she was there on business with a boyfriend.

A US website yesterday claimed that Tiger had told friends Ms Nordegren had "gone ghetto" during the fight over the false allegations and that he needed to buy her an expensive ring to make it up. Both Woods and Ms Uchitel strongly deny an affair.

"This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumours that are currently circulating are irresponsible," Woods said.

Emergency 911 tapes released yesterday show it was Woods' neighbour, not his wife, who called for an ambulance at 2.30am.

"I need an ambulance immediately, I have someone down in front of my house they hit a pole," the frantic neighbour said. "They're laying on the ground now . . . he hit the tree. I see him, he's laying down." Woods was treated in hospital for cuts to his lips after the car crash.

Last night the case took a new twist, with website TMZ reporting police were considering applying for a search warrant for the golfer's hospital records to establish whether Woods' injuries occurred before, during or after the crash.

Yesterday Woods turned police away from his Florida home for the third day in a row. He is not legally required to supply an interview but police want to ask him and his wife about the "inconsistent" damage to the car's windows.

"It's unusual, but I will say it's happened before," Sergeant Kim Montes said of the cancelled police interviews.

"Right now, we consider her (Elin) a witness," he told The Daily Telegraph.  Swedish model Ms Nordegren, who has two children with Woods, told the first officers at the scene that she heard the crash, then used a golf club to smash the windows so she could get her husband out of the car wreck.

But TMZ reported, and Woods denies, that she hit the car with a golf club over the reported affair.  "The (two passenger side) windows that were damaged - that's not consistent with the impact of the crash," Sgt Montes said.

Meanwhile, the tabloid magazine embroiled in the scandal came out swinging after Ms Uchitel rubbished its report about the affair.

She denied being friends with the magazine's source for the article but the National Enquirer published pictures of Ms Uchitel with the source, Ashley Samson, from a holiday in Spain.

Prior to the crash, Woods told The Daily Telegraph he had already begun work on his 2010 schedule with a view to defending his sensational Australian Masters victory.

"I enjoyed the week. My future schedule is something we continue to work on," he said in the email. "I hope to bring Elin, Sam and Charlie to Australia in the future."

Hi Tib good to see you.

Sometimes stars find out ahead of time when a story is going to break.  I am betting that Tiger got wind of this and he wrote this email.

I would love to know the date of this email.

Tiger 911 Caller's Lawyer To Hold Conference

Posted: 6:12 am EST December 1, 2009Updated: 7:03 am EST December 1, 2009

Comment On This Story ››
WINDERMERE, Fla. -- Around 11:00am Tuesday, the attorney representing the man who called 911 after Tiger Woods' crash over the weekend is scheduled to speak with media. The news conference comes as organizers of Tiger's charity golf tournament are scrambling to make other plans after he announced he won't participate.

VIDEO REPORT: Lawyer For Tiger 911 Caller To Speak Out

The man's lawyer says his client decided to hold news conference because he has been besieged by interview requests from reporters from around the world. The neighbor is the only person who called 911 after Woods crashed his SUV into a fire hydrant and then hit a tree outside of his Isleworth home.

"I have a neighbor, he hit the tree, and we came out here just to see what was going on," Woods' neighbor told the emergency operator.

The caller told the 911 operator he was not sure if the pro golfer was breathing and explained how he was drifting in and out of consciousness.

"I need an ambulance immediately," said Woods' neighbor. (Listen to Call)

Woods said in a statement on his website that injuries from the single vehicle crash will prevent him from playing in his own golf tournament in California this week, He added that he will not play golf professionally at all for the remainder of the year.

Eyewitness News asked marketing experts if that will hurt Tiger Woods image.

"I don't think his not playing in the tournament is going to affect his image one way or the other," said Richard Lapchick, DeVos Sports Business Management.

The Florida Highway Patrol said on Monday that investigators were almost finished with the traffic crash report.

The report could be made public for the first time on Tuesday, but WFTV legal expert Bill Sheaffer says it is unlikely Tiger will face any charges since investigators do not believe drugs or alcohol were contributing factors.

"If there had been a finding of alcohol or drugs, then you bet it's a legitimate investigation to find out what occurred prior to the crash," said Sheaffer.

Tiger Woods' neighbors in Windermere have been very supportive of him, despite the fact that their town has been crowded with reporters from around the world.

"There's a lot of speculation, but it's not a lot of peoples' business either, so it would be nice to see them go away and let the down get back to the way it used to be," said Karen Murphy, Windermere Resident.

Windermere police have not returned phone calls from Eyewitness News to say whether they have increased patrols to deal with the influx of media.

Several times on Monday, drivers stopped in the middle of the road to take pictures of the swarm of media and the neighborhood.

Tiger Woods to be fined over car crash

Article from: The Courier-Mail

AFP

December 02, 2009 09:47am

TIGER Woods will face no criminal charges for crashing outside his Florida mansion but the world's number one golfer has been issued with a careless driving citation.

Woods must also pay a $US164 ($A177) fine and will lose four points from his licence -- one third of the total needed in a year to be suspended -- but the Florida Highway Patrol investigation into Friday's crash is now closed.

There was insufficient evidence for any greater charges and no claims of domestic violence were involved, police spokeswoman Kim Montes said.

The patrol "is not pursuing criminal charges in this matter nor is there any testimony or evidence to support any charges of any kind other than careless driving," Montes said.

Police considered trying to obtain medical records from when Woods was taken to a nearby hospital after his early morning accident, but ultimately did not check to see if his injuries were consistent with those from a crash.

"It was determined that there was insufficient evidence available to issue a subpoena for any additional medical information that might exist in this case," Montes said.

"We cannot speak to the existence of any blood evidence."

After the accident, paramedics asked his wife, Elin Nordegrin, whether the unresponsive Woods was on medication and she went into their home and brought out two bottles of medicine.

The crash occurred early Friday Florida time when Woods ran into a fire hydrant in his neighborhood.

It followed a report in the National Enquirer that he had an affair with New York party planner Rachel Uchitel, an accusation that she has denied.

Woods and his wife have refused to sit down with police investigating the accident.

Woods has called the rumors “unfounded and malicious”.

But now  a second woman has emerged, claiming she had sex with Woods "20 times".

Cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs claims she also has SMS messages to prove the liasion.

Cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs claims affair with Tiger Woods

Article from: The Daily Telegraph

December 02, 2009 06:12am

A SECOND woman has claimed she had a sexual affair with golfing superstar billionaire Tiger Woods - and she's prepared to release SMS messages to prove it.

The new woman linked to 33-year-old Woods has been identified as a cocktail waitress called Jaimee Grubbs, 24,  who appeared recently in an American TV program called Tool Academy.

US media reports have already claimed that Woods has been having a sexual affair with a New York nightclub hostess and that the pair met up in Melbourne when he was Down Under for the Australian Masters.

Claims of the first affair leaked out after Woods was injured in a bizarre car crash outside his home amid reports he was fleeing his wife after she confronted him.

No criminal charges: Tiger Woods to be fined for careless driving

American gossip website TMZ is reporting Grubbs claims she had a 31-month affair with Woods and has approached US Weekly, an American publication to tell her story.

"The woman, Jaimee Grubbs, claims she met Tiger in Las Vegas in April, 2007. The woman - a cocktail waitress who was 21 at the time -- began what she says was a long-running affair with Tiger," TMZ reported.

"According to US Weekly, Grubbs has more than 300 text messages from Tiger - who married Elin Nordegren in 2004.

"The magazine, which comes out tomorrow, claims Grubbs had 20 sexual encounters with Tiger. US Weekly has photos, racy texts from Tiger, as well as a voicemail from November 24, in which Tiger suggests his wife might be on to the alleged affair."

The New York Post reported today several other women have claimed to had sex with Woods.

The Post also reported that Grubbs, who says she met Woods in April 2007, alleges she had "20 sexual encounters with Tiger and has photos, more than 300 racy texts and a voicemail from November 24. In the voicemail, Tiger is said to suggest that his wife might know about the alleged affair."

Meanwhile, Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) area commander Major Cindy Williams told reporters Woods would be served with the citation today.

He could be fined $US164 ($A179) and lose four points off his licence.

"The investigation has determined that Mr Woods is at fault in the crash. This afternoon the FHP is in the process of issuing a uniform citation of careless driving to Mr Woods,'' Williams said.

"Mr Woods has satisfied the requirements of Florida law by providing his registration and proof of insurance to us.

"With the issue of this citation, the Florida Patrol has completed its investigation into this matter.''

Another spokeswoman, Kim Montes said was no other charges would be laid.

"The FHP is not pursuing criminal charges in this matter, nor is there testimony or any other evidence to pursue additional charges of any kind,'' Montes said.

"After reviewing the evidence available to us and (consulting with the state attorney) it was determined there was insufficient evidence to obtain any additional medical evidence that might exist in this case.

"There are no claims of domestic evidence by any individual.''
 
She said the FHP would make no more comment or hold further press conference.
 

In another development, a New York nightclub hostess has today denied reports she had a fling with Tiger Woods in Australia, as neighbours backed the golf superstar's account of his mysterious early morning car crash.

Rachel Uchitel, 33, said she had met Tiger twice in her life and only in her professional capacity as director of VIP services at a New York night club.

"It's the most ridiculous story. It's like they are asking me to comment if there are aliens on Earth," Rachel Uchitel told the New York Post.

Friday's crash came two days after the National Enquirer reported Woods, 33, was having an affair with Uchitel, 33, who was in Australia at the same time as he was competing there last month.

There has been media speculation that Woods's wife Elin, a Swedish former model, confronted him and chased him with a golf club, smashing in the rear windows of the vehicle as Woods tried to flee, causing him to lose control.

But the 14-time major winner issued a statement on his website Sunday hitting out at the "unfounded and malicious rumours".

And Uchitel insisted "Tiger and I are not friends," telling the New York Post that the fact that she was in Australia at the same time as Woods was only a coincidence.

"Like I could just walk up to the 35th floor and go to the Presidential Suite if Tiger Woods was staying there? Like they would hand a girl a key at the front desk and let her go to Tiger's room. I didn't see him at all in Australia. I was just there with friends."

Bill Sharpe, an attorney for Woods' neighbour Linda Adams and her family, said Tuesday that the golfer's injuries looked like those from a car accident rather than a domestic dispute, as some reports have alleged.

"The scratches on his face were consistent with someone who maybe was in a minor car accident and hit his head on the windshield," Sharpe said. Injuries were "consistent with a car wreck and inconsistent with him being beat up.

"None of his injuries looked like he was beat up by his wife."

Woods was found lying dazed beside his wrecked car Friday at 2:25 am with facial cuts and bruises after driving into a fire hydrant and a tree. The 14-time major champion was treated at a hospital and released.

Woods, who has remained holed up in his mansion since, said the injuries from the crash will prevent him from playing in this week's Chevron World Challenge in Los Angeles, an 18-star golf event to benefit his charity foundation.

A refusal by Woods to explain why he was driving at such an hour, where he was going and what prompted him to go has only increased the speculation.

But Uchitel said the source of the tabloid stories was someone she knew slightly and with whom she was not close, a woman she described as a drug user and prostitute.

"This girl was never around me for any of the time she was saying she was," Uchitel told the Post. "If I was having some big, lurid affair, I would not tell this girl. It's just ridiculous."

Despite Uchitel's denials, the media storm refuses to go away for Woods, whose absence from the Chevron golf tournament ended any hopes he might offer more details about the crash.

With Woods typically not starting his seasons until late January, it could be almost two months until he faces reporters again.

Police charges remain possible from what Woods called an "embarrassing" crash, but the neighbours' attorney shed more light on the night's events.

The noise brought Adams and her two adult sons out of their adjacent home to see what had happened.

Sharpe said they found Elin kneeling beside Woods and upset over his injuries, saying she asked them to call police and medical personnel. She did not have the golf club she said she used to smash in rear windows and pull Woods from the vehicle.

The neighbours wrapped a blanket around Woods, saying he did not appear to have been drinking - police have said alcohol was not a factor in the crash - and awaited help.

"One thing we want to make clear is that Mrs. Woods' attitude was consistent with her being concerned about her injured husband," Sharpe said. "Mrs. Woods was trying to help him. Mrs. Woods was worried about her husband."

Woods and Elin have been married for five years and have two children, daughter Sam Alexis, born in 2007, and son Charlie Axel, born in February.

Alleged Mistress Played Tiger's Voicemail at Work

Posted Dec 2nd 2009 12:58AM by TMZ Staff

Jaimee Grubbs -- the cocktail waitress who claims she hooked up with Tiger Woods -- bragged about her relationship with Tiger at work, even playing a voicemail he left her in front of her coworkers.

An employee at Stone Rose Lounge in L.A. -- where Jaimee works -- tells TMZ, Tiger's alleged mistress came into work last Friday and played the infamous voicemail -- in which Tiger reportedly asks Jaimee to remove her name from her outgoing message because his wife was suspicious.

Tiger's latest statement:

 12/02/2009
Tiger comments on current events
By Tiger Woods

   
I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.


Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week, my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. The stories in particular that physical violence played any role in the car accident were utterly false and malicious. Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect.

But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don't share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.

Whatever regrets I have about letting my family down have been shared with and felt by us alone. I have given this a lot of reflection and thought and I believe that there is a point at which I must stick to that principle even though it's difficult.

I will strive to be a better person and the husband and father that my family deserves. For all of those who have supported me over the years, I offer my profound apology.

Tiger Woods faces $300m divorce payout if marriage ends


    * By Michael Warner and Carly Crawford
    * From: Herald Sun
    * December 04, 2009 12:01AM

    * Wife has huge prenuptial agreement
    * Couple attending marriage counselling
    * Third woman claims affair with golfer

TIGER Woods is staring at a $300 million payout if his marriage breaks down after another alleged mistress came out of the woodwork yesterday.

Reports last night said Woods' wife, Swedish model Elin Nordegren, has a huge prenuptial agreement that would make it the most expensive celebrity divorce in history.

Overwhelmed by evidence of multiple extramartial affairs, the superstar golfer admitted to "transgressions" that had hurt his wife and children and ruined his public image, the Herald Sun reports.

The admission came as another nightclub hostess, Kalika Moquin, 27, alleged a seven-month affair with Woods.

A picture obtained by celebrity website TMZ showed him in a Las Vegas nightclub at 1.30am on October 4 with a woman who was not his wife.

Woods and Nordegren were having intensive marriage counselling sessions yesterday, with a record divorce payout at stake.

Michael Jordan holds that record with his wife, Juanita, receiving an estimated $150 million settlement.

Greg Norman is not far behind with a $128 million payout to his wife of three decades, Laura Andrassy.

It also emerged yesterday that New York party girl Rachel Uchitel, who stayed at Crown during Woods' Melbourne visit last month, was there as the billionaire's guest.

In another twist, sources revealed Woods burned the candle at both ends at Crown, hitting the tables in private gaming suites at the top of the Crown Towers Hotel.

Woods abandoned the Masters gala dinner, where he was the guest of honour, to join US friends in the gambling session. He left his mum Kutilda to dine alone with Premier John Brumby.

A humble Woods did not respond to specific allegations yesterday, but admitted he had brought shame on his family.

"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart," he said.

"I have not been true to my values and the behaviour my family deserves.

"I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect."

Woods, 33, posted the extraordinary admission on his website amid mounting proof of his philandering with women he met in nightclubs from New York to Las Vegas.

The most damning evidence was a voicemail message recorded two days before last weekend's car crash that exposed his torrid private life.

A man believed to be Woods is heard telling LA cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs, 24, to expect an angry phone call from his wife.

"Hey, it's, uh, it's Tiger. I need you to do a huge favour. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you."

A nervous-sounding Woods ends the message with: "Do this for me. Huge. Quickly."

Grubbs, a reality TV contestant, claimed a 31-month romance with Woods.

His sponsors - including Nike, Gatorade and Gillette - are sticking by Woods.

And Mr Brumby said he'd welcome him back to defend his Australian Masters title next year.

But golf was the last thing on Wood's mind yesterday as he and his wife bunkered down in their Florida mansion with marriage counsellors.

Marriage counselling or financial advice?   ::MonkeyTongue::


Tiger Woods and wife in marriage counselling

Article from: The Daily Telegraph

December 04, 2009 02:40pm

TIGER Woods has been accused of offering one of his alleged lovers $1m to stay silent on their sex romps in Australia and asked his wife to accept a $55m deal to save their marriage.

Details have emerged today of the bombshell deals being offered by 33-year-old golfing billionaire Woods’ representatives to put a firm lid on his private life scandal, as other reports suggest Woods could be $300m out of pocket if his wife demands a divorce.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Party planner Rachel Uchitel
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 
        * More pics: Tiger Woods in Australia
        * Special section: Tiger Woods at the Masters

Woods is also reportedly undergoing intense marriage counselling a day after the golf superstar admitted "transgressions" in his private life.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported Woods was holed up at the family home in Florida with his wife Elin Nordegren as the steady stream of tabloid revelations concerning his alleged affairs showed no sign of abating.

Meanwhile, the key aspects are that the first woman alleged to have been Woods’ lover, New York nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel, was about to do a dramatic U-turn and reveal publicly in the US her earlier claims not to have been his mistress were lies.

Uchitel was scheduled to hold a press conference to tell all, including details of their love trysts Down Under when Woods was staying at Melbourne’s Crown Casino during the Australian Masters.

But Uchitel abruptly canceled the press conference after getting calls from the golfer's reprsentatives, according to a new report.

Several sources told Radaronline.com and TMZ.com that Woods' camp is working hard to keep Uchitel from talking. One told the site that a $1 million payoff was discussed.

Uchitel was first named by the National Enquirer as a Woods mistress, which she denied in an interview with The New York Post in which she blatantly lied about her history with Tiger.

The New York Post reports that after this, Uchitel scheduled a press conference for today as TMZ.com reported that she did in fact have a relationship with Woods, something she was expected to disclose to the media.

TMZ also reported that it was text messages from Uchitel that sent Woods' wife Elin flying into an angry rage the night of his crash, which happened early Friday.

Other women also have come forward claiming to have had affairs with the father of two.

Uchitel hired power lawyer Gloria Allred as soon as the news of Tiger's bizarre car crash near his home broke.

Before the Friday morning accident, where Woods drove his SUV into a fire hydrant and then a tree in his Florida gated community, Uchitel and Woods were texting each other.

When Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, confronted him, she grabbed the phone and called Uchitel, TMZ.com reported. Woods and Nordegren then fought, breaking the phone in the process.

Meanwhile, it has come out that Woods also footed the bill for Uchitel's trip to Australia, according to Radaronline.com. Woods was there as well.

Additionally, Radar reported today that Woods offered cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs, one of the other woman who is claiming to have had an affair with him, a job and a place to live in Las Vegas.

TMZ reported today that Rachel Uchitel who has publicly denied she had sexual relations with Tiger Woods, but has said privately she did indeed have an affair with the golfer.

And it is now claimed it was her - not Jaimee Grubbs - who caused an argument between Tiger and his wife, Elin Nordegren, that immediately preceded Tiger's SUV crash.

In a statement this week, Tiger said, “I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart.”

According to the Daily Beast, "words are evidently not enough to mollify Elin:

"The Daily Beast has learned the details of what it’s costing Tiger to keep his marriage intact. A lawyer familiar with the hastily conducted negotiations of the past 72 hours said that as of Wednesday evening Elin has been offered a $5 million payment immediately if she agrees to stay and her prenuptial agreement is being revised to give her up to an additional $55 million.

"When the couple married on Oct. 5, 2004, at the Sandy Lane resort in Barbados, Elin signed a prenuptial agreement reportedly worth $20 million after 10 years of marriage, not considered a large payout for someone who was already as successful as Tiger by then.'

Seahorse..I know what this says but I don't believe it for one minute! She will be paid money...no doubt about it in my mind...otherwise, why hire a high profile attorney like Gloria A.? why get an attorney at all
just deny deny deny and let em talk...if she doesn't ever admit anything and just keeps a low profile it would go away....Make no mistake about it, she is all about the money...imo..

I really feel so badly for Elin...she stayed out of the public eye..didn't flaunt her children around for photos and basically was a good partner and wife to Tiger..they were only married for 5 yrs! I don't know if this marriage can be saved...or even if it should be...there must have been some attachment to the 2 women that we know of that he was messing with...if it was one night stands, more forgivable since there would not be attachment...but these affairs lasted for awhile, were still going on...those would be hard to get over or to forgive in my mind...I think that Tiger has his work cut out for him in saving this marriage..and he will forever have this hanging over his head and one day his children will find this out about him as well...really sad for everyone cause he couldn't keep his putter where it belonged!

TMZ is reporting a baby stroller and a red buick are parked in front of Tiger's "other house', it may be other Million dollar house. I wonder if Elin moved to the their other house with the babies and her mother?  That is what I would do...and walk and go to the park and Disney Land, she should just buy a dark wig and get out with her mother and kids.

Why Tiger Woods would he mess this up?

Article from: The Courier-Mail

Doug Ferguson

December 04, 2009 11:00pm

WITH a model wife and all the money anyone could want, why would Tiger Woods risk sleeping around? Doug Ferguson, who has reported on Woods for 12 years, casts light on the fall of sport's last good guy.

BEFORE anyone can study the revelations of this week – at least three extra-marital affairs and a colourful incident with his wife, a golf club and his vehicle's window – the first thing anyone needs to know about Tiger Woods off the golf course is what he named his yacht.

Privacy.

Woods gave up a big piece of that when he turned pro with a "Hello, World" ad campaign that earned $40 million then quickly became one of the most recognisable athletes on earth.

He will invite some people into that world, but only so far.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Party planner Rachel Uchitel
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 
        * More pics: Tiger Woods in Australia
        * Special section: Tiger Woods at the Masters

Once asked why he enjoyed scuba diving so much, Woods replied: "The fish don't know who I am."

And behind that statement, paradoxically, is the reason why Woods' confessions have sent such reverberations around the world.

Woods's reputation and sporting prowess have combined to earn him about $1 billion. That reputation would be worth preserving.

Until this week there was no cynicism surrounding Woods, no doubts about his sincerity, no questions about his marriage. He went on tour with his parents, his wife Elin Nordegren was usually by his side, his endorsement contracts were at least partly built on his unsullied reputation.

Just two weeks before the first revelations of his serial infidelity The Courier-Mail lauded his behaviour in an editorial during the Australian Masters last month: "In contrast to some other sports which have stars too often providing negative publicity, golf has a first-rate diplomat in Woods." Part of the reason he was able to carry off such a clean-cut image was his almost obsessive privacy. Few insights were ever given into his private life, meaning there was little scandal to sniff.

When he made history in 2001 as the only golfer to hold all four professional majors at the same time, Golf Digest put him on the magazine cover posing with the four trophies, along with his U.S. Amateur trophy.

Did he keep them on the mantel? A special trophy case? His bedroom?

That remains a mystery.

Even for a magazine with whom he has had a longtime relationship, the trophies were moved out of his house for the photo shoot. That $2.4 million home near a driving range in Florida is off limits to anyone not part of his circle. In response to a query on his Facebook account in October, Woods said he and his wife had managed to stay out of gossip magazines and tabloids. "I think we've avoided a lot of media attention because we're kind of boring," was the reply.

That changed last weekend with a press release from the Florida Highway Patrol that Eldrick Tiger Woods, 33, of Windermere, struck a fire hydrant and a tree shortly after pulling out of his driveway. There were confused accounts of his wife being on the scene.

Then came word of a small photo of Woods on the cover of the National Enquirer, alleging an affair with a New York nightclub hostess.

Seahorse! how cute you look!


It is being said that both Tiger's and Elin's mother were in the house when the fight broke out between Elin and Tiger...they must have heard what was going on unless they were in "the inlaw" section of the house where they didn't hear anything...I really think that Elin had caught Tiger texting at the morning as has been said and she lost it! can't say as I blame her..she caught him red handed, with both mothers in the home, both kids, his wife and it was Thanksgiving for crying out loud!
this is going to be a very expensive "transgression" transaction for Mr. Tiger! I don't think that his wife will remain with him for the long pull...and why should she? everytime he would be out of her sight she would be doubting him...he really blew it....she is a beautiful person inside and out from what I have seen and she totally did nothing to deserve any of this...How sad for her and her kids...and Tiger too, even though it was his doing that ruined his marriage..imo....

Hi, Cookie.  Yes, I agree with all you said.  Elin should have whacked him with a three iron, instead of a wood.  It is sad about the whole episode and now his women are coming out of the woodwork.  Gloria Allred (I remember her when she wore all red) apparently got a lot of money for Rachel whatshername.  Isn't it blackmail when someone says, "Give me a lot of money and I won't tell?"  I read in "People" today that Rachel lost her fiance' in the 9/11 attack.  She was a producer for Bloomburg TV.  It seems she went off the deep end after his death and became a night club hostess.  Sad story, but she knew he was married and it should have mattered.

Yes..I read that article in People today too...She sure looks better today than she did back then doesn't she? she looks better as a brunette...yes sad for her loss...even more reason that she should not want to cause another woman pain by destroying her marriage...jmo...

you can bet that Gloria got a bunch of money as did Rachel! and it does sound like blackmail to me as well! Tiger has got to feel so betrayed by these women...the only woman who really had his back was his beautiful wife who he betrayed...tsk tsk...

Thank-you, Cookie, I am dressed for Santa.  I was given a nice gift by Brandi she decked me out, and thank-you for mentioning
about being dressing up. 

TMZ, reportedly, saw a stroller at the other house, she could be separated from him and the PR people are saying different. I do hope Elin sticks around for another 30 Million (just for her security), she can just show up at special events...woman really need to be smart, I hope the worst is over.

This is mostly old news, but, what is news to me that a photo of her and the children can fetch up to 250,000.
Accordingly to the article (if believed) she only needs to hang out for two more years for $$$, after all this agony,
what is two more years?


snip...

 A Los Angeles-based paparazzo told me that a photo of Elin and the children would fetch $250,000. Some agencies are offering $100,000 just for tips that pay off with photos.

I am careful on clicking on mysterious links, I am leary that more photos would appear and not the ones I want to see.

Brandi has good taste and a fun imagination, she is creative and orderly, that is quite the fete to be both.

I am careful on clicking on mysterious links, I am leary that more photos would appear and not the ones I want to see.

Brandi has good taste and a fun imagination, she is creative and orderly, that is quite the fete to be both.

You also have a fun imagination, Cookie. Have a good day everyone. It is a joy to be a Monkey and thanks to all of you.

Fourth Tiger Woods mistress Jamie Jungers emerges  EXCLUSIVE by Graeme Culliford and Annette Witheridge 5/12/2009

Sex addict golfer had 18-month affair with golf fan's girlfriend and trawled Las Vegas clubs picking up blondes

http://www.eonline.com/

The woman purported to be Tiger Woods' fourth mistress has been identified as Las Vegas cocktail waitress Jamie Jungers.

"Oh yeah for sure," her mother, Sharon Jungers, told E! News exclusively when asked if the 26-year-old blonde had secretly dated the golf icon.

"Jamie is a good girl," she said, declining further comment.

Junger has reportedly dabbled in modeling and her Myspace page identifies herself as "Ms. March". The self-proclaimed calendar girl describes her current mood as "anxious."

We can imagine.

Tiger Woods' Mother & Mother-In-Law Remain At His EstateTiger Woods' Mother & Mother-In-Law Remain At His Estate

snip...


Both Tiger Woods’ mother and his mother-in-law have been spotted outside his Florida mansion while the golfing superstar remains holed-up inside with his wife Elin Nordegren, RadarOnline.com has learned. As stories of the golfer’s numerous extramarital affairs continue to captivate the public’s attention, the two moms are trying to help the couple heal their marriage.

Tiger’s Team Trying To Quiet Women With Big Money Offers

Kultilda Woods and Barbro Holmberg, who were inside the golfing superstar’s $2.6 million Florida home when he crashed his SUV into a fire hydrant and a tree on November 27, 2009, were seen on the estate’s grounds several times in the week that followed.

Tiger Mistress Jaimee Grubbs Took Nude Photos Of Herself

A neighbor at the up-market Windermere, FL estate told Radar Online.com: “Nobody has seen Tiger or his wife since the incident and we think that they are waiting inside until his wounds heal. The house is very quiet. We have seen his mom and his mother-in-law though and the two women seem to be going about their business as usual.

Cookie,

So much with being Cinderella....poor Elin...Porn Star that really takes the cake...TW is an ingrate to say the least.


"OK Magazine" is reporting snippets of what they claim is from the P.R.

snip...

Windermere police observed that the front passenger door of Tiger’s Cadillac SUV was jammed shut and there was $235 in cash stored in the vehicle, which was still running.

The report also confirms there was a golf cart at the scene and “two golf clubs (irons) lying on the ground” next to the cart.

T.W. has a golf tournament next month...I can't believe he wouldn't be practicing this very minute.

I didn't watch Geraldo Rivera last night so I don't know what he said about Tiger Wood.  However, Rivera is a serial cheater himself, so if I were he I wouldn't touch that subject with a ten foot pole.  Geraldo is so in love with his wife and the next thing you know, he's dumped her and  taken up with someone else.  I remember how he loved Ce Ce, I think she was a producer on his show.  Couple of kids and moved on to the present one--couple of kids, and he will soon move on.  I don't know how many wives he's had, but the number probably approaches Larry King. IMO the number of mistresses probably surpasses Tiger Wood.  Trash--all of them.

Geraldo would have big cahoonas  to say one thing about Tiger with his track record, agreed! I remember how he gushed over CeCe too! and then it was over...now he has a sweet young thing for a wife...Erica I think..see how long this one lasts...

I think that Elin is right to leave Tiger...he needs some serious help with his "problem"...he needs to be single and then he can be with as many women as he wants to be with...he is going to be paying out big bucks for his "transgressions"...hope it was worth bedding these women in losing his beautiful family..he will see his kids on a part time basis...such a shame that he didn't think of their little faces when he was messing with these women...
and while I am on the subject...why do women do this to other women? married men could not cheat on their wives if women did not cheat with them!  jmo

Seahorse...the picture of this porn star (?) looks like this girl that Tiger is talking to..imo
this is really so sad...

I don't know how Tiger or his wife can come out of this ok...it is so humiliating and damaging to them both...granted, I know that he behaved like a cad...this is all his fault and he deserves the chastising that he gets from his wife...But a part of me feels really sorry for him cause to have all of this made public has to be awful! I wouldn't want my life being played out in the media...In a way I think that this is a very private matter between him and his wife...we shouldn't even know all of this...I hope that men who are going to cheat on their wives will look back on this and take a step back ...the truth always comes out in the end...Women talk, especially women who are thinking that the cheater is eventually going to leave his wife for them.....and if the men are famous and wealthy...they see $$$$ and they usually get it...
I am wondering if all of these women coming out of the woodwork are really past "transgressions" or are they just wanting to be on the bandwagon?
Tiger is a serial cheater it seems and he needs to be single..but I am not so sure that he deserves all that is coming his way in a very public way...sigh....Why did  he do this????  sad for their whole family, including Tiger...

He seems to have the mind set of a single man.

Cookie,

I am trying to be cautious...There was ambulance called to TW house, a blonde woman was taken to the hospital,
also, another blond woman was following the ambulance...so was it her twin sister in the ambulance or her mother?

Who was taken and released from the hospital?  I am again trying to be careful who was taken to the hospital.

I could be simply breathing problems, since, they are from Sweden (the sister and mother), so it could be very something
to do more with the climate change?..I know fat chance:)  I want to throw that theory it could be nothing.

Seahorse....Yes, I am thinking that it could have been something as simple as an anxiety attack or something like exhaustion ....The mother has dark hair so it was not her on the gurney...I suspect that it was Elin and that her sister was following while mom stayed home with the kids?
also, Tiger pulled out of the wedding this weekend where he was supposed to be best man...probably a good thing..the wedding would have turned into a circus and would have been all about Tiger and not about the bride/groom...

My opinion it was the Sweden Mom, may have had breathing problems, she looks like a heavy smoker from photographs,
this is only my opinion, I used to smoke and I am well aware the jowl lines on a woman face.

Elin's mother Barbro Holmberg, a prominent Swedish politician, arrived at the Woods home a day or two ago.

The hospital is the same one Tiger was taken to on the fateful morning when he crashed his SUV.

The patient, said to be blonde and middle aged, arrived at hospital in a stretcher. A black Cadillac Escalade arrived at the hospital shortly after and a younger blonde woman jumped out and ran into the hospital. Forty-five minutes later, Tiger Woods reportedly went into the hospital

Report: Tiger Woods' Mother-In-Law Arrived In Central Fla. Monday

POSTED: 5:11 am EST December 8, 2009
UPDATED: 8:33 am EST December 8, 2009
WINDERMERE, Fla. -- Orange County firefighters responded to a medical call at the residence of Tiger Woods on Tuesday morning.
The call was received at 2:36 a.m.

A radio log showed an adult woman was transported to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee. The log also showed the patient initially refused transport, but was later listed as an advanced life support patient.

Several celebrity news Web sites reported that the mother of Tiger Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, had arrived in Central Florida on Monday. It is not known if she was the patient.

Video from the hospital showed a middle-aged woman being removed from an ambulance on a stretcher and taken through an emergency entrance.

Health Central is the same hospital where Woods was taken after his crash on Nov. 27.

A black Cadillac Escalade with Nordegren inside was seen leaving the hospital shortly after the ambulance arrived there.

also, Tiger pulled out of the wedding this weekend where he was supposed to be best man...probably a good thing..the wedding would have turned into a circus and would have been all about Tiger and not about the bride/groom...

also, TMZ reported this:  hope this link works...

http://www.tmz.com/2009/12/08/tiger-woods-hospital-overdose/

^^^^this was the night that he was taken to the hospital after the accident...

thank God his children are too young to see and know what all is going on right now with their parents..poor little mites..

Thank-you kindly for the link, also think the British taloids are very good, they are a day ahead of our Tab's.
The mom's photos: one she is blonde and another she is brunette, the mom is a politician, so she is both.

The kids are sooo cute and they crazy about their Dad...

I wonder about TW..OD that TMZ had reported... is that why the blood test results were refused? Hymm...

Cookie, the press is probably all over the Wedding Chapel, even though, he isn't Best Man any longer.
When Elin's mom found out about the xxx woman that may what took her breath away. I would just love to have a house tour.

Monkeys, will you please, straighten me out about all these houses?

Today's call was from the "Isleworth Mansion", is this the same house as the last time's emergency?  Thank-you.

I know the above link states the house is for sale, may be an old information.

This 911 incident with I'm assuming Tiger's MIL may be the straw that broke the camels back.  How much more bad publicity will Tiger's sponsors take before at least taking a step back?

I heard on the news today that Elin had recently, within the last few days purchased another home..she was reported to have signed papers at the closing...
Also I had heard that they were living in separate homes...and that they have or she was going to purchase a home in Sweden...
all kinds of stuff going around...hard to tell what is fact..

I really don't think that Elin will stay with Tiger...She is too young and has too much going for her to remain in a marriage with a man who will probably cheat on her again...imo...

JMO - this whole thing is so terribly sad for all concerned. What is the purpose of all these women now coming about about their alleged affairs with Tiger?  Looking for their payoff and their 15 minutes would be my thinking. I feel terrible for all both families, Elin and Tiger.....others around him knew and abetted him, instead of being a friend to him.....were they to blame...NO...but did they contribute....yes. And the media are like rabid animals.....a marriage looks to be completely broken, children will be reared without one parent, families are being torn apart............so, so sad IMO.

Agreed! to have all of your dirty laundry aired in the media non stop would be horrible! all of these women that Tiger messed around with...He has seen how the women that he picked to spend his time with over his lovely loyal wife and kids care about him now hasn't he? what a total train wreck! they are all lining up now for the $$$...they didn't care about him, it was all about the money and the prestige of saying that they bedded Tiger Woods..! imo....what I can't figure out is why we didn't hear anything about all of this before now...He must have been slipping them money among other things...ahummm ::MonkeyMad:: to keep them quite...they probably thought that they were the only one, then when they found out how many others...well, hell has no fury...and all of that...

He has made statements regarding letting his family down.  I think it is a bit more than that.  There was a signed donated photo of him that he donated to a charity in this area.  It was valued at 1200-1500.  It auctioned at the charity this week for $300.

How many other charities has this man let down around the nation.  Many of this organizations were hoping to use those funds to pay for food to those in need.  This one as I remember was going to go to buy christmas presents for children in a domestic abuse shelter.

Shame of Tiger Woods.....!!!!!!!!

cookie, I too am surprise this hasn't been out in the media before...he obviously wasn't being discreet about his womanizing and partying.  MY DH says this is another example of a young man getting star status and oodles of money way too young....he had it all at a young age and then what's left....the dark side I guess. Of course none of us know what went on behind closed doors...but if either wanted out of the marriage this was not the way for it to happen..this way hurts so many innocent people .JMO

US Weekly is reporting that Elin must have suspected something 3 months ago as that is when she bought the house in Sweden in her name only...also in their next publication, emails from Tiger and I think Jamie Grubb...the one who had the voice mail that he was asking her to take her name off of her voice message...

these women had to have known that there would be a day that the chit would hit the fan and that is why they saved emails, and voice mails etc...they saved  it for insurance so that they would be getting some coin once they got dumped.. ::MonkeyNoNo::

Yes, daddy, is still alive, I understand from prior reports Elin is reportly not speaking to him, if to believed.
Elin's parents divorced when she was six years old according to Huffington Post.

Holmberg divorced from her husband, Thomas Nordegren, when Elin Nordegren was six years old. A Social Democrat in Sweden, multiple reports refer to her as a "prominent politician." She may be the same Barbro Holmberg...

I am wondering if Tiger is really on the yacht...I personally think that he is at a rehab or mental help facility .....he is going to need some professional help in my opinion to deal with all of this..he will more than likely be deeply depressed and ashamed and humiliated...hey, sortof how Elin must feel right???
but anyways, the mere fact that he has not been seen or heard from makes me believe that he is not anywhere that the public could get to him...ALL just my opinion...I have no facts or links to back it up...
I don't think that anyone could just be holed up in a home this long without some sort of activity..even just walking to the back yard, know what I mean...? Has the yacht sailed or is it sitting in the dock somewhere? if it has sailed, then perhaps he could be on it...otherwise, I am thinking no...

I think that he needs to be with professionals otherwise, I am afraid that he may try to harm himself...jmo..and none of us would want that to happen..I can't begin to imagine the trauma that this whole family is going through...a rather high price to pay for 'transgressions' Tiger...sigh.....

Thank-you for the link to US Weekly magazine. How does Elin feel?  Well not good, she just had her baby in February?
Elin must be in shock with his E-mails & text messages that are being exposed and if photos emerge of Tiger is in his birthday suit, that might be laughable:)

You are a good thinker, Cookie, I doubt,too, he is hiding out on his boat, unless, he has a friend with him? It is private property, but, the Press is hiding in the water behind his house, too, his neighbors are reporting.  Don't know where he is...
with his Mom, perhaps?  NG didn't say if the boat was moored or not, she doesn't do her homework..she just spouts.

I would think that would be his comfort zone with his Mom.  If there are photos, it could get more murky.

You are welcome with info on Elin's parent's. Do you think he would mistreat Elin if he thought her father would pop him one?
We don't want anything bad to happen to him or anyone, things are not looking any better thats for sure.

Tiger Woods's lust 'fuelled by drugs'

Article from: The Courier-Mail

Willoughby Mariano, Anika Palm and agencies

December 10, 2009 12:00am

THE growing list of Tiger Woods' mistresses could be overshadowed by an even sadder scandal - one of the world's great athletes may have been battling a fascination with drugs for years.

As new dramas engulfed Woods and his family yesterday, more evidence emerged that at least some of his extra-marital adventures with a series of nightclub hostesses and porn stars were fuelled by more than lust.

The drug Ambien has now been named by more than one of the women as being a key part of their liaisons with Woods.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Tiger's sex kittens
        * Gallery: Famous femmes fatale
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 
        * Overdose report: Tiger's in the rough

Ambien, a sedative, also produces strange side-effects in some people and is lauded as an underground aphrodisiac. In Australia the drug is marketed as Stilnox, a sleeping pill linked to several cases of sleepwalking, sleep-driving and post-sleep amnesia.

Rachel Uchitel, the first of Woods' mistresses to be revealed, has already been reported as boasting of his sexual performance while taking Ambien. Yesterday, several news websites named at least two of his so-far anonymous mistresses as enthusiastic users of the drug.

Ambien was one of two drugs wife Elin Nordergren handed to paramedics after Woods' car accident of the week before last which eventually led to the revelations of his philandering. The second drug was Vicodin, a pain killer. Combining the two, particularly with alcohol, produces an artificial high.

In other developments:

• Porn star Joslyn James, real name Veronica Siwik-Daniels, became the 11th woman outed as a Woods' lover.

• His Swedish politician mother-in-law Barbro Holmberg, 57, returned home after being rushed to hospital in the middle of the night.

• Sports drink Gatorade dumped its line of Tiger-branded drinks, and several of his TV advertisements were taken off US screens.

Two of the women involved with Woods – Uchitel and cocktail waitress Jamie Grubbs – have been revealed as serial partners of famous men.

Uchitel, who lost her fiancee in the attacks on New York of September 11, 2001, has been linked to at least five American celebrity sportsmen and Grubbs apparently partied with Australian rules football star Gary Ablett Jr just weeks ago.

A representative of Ablett's management yesterday confirmed the chance Las Vegas meeting at the Tao nightclub.

"Gary said he might have met her at a Halloween party with a group of people," he said. "I think the name might have twigged his memory because it is a bit of an unusual name, Grubbs. That's what he remembered."

He said Ablett also recalled her white nurse's outfit. "Everyone was dressed-up. It was in a club," he said.

Meanwhile, in Florida, the Woods household remained divided.

His wife Elin, her twin sister Josefin and their mother, Ms Holmberg, are holed up in a house on the exclusive gated estate where Woods remains in the main family home.

Ms Holmberg, the governor of a Swedish province, is understood to be involved in the negotiations between Woods and his wife over their future.

She was taken to hospital after a 2.35am emergency phone call but was soon released. Unconfirmed reports suggested an asthma attack.

"Oh, hurry up, my mum just collapsed," a female caller begged a dispatcher, according to a recording released by authorities. "She collapsed in the bathroom. What do I do?" she said later. A baby could be heard crying in the background.

Tiger Woods and wife Elin 'leaving the country'

Article from: NewsCore

December 10, 2009 12:53am

TIGER Woods and his wife Elin Nordegren have avoided contact with the public by hiding out in their family home in a Florida gated community since news of Woods' alleged affairs broke two weeks ago.

Now a source close to Nordegren's family tells Fox News that the two are considering putting even more distance between themselves and Tiger's cheating scandal.

The insider says the couple is planning to leave the United States “very soon”.

“Elin and Tiger are planning to temporarily move closer to Sweden, possibly to a private island, to get away from it all,” the insider said.

Meanwhile several news agencies are reporting that Nordegren may have bought a $2.29 million house on an island near Stockholm last week by herself.

Swedish news agency HPG,reported that she bought the house with her twin sister, Josefin, not with Tiger.

The news comes after Elin’s mother Barbro Holmberg, visiting from Sweden to assist her daughter, was rushed to Florida’s Health Central hospital yesterday morning after suffering stomach pains.

She was released later in the day and reportedly returned to her daughter's house.

Despite the number of women coming forward to claim affairs with Woods, Nordegren’s family is hoping that the high-profile couple will somehow work through the scandal, the insider said.

“Elin’s family couldn’t be more devastated,” the source said. “But they want Tiger and Elin together for the kids’ sake.”

The family's efforts to keep it together come as more news on Tiger Woods' alleged promiscuous behaviour comes to light.

A source said Woods was at New York’s club The Griffin numerous times during the summer of 2009, where he met up with his first outed alleged mistress, Rachel Uchitel, who worked at the club as a VIP hostess.

“He was always very flirty as he partied, and kept coming back,” a club insider said.

"A few people started to think it was suspicious that Elin was never there.”

Can they print those pictures without his consent if they are indeed him in the nude???
How far is too far for the media and reporters etc to go in getting a story and helping to ruin  a person's life? I think that it would be really out of line to print any nude photos of anyone without their consent...jmo...not fair to a female to have that happen to them and it is not fair to a male either imo...
Tiger was an idiot for more than one reason, but if he does have nude photos out there that he allowed someone to take of him, then he is dumber than anyone knew....
But, this man has a family and I think that the most decent thing to do is to not print any nude pictures of him so that his family would be seeing .....that is not right...imo....going too far....

You are classy...the pictures shouldn't be printed or tapes?...he has a big Rump and he wouldn't be private any longer.
He is linked to another xxx chick, I didn't want to lift the information because it is disgusting. I hope he learned his
lesson. I hope the family does leave and clears up their marriage, so he can teach his children how to golf.

one of Tiger's loves is saying that she did not know that Tiger was married...did this woman live in a cave? usually when someone starts dating someone, they want to know everything about him right? and with Tiger Woods, wouldn't she google him at the very least? she sounded very fake to me...she is the one who is releasing the voice mail and the emails...She knew after a while that he was married cause she was not happy when the 2nd child was born, so she said...did she really think that Tiger was not having relations with his beautiful wife?

another thought that I had, since Tiger was injured in his mouth, I am wondering if he has some front teeth knocked out and  that is why he is staying out of public till he gets his teeth fixed? just a thought...would think that injured and bruised lips would be gone by now....of course there is always the possibility that he just doesnt want to face the public or that he really is in rehab...The celebs usually go into rehab after they do something wrong....he is probably claiming to be a sex addict or something ...

The Cave people would have known Tiger was married, she should have known too.

Yes, reports are that the wife threw the cell phone at him and broke a tooth.

Cookie, is Tiger in S.C. hiding out at the Church? :) 

He isn't going to miss his childhood friends wedding, I wouldn't, and he won't either, is only my opinion.

If the Chapel or Church has al ot of security than I would guess he is still Best Man, only at guess.

The press must know where the receptio from the invitation, unless, it plans were altered.

Tiger Woods faces sex tape, lovechild rumours

Article from: The Courier-Mail

December 11, 2009 12:00am

A LOVECHILD and a sex tape - the latest claim about golfing giant Tiger Woods is that these are at least two more revelations he needs to fear.

As "friends" of his wife Elin Nordegren supposedly told the US media that she planned to stay with him for the sake of their children, the National Enquirer was reported to be about to reveal the existence of at least one child fathered by Woods outside his marriage.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Tiger's sex kittens
        * Gallery: Famous femmes fatale
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 

And several blogs, including the Huffington Post, began to estimate the value of rumoured sex tapes starring the golf legend at $5 million.

Woods has now been linked to at least 11 women outside his marriage, two of whom have spoken of his enthusiasm for wild sex while high on the prescription drug Ambien.

But the American edition of People magazine has quoted Nordegren's "friends" saying she is devastated by Woods' alleged infidelities but plans to stay married.

The couple, who wed in 2004, have a daughter Sam, 2, and son Charlie, 10 months.

"She is a child of divorce and that's not something she's likely to want to do to Sam and Charlie," an unnamed friend told People.

The friends say Woods, 33, has finally come clean and told Elin, a former nanny, the full extent of his alleged womanising.

The friends say Elin heard whispers about Woods' active sex life before they married but he promised to reform and she believed him.

They said the couple had been having problems for two years and had several public rows in Stockholm, where they own an apartment.

Their marital woes exploded into headlines two weeks ago when Elin, whose Swedish parents divorced when she was six, chased Woods from their Orlando home and allegedly attacked his car with a golf club.

Since then, the scandal has erupted and has placed the golfer's lucrative sponsorship deals in doubt.

Woods is sport's first billionaire. He gets an estimated 90 per cent of his income from endorsements.

Media research company Nielsen says the last prime-time commercial in the US featuring Woods, a 30-second spot for Gillette, aired on November 29, two days after he crashed his car.

Racy texts were also published yesterday that appear to show Woods flirting with 24-year-old cocktail waitress Jaimie Grubbs.

And it was claimed Woods has avoided the public gaze because his wife broke one of his teeth in their row before the crash.

Star magazine in the US reported that Elin threw a mobile phone at him after she caught him texting club promoter Rachel Uchitel.

Meanwhile, porn star Holly Sampson has talked on an adult website called Naughty America about having a fling with Woods.

She claimed she was invited to a stag night for Woods because a friend knew one of his assistants.

"Me and my girlfriends, we did a bachelor party for Tiger and it was amazing," she said.

In an interview at a kitchen table – wearing a red dress with her breasts exposed – the star of films like Diary of a Horny Housewife added: "He picked me to go in the room and have some whatever. I have to say, he was really good.

"His teeth are perfect and he is the perfect gentleman. He has beautiful everything, beautiful."

When told she looked like Woods' wife Elin, Sampson, 36, said: "I know. I think he likes blondes, obviously."

Although she boasted about her relationship with Woods nearly seven months ago, the tape didn't surface until yesterday.

Meanwhile, two other women at the centre of the allegations spoke yesterday about their roles in the drama of Woods' private life.

Ms Uchitel told OK! magazine in an interview about to hit news stands that she had been demonised.

"In every story you need a villain and a hero," she said. "I've been characterised as a villain. People have called me homewrecker, gold digger, tramp, whore.

"I made mistakes, but I'm not those things. I have good qualities."

Ms Grubbs apologised to the golfer's wife, saying: "I couldn't describe how remorseful that I am to have hurt her family and her emotionally." But she defended herself by adding: "If it wasn't me, it was going to be the other girls."

Elin stands by cheating Tiger Woods for sake of kids

Article from: The Daily Telegraph

By Annette Witheridge and David Gardner

December 10, 2009 11:33pm

THE wife of Tiger Woods will stick with her cheating husband for the sake of their two young children.

Friends of Elin Nordegren, 29, said she was devastated and heartbroken by the extent of his alleged infidelities but plans to stay married.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Tiger's sex kittens
        * Gallery: Famous femmes fatale
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 

The couple, who wed in 2004, have a daughter Sam, 2, and son Charlie, 10 months.

"She is a child of divorce and that's not something she's likely going to want to do to Sam and Charlie," an unnamed friend told US magazine People.

"She really believes in the importance of parents staying together."

The friend said Tiger Woods, 33, had finally come clean and told Elin, a former nanny, the full extent of his alleged womanising.

They are believed to be in negotiations to alter their prenuptial agreement, which could allow her to walk away with $US55 million if she remains married for another two years.

So far, 11 women have claimed affairs with the golfer and other revelations, including a fling with a British TV presenter, are expected.

TMZ reports that the first woman exposed as an alleged mistress, Rachel Uchitel, will undergo tests for sexually transmitted diseases after Woods admitted having unprotected sex.

The friend said Elin heard whispers about Woods's active sex life before they married - but he promised to reform.

"Elin had talked to other golfers and their wives about Tiger's wild parties. When she asked Tiger about it, he said he would stop doing it. And she believed him. But he never did," one friend said.

Friends said they had been having problems for two years and have had public arguments in Stockholm, where they own an apartment.

Their marital woes exploded into headlines two weeks ago when Elin, whose Swedish parents divorced when she was six, chased Woods from their Orlando home and allegedly attacked his car with a golf club.

He crashed into a fire hydrant and a tree.

Since then, the scandal has erupted and placed the billionaire golfer's lucrative sponsorship deals in doubt - he gets an estimated 90 per cent of his income from endorsements.

The 15 TV advertisements now featuring him have vanished.

Public relations guru Howard Rubenstein sees little hope, saying: "He is beyond PR redemption."

Racy texts have now emerged, appearing to show Woods flirting with 24-year-old cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs. Then there is the alleged email exchange between alleged mistress Rachel Uchitel and Woods.

"I know it's brutal on you that you can't be with me all the time," the golfer texted her, said In Touch magazine. "I finally found someone I connect with."

Porn star Holly Sampson, 26, added her own touch with a video clip, recorded in May, boasting how she and Woods met at a party and became bedmates. "He picked me to go into the room," she said.

Ashley Samson, the source for the National Enquirer's story on Uchitel, said Woods' management offered her $200,000 to shut up. "I turned them down flat, saying I would not lie for Tiger because the truth is the truth," she said.

Woods has laid low since the storm erupted but it is now claimed the reason is because Elin broke his tooth in their row before the crash.

Star magazine in the US reported that Elin threw a mobile phone at him after she caught him texting Uchitel.

Tibrogargan,

Thanks for the update...I believe it is a "phone sex tape" that the Tabloids are trying to be authenicate.
I did read there may be possible "birthday suit" photos, of him Playgirl is looking into to verify it is him. 
There are 6,000 articles on Tiger Woods on Google. Why is this story are interesting? 
We really don't want to know his frisky ways, it must be because is so private?

Tiger Woods learns high cost of lying lowPR experts question wisdom of hiding away as sponsors' ads vanish from TV screens
Buzz up!

Lawrence Donegan guardian.co.uk, Thursday 10 December 2009 21.06 GMT Article history

Snipped...

 http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2009/dec/10/tiger-woods-learns-lying-low

From $100m man to nowhere man – the symbolism was hardly helpful. Nor was the news that not one sponsor's advert featuring Woods had appeared on US television since 29 November, two days after the crash, or that his reputation with consumers has taken a hit. According to the Davie-Brown Index, which tracks the US public's opinion of celebrities, he has fallen from sixth on the list of celebrity endorsers to 24th. "He was Teflon until a week ago, and some of that Teflon has worn off," said Hollywood publicist Howard Bragman.

snipped..


What the deals are worth

Accenture $10m-$15m

Financial arrangements have never been disclosed of the deal with the management consultancy which sold Woods as: "the world's ultimate symbol of high performance".


EA Sports $8m-$10m

A six-year deal was signed in 2006 but financial details were never made public.


PepsiCo $100m for five years

Days after the crash Pepsi dropped its Gatorade Tiger Focus drink, but insists the decision was taken earlier in the year.


Tag Heuer $10m

Woods appeared in the company's "What are you made of …" campaign with the disgraced athlete Marion Jones.

Nike $105m for five years

Woods takes a cut of all Nike golf equipment sold to make up for jumping ship from Titleist balls with whom he had a $20m five-year deal.


AT&T $7m a year

The telecommunications firm stepped in to slap their name on Tiger's bag as soon as General Motors, through its Buick brand, ended its $40m association earlier this year.


Gillette $10m-$20m

One of three athletes put together to sell razors, the other two being Thierry Henry and Roger Federer.

Golfers say they weren't interviewed about Woods

December 10, 2009
By DOUG FERGUSON (AP) – 3 hours ago

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Two golfers quoted by a weekly magazine as making disparaging remarks about Tiger Woods and his marriage said Thursday night they never spoke to the publication.

In a story that Life & Style posted on its Web site, Ben Crane is quoted as saying Woods is a "phony and a fake" and that Woods' wife knew about allegations of extramarital affairs. It also quotes Charles Warren as saying Woods' wife "had stars in her eyes and maybe dollar signs too" and should leave him.

The magazine said in a statement it was investigating.

"This is unbelievable," Ben Crane told The Associated Press from his Dallas-area home. "I never said a word about anything. They print this and put my name next to it."

Warren said through his agent that he has not given an interview of any kind in two months.

"I have not spoken to Life & Style magazine, so there is no story here," Warren said in a statement.

Crane's agent, Tommy Limbaugh of 4UManagement, said a magazine official told him the interview took place at the PGA Tour Qualifying tournament last week at Bear Lakes Country Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.

Crane finished 51st on the PGA Tour money list this year and was not at Q-school. Warren, who finished 147th on the money list, withdrew from Q-school before the final round. He was too far back to earn his card.

"We sent an experienced freelance reporter to a golf tournament attended by several PGA pros," the magazine said in a statement. "Our reporter spoke with two golfers who presented themselves as Ben Crane and Charles Warren. We are taking these claims very seriously and investigating further."

Asked if the magazine took photos of the golfers it interviewed, a spokeswoman declined further comment. Life & Style published the quotes Wednesday afternoon, and several Web sites posted them Thursday.

Crane said he first learned about the quotes Thursday morning when his agent called.

"At that point, I was like, 'OK, that's the farthest thing from the truth,'" Crane said. "I didn't realize I should be proactively calling you and (other journalists) until all of a sudden the tour called and said they wanted to run it (on television)."

does anyone else think that it is time for the public and the news medias to back off of this story now and to let Tiger and his family do what they need to do to heal and to work on their family? I do...enough is enough...imo...we know by now that TW is a cad..he did wrong...many times over from the sounds of things...but what is going to be enough punishment for this man ? I don't know....it is just leaving a sad feeling for him and his family now for me...before I felt mostly sorry for Elin and the children...then I felt sorry for all of them, still do...What will make the public and the press happy? if he is stoned in Times Square ? He will probably end up losing a lot of his sponsors...more punishment..he will more than likely lose his family, even if they try to work it out, it won't work, imo....he has lost the respect of just about everyone...and all of it he brought on himself. I just think that the press should leave him and his family alone...It is almost Christmas..I hope that he and his family will get some peace in the coming weeks...
The whole story is just beyond sad....

Yes, time-out, you have a good point, it is Christmas season and good things are to come.  TW case is getting slimey, I don't like
where it is going, especially, GMA interview with his GF. I did not see the interview only, because, I could not believe it would take place on a family morning show!

 I am going to back-off of this story.  I would like to see Wedding photos of his friend, something more amusing. I did see a funny video of TW not youtube...I excercised better judgement and didn't post it...enough is enough..Muffy Bee posted an article and stated that the, Golfers, weren't enterviewed, so now the press is fabricating more tales..enough!

Seahorse...I guess after seeing that Jamie G. on the interview, I just had a sick feeling in my stomach... She was all about her...she was hurt...she was this, she was that...it was all so fake feeling! this woman participated in a 32 (?) month "relationship" where she felt that she was the only woman in his life....Yet they were intimate about 20 times.....ok...do the math....and she didn't know that he was married at first, but yet she saved all of the voice mails (perhaps) and certainly a bunch of text messages and emails...which she is producing from what I understand...This is her way of closure...she even apologized to Elin! she has some nerve! if she really didn't want her 15 minutes of fame, she could have remained silent and not went to the media..From what I understand, she went to the magazine herself, no one even knew about her! that is the kind of stuff that I am speaking of..that and the untrue stuff that is being said about Tiger and his family,,...The media will go after anything and anyone and they are relentless..

I certainly have enjoyed reading and enjoying the articles on this train wreck, will be the first one to say so, but it is just getting raunchy to me now...Do we the public really need to see all of these personal text and email messages? I don't think so...although it is certainly entertaining, it is also very very destructive to a young mother and her children who don't deserve any of this...I think that the tide is going to turn more towards how we are feeling now...we heard it, we shook our head in shock, we had our say, and still will on here for sure as it is news...however, my thoughts are just to leave them alone....Tiger needs to come forth and do like David Letterman did...yeah, I really messed up, I am an a$$ and I have my work cut out for me to heal myself and my family...blah blah blah...
only then will the media leave him and his family alone imo...No one really delved that far into the Letterman affairs and I believe it is because he took the bull by the horn and came out with it all...jmo..
of course, from what we hear, Tiger may have to let his face and teeth heal first before he comes out publicly..By him being silent, every one under a rock is going to keep coming out and saying that they were lovers and by him not talking, they will continue and there isn't much that he can do about it from what the lawyers on NG show were saying last night...

What do you think?

She was all about her...she was hurt...she was this, she was that...it was all so fake feeling! this woman participated in a 32 (?) month "relationship" where she felt that she was the only woman in his life....Yet they were intimate about 20 times.....ok...do the math....and she didn't know that he was married at first, but yet she saved all of the voice mails (perhaps) and certainly a bunch of text messages and emails...which she is producing from what I understand...This is her way of closure...she even apologized to Elin! she has some nerve! if she really didn't want her 15 minutes of fame, she could have remained silent and not went to the media..From what I understand, she went to the magazine herself, no one even knew about her! that is the kind of stuff that I am speaking of..that and the untrue stuff that is being said about Tiger and his family,,...The media will go after anything and anyone and they are relentless..

I certainly have enjoyed reading and enjoying the articles on this train wreck, will be the first one to say so, but it is just getting raunchy to me now...Do we the public really need to see all of these personal text and email messages? I don't think so...although it is certainly entertaining, it is also very very destructive to a young mother and her children who don't deserve any of this...I think that the tide is going to turn more towards how we are feeling now...we heard it, we shook our head in shock, we had our say, and still will on here for sure as it is news...however, my thoughts are just to leave them alone....Tiger needs to come forth and do like David Letterman did...yeah, I really messed up, I am an a$$ and I have my work cut out for me to heal myself and my family...blah blah blah...
only then will the media leave him and his family alone imo...No one really delved that far into the Letterman affairs and I believe it is because he took the bull by the horn and came out with it all...jmo..
of course, from what we hear, Tiger may have to let his face and teeth heal first before he comes out publicly..By him being silent, every one under a rock is going to keep coming out and saying that they were lovers and by him not talking, they will continue and there isn't much that he can do about it from what the lawyers on NG show were saying last night...

What do you think?

Nope we need to know anymore: e-mails, sex tapes, sex recordings, GF's, secrets, or 60,000 he spent on Call girls.

This was an interesting story Cookie,as you said enough is enough. 

I agree full heartly with you, these girls give me an upset stomach, too, I would never borrow a cup of sugar of any of them.

(LOL) about his face and teeth healing, also, his soul, also, needs healing..he needs to see the Dalai Lama, head of his religion.

This isn't going away because it is salacious, we were curious, and now we aren't.

I agree,TW, should confess and admit to his boo-boo's, maybe this stench will clear. 

I hope Elin stays for eighteen years or leaves now, she isn't doing the children any good staying a few years..

Tiger needs to get his Feet back on the golf course and switch on the subject back to golf,and practice on the coarse.

Cookie, it is the mystery that is fueling this scandal as well as the 13? GF's...rough looking females..good grief.

liked your post by the way...

I was listening to the radio this morning and Joy Behar's show last night had Marlo Thomas on the air..she was saying that people should focus on the good that Tiger Woods has done ...He has contributed a lot of money to St. Jude's children's hospital which is one of my favorite charities...Marlo, whose father founded St. Jude's if I am correct on that...said that Tiger had the library built there as well as another generous contribution to build another facility within St. Judes...can't remember the exact wording on it now...But it sounds as if Tiger has been very generous through the years with St. Judes and with some other Children's charities.....

Thank-you for informing me on his charity work, that is refreshing. Cookie, does anyone know about this thread?  I read two other posters, besides you and I. Thank-you for compliment on my post, you bought out the common sense in me...this is just a story about power and money...he needs to get back to the golf course with teeth or without teeth:)

Tiger Breaks from Golf, Admits 'Infidelity'


Posted Dec 11th 2009 6:48PM by TMZ Staff

Tiger Woods has just announced he'll be taking a hiatus from golf.

Woods just released the following statement on his website:

"I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children. I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I've done, but I want to do my best to try.

I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding. What's most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing.

After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person.

Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period."

I don't think he will ever change.  The only reason he is taking time off is to fix his reputation and he is trying to show his sponsors he is doing the right thing.  He doesn't want to lose all his endorsements.

He will be back in a year and saying everything is great.

His Thanksgiving was ruined. Christmas too?


Twas the night before Christmas and throughout Tiger's house
All his cell phones were ringing, or so noticed his spouse.
Messages poured in, seemingly without care,
As mistress after mistress left voicemails, unaware.

Then all of a sudden there arose such a clatter
That the neighbors awoke to see just what was the matter
And in the front yard just what did they see?
But a Cadillac Escalade, smashed against a tree.

In the front sat Tiger, in the back were five chicks,
He jumped out shouting, he was quicker than quick.
Then out of the truck his mistresses came,
He whistled and waved and called them by name:

"Now Jaimie, now Joslyn, now Rachel you vixen!
And Mindy, and Cori, put down that martina you're mixing!
To the top of the fence! To the top of the wall
Here comes my wife, dash away all!

And his wife came around with a 9-iron swinging
There was glass shattering chaos as the club came a-winging
And we heard Tiger screaming as he ran out of sight,
"You ruined my Christmas!! I hope you have a good night!!"

Nike to Tiger: We'll Await Your Return

Posted Dec 11th 2009 9:18PM by TMZ Staff

Nike has a clear message for Tiger Woods -- hurry back.

Just hours after Tiger announced his indefinite break from golf, his biggest sponsor was already talking about his triumphant return.

TMZ spoke with a rep for Nike, who told us, "Tiger has been part of Nike for more than a decade. He is the best golfer in the world and one of the greatest athletes of his era. We look forward to his return to golf. He and his family have Nike's full support."

Goodmorning,

The (British) Sun, tabloid, article on "alleged" orgies...geez...is that why he fled?..if photo's surface that would be nasty.
He has been golfing since he was three years old, that would be self destructive to separate himself from the sport,
but if the orgies, (if true), could be more destructive. I linked to Drudgereport...at the bottom of his page is a list of UK tabs.

They "Orgy Organizer" needs to keep a log in case anyone has Bugs.  ::MonkeyCool::

The photos if any are for business use? 

The photos would be kept secret, because of business and money.

The O.O. may have access to the photo archivies, (if any exist) this more curious than the fender bender.

Why else would his Attorney's, get a court order to ban the UK from publishing photos?  This is becoming clearer.

Did they take the four dogs on the so-called boat trip?  Did they take the Babies?  This is a screwy gang..what if

the Baby came down with the Flu? Do they have a baby doctor available on the boat?

Cookie, must have some truth to this article or the Lawyers wouldn't be so strict on the U.K. IMO

Official: Tiger Woods' Wife Bought House in Sweden

Saturday , December 12, 2009

AP
ADVERTISEMENT

STOCKHOLM —
A Swedish housing official has confirmed that Tiger Woods' wife bought a house on an island off Stockholm.

Stenake Johansson, the chairman of the Faglaro Residential Association, said Saturday that Elin Nordegren became the owner of a six-bedroom house on Dec. 1 on Faglaro. The island is only reachable by boat.

He says negotiations likely started shortly after the house was put on the market in August — well before the recent reports about Woods' alleged extramarital affairs.

Johansson could not confirm the mansion's reported price of $2.2 million. He said he didn't know whether Nordegren and Woods plan to move in.

On Friday, Woods said he was taking an indefinite leave from golf to try to save his marriage, the biggest fallout yet from two shocking weeks filled with allegations of rampant extramarital affairs.

"I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person," Woods said Friday on his Web site.

Woods and his wife, Elin, have been married five years and have a 2-year-old daughter and a 10-month-old son.

The announcement came two weeks after Woods crashed his sport utility vehicle into a tree outside his Florida home, setting in motion a stunning downfall for the world's No. 1 player who for 13 years rarely made news off the golf course. One woman who said she had a 31-month affair with Woods shared a voice mail that she said Woods left her two nights before his Nov. 27 accident.

I heard on one of the talking heads programs that this order would include "super imposing" Tiger's face onto someone else's body...photoshopping I suppose that is what it would be called?
dunno...
Maybe Tiger and his family are going to move to that home in Sweden that Elin recently purchased..away from prying eyes? a place for peace and reconciliation? I personally don't hold out much hope of this marriage working..too much damage has been done...imo...they may try it for awhile, but ....

It took one person to make the house of cards fall.  People saw all the publicity and money that Tigers representatives were throwing around to keep them quiet and they said hey I want some of that too.

They never thought he would be paying all these people off to keep quiet.

This exploded because of how it happened.  His wife hitting him with a golf club made it bigger.

seahorse I don't know who is in that SUV.  The only thing I will say is that he needs therapy.  Running away to another country isn't going to help him unless he also seeks therapy.  The latest statement released about his family needing privacy is a well orchestrated statement by his team.

He needs to separate himself from these people callings the shots and listen to his family.  Those people are only interested in one thing and that one thing is money.  The money will always be there for him because he has a natural ability to be the greatest at a sport he loves.

Seek treatment and that will help him understand the hurt he has done to many.

I don't see this marriage lasting.  JMO.

My view he is a spoiled brat and nothing will fix him. He has been King of golf,since, he was Three years old, he thinks he
is King, of what, don't know.  I don't think they are together, the press is being snorkered, Elin, will not put her two babies on
a ship and cruise without a nurse, children doctors, the woman is pretty and also wise, maybe,not wise:(

I don't think that either of them are on that yacht if that is what is being reported...
what would she do with her mom and sister then? I still say that Tiger could be in a rehab somewhere..can his face be that messed up that he won't/can't appear in public?
He wouldn't be able to just hunker down in his house for 2 weeks without anyone seeing him, no one being seen coming to the house, like lawyers or his publicist etc...what about Elin's mom and sister? surely they would go out shopping or do something just to get out of the house...no one spotted, no pictures of that anyways....so, where is everyone?

Cookie,


Good questions are better than good answers. I found the link below very informative and impressive on Tiger.

He is a stink bomb,but, to understand how he became one is interesting.

Nah, no one's on that ship except the Rats.  Elin did buy a house on an Island (December 1), the house "can only be reached

by boat" sounds she bought it for him. I would need access to a park for the kids, ice cream store, etc., wouldn't you?

He won't go to Therapy, he is too private. Elin's mother has a job in Sweden, she needs to return sooner or later.

When you find the Tiger Mom, you will find him, jmo.  Would you put your precious babies on a ship and sail? 

I wouldn't, unless, it was the last resort, then, maybe.

A photo of the Island, (claimed) Elin bought a house.  I hope she finds peace for her and the kids.
He will need to face himself in the mirror and that is punishment enough.

Do you think the Tiger mom is going to the Island, too?

I don't know if therapy will help him but he needs to try.  If he is serious in what he is saying then be like Nike "Just do it".

As far as him being on that ship I doubt it.  At this point in time with what happened I would never travel with my kids on that ship with him.  I would want private security, crew and family to accompany me.

I think someone is helping him hide out while this slows down and whatever physical wounds he received have healed somewhat.

I think Nike has put a lot of pressure on him.  They told him we won't drop you if you abide by our rules not yours.  If not you're gone.

I had read somewhere that Tiger's mom and Elin did not always see eye to eye...TG's mom seems like she is demanding to me...over protective ? dunno...I don't see his mom moving there with them..but who knows...

 Cookie,

I don't believe they are moving there because it is spookie- ooking.  Tiger would buy the whole island and not one

stinkin' house. Elin bought the house with her Twin sister, according, to reports. The Tiger mom may be beastly:)

E.W. isn't relocate those babies, that is just far fetched, no mom would just pull up the children from a mild climate

and plop the kids in a deserted island with frigid weather, what if the kids were sick?  Is there a hospital near by?

Tiger Woods missed daughter's baptism


The golfer Tiger Woods has missed the baptism in Sweden of his three-month-old daughter, Sam, according to Swedish media reports.

Woods is married to the Swedish model Elin Nordegren, whose family turned out in force for the christening ceremony in Stockholm yesterday. But one source close to the family said: "“Everybody was very surprised over the fact that Tiger did not show up.”

Quite why Woods missed the event is not clear and a spokeswoman for the golfer declined to comment. The Associated Press ran pictures early on Sunday morning, European time, of Woods attending a charity event in California.

Gillette drops Tiger Woods as a spokesman.
December 13, 12:58 PMBaltimore TV ExaminerMark Scapino


Gillette announced on Saturday that they are pulling themselves away from Tiger Woods.
After Woods has decided to step down from golf for an indefinite amount of time, other companies are considering removing Woods from their advertisements, including AT&T.

Woods has spent 13 years as an advertising king.  He is the first sports star to earn $1 billion.

Gillette's decision includes phasing Woods out of their advertising and from public appearances and other efforts linking the two entities together.

Woods hasn't been seen in a prime-time television commercial since a Gillette spot on Nov. 29, according to research firm Nielsen Co.

The company has not given a date as to if and when they will bring Woods back as a spokesman.

Gatorade drops Tiger Woods sponsorship

Soft drink brand Gatorade says it is to drop a Tiger Woods-endorsed product but said it was not related to revelations about the golfer's private life.
PepsiCo-owned Gatorade said the decision to axe the Tiger Focus drink was made a few months ago.
Since the 14-times major winner crashed his car on 27 November, many women have claimed to have had affairs with Woods.
There are also reports that adverts featuring Woods have vanished from US prime-time broadcast and cable TV.
   
 We decided several months ago to discontinue Gatorade Tiger Focus along with some other products to make room for our planned series of innovative products in 2010 
PepsiCo statement

Woods' mother-in-law returns home
According to data from US media research firm Nielsen, the last prime-time advert featuring the 33-year-old golfer was a 30-second Gillette item on 29 November.
That commercial was broadcast eight times during November, Nielsen spokesman Aaron Lewis said.
Woods' other sponsors include consultancy firm Accenture. He is reported to be the first sports star to be worth more than $1bn.
Nike has been Woods' biggest sponsor since the start of his career, signing its first contract with him as long ago as 1996.
'Mentally tough'
He signed a five-year deal with Gatorade in 2007 for an estimated $100m (£61.7m).
"We decided several months ago to discontinue Gatorade Tiger Focus along with some other products to make room for our planned series of innovative products in 2010," said PepsiCo in a statement.
The marketing of Gatorade is closely linked to sports. Other athletes it sponsors include former basketball player Michael Jordan and sprinter Usain Bolt.
Gatorade Tiger Focus was launched as a sports drink aimed at athletes.
Gatorade's website describes Gatorade Tiger Focus to be a drink "designed with athletes in mind, helping them to be as mentally tough as they are physically".
The decision to drop the drink was first reported by soft-drinks' industry newsletter, Beverage Digest, on 25 November - two days before Woods crashed his car and sparked off the chain of events which continues to feature in the global media.
Tiger Force was launched in March 2008, and according to Beverage Digest the Woods-backed drink represented less than 5% of Gatorade's volume.

Hi - have been busy for a few days so not able to keep up to date.  Some of the news items were also too explicit to post.  I watched a TV interview with one of the "ladies" involved and she said the words "It was not about the money" so many times it became annoying.  And of course that makes you know it was about the money. They are all very predicatable except for Elin whom I cannot believe did not suspect anything.  My thoughts are that she will take the kids, the $320m - and run.  And as far as Tiger being sorry about it all - the only thing he would really be sorry for is that he was found out.


Tiger Woods wife Elin Nordegren to leave him, newspaper reports


Article from: The Courier-Mail

December 12, 2009 11:00pm

TIGER Woods' wife is going to leave him after Christmas, a British tabloid claims.

Swedish model Elin Nordegren is in talks with divorce lawyers but keeping up a show of normal family life for the sake of their two children, according to a report in News of the World as it emerged that another of Woods' sponsors, Gillette, was considering ditching him.

Nordegren wants to spend Christmas with Woods and the kids in Sweden before a trial separation in the New Year, a friend told the newspaper.

"Elin will pretend it's the usual family celebration for the children and then ditch the man," the friend said.

Gillette ads axed: Tiger Wood may lose sponsor

"In the short term they'll act like any other loving couple. Elin won't break it all up right away. But she does need some time alone to herself and a legal separation will happen very quickly."

It has been claimed Nordegren has already moved herself and the children - two-year-old daughter Sam and 10-month-old son Charlie - out of the marital home to a separate house down the road in Windermere, Florida.

Next they will move to the new mansion she's bought on an island near Stockholm.

Reports in the US claim Woods has offered Nordegren $5.3 million from his $US974m fortune to stand by him for the next two years.

She will reportedly receive a further $61m if she stays for a further five years.

One divorce lawyer predicted that she was in line to receive the biggest-ever divorce settlement of up to $320m.

Try not to cry as Woods becomes credit crunch victim

General Motors drops Tiger Woods

General Motors drops Tiger Woods

Posted by ZA on November 24, 2008

“Wow!”

That’s the reaction that most people are having to the news that GM is ending its 9-year relationship with golfing megastar Tiger Woods. Mr. Woods endorsed GM’s Buick brand. GM announced it was ending their endorsement deal as part of the on-going cost cutting measures at the struggling auto giant. GM says the separation is amicable and also being done so Tiger can spend more time with his family.

I’m not buying that last part. Yes, I know Tiger wants to spend more time with his family, but I don’t think GM was keeping him from doing that. That part of the statement was just a cover to make it look less like GM is dumping Woods. Let’s be clear here, General Motors is dumping Tiger Woods as an endorser.

Are they doing it because Tiger is not an effective endorser for them? No, although they probably suffered a bit this past year with Tiger on the shelf after knee surgery. The reality is GM just can’t afford these type of luxuries anymore, so they have to cut loose one of the top sports brands on the planet. Companies have to make these type of decisions when times get tough, and this is just part of the way things will go in the sponsorship world now that the economy is in full recession.

How does Tiger react to this news? I’m sure he’s a little shocked and maybe a bit hurt, but probably not devastate. He knows GM is cutting him because they are failing as a business, not for something that he did. But it still has to sting to be dropped after almost a decade working together, and I’m sure there will be some lingering doubts about his other deals. What if Nike hits a rough patch? Can Gatorade afford to keep pushing Tigerade, which is just Gatorade rebranded, in a shrinking sports drink market? Tiger is one of the top pitchman today, but even he’s not immune from the economic downturn.

What is next for Tiger & GM as they head their separate ways? General Motors is in survival mode, they’ve already eliminated their ad spending on the Superbowl. I expect them to continue to slash non-essential marketing costs, so all of their sports sponsorships will be in jeopardy. They are saying they are still committed to sponsorship of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, but I wouldn’t cash that check yet if I was VANOC. GM is going to have to make some very tough choices with their marketing expenses, and some of the decisions they might not get to make themselves.

I expect Tiger Woods to rebound from this setback rather quickly. This is the off-season for golf and Tiger is not coming back until The Masters in April. But assuming his knee is fully healed by then, he should pick up where he left off as the most dominant golfer in the history of the sport. That means that by the end of 2009 new sponsorship deals will be lining up to get a piece of Tiger, even in a down economy. How would Tiger look in a Lexus as a pitchman for Toyota? Or perhaps he goes the luxury route and inks a deal with BMW or Mercedes Benz. Regardless I expect Tiger to land on his feet and back behind the wheel of another auto endorsement deal very soon.

You won’t be seeing Tiger pitching Buick anymore, his endorsement deal with GM is done. by ZA on November 24, 2008

Woods likely is finished as foremost pitchman

Gillett reduces exposure with philanderer — other companies might follow


By Emily Friedrix

updated 7:14 p.m. ET, Sat., Dec . 12, 2009
When Tiger Woods’ break from golf ends, he’s unlikely to regain his crown as one of the world’s most valuable pitchmen, even if he gets back to winning tournaments and convinces people he’s changed.

America loves comeback stories, but his future ad opportunities are likely to be limited to sports product endorsements, significantly reducing his earnings power.

That was the takeaway from Gillette’s announcement Saturday that it won’t feature Woods in its ads for an unspecified period of time. It was the first major sponsor to distance itself from Woods since he announced late Friday he is taking an indefinite leave from golf to work on his marriage after allegations of infidelity surfaced in recent weeks.

Woods’ time-out and request for privacy may give sponsors the cover they need to pull their ads indefinitely and distance themselves from allegations that Woods had trysts with multiple women.

AT&T said it is evaluating its relationship with the golfer. Representatives from Accenture won’t say what its plans are regarding Woods, whom the consulting firm has used to personify its claimed attributes of integrity and high performance. But its Web site no longer displays on its home page an image of the golfer that had been there as recently as Thursday.

Companies often use athletes and celebrities in image ads not to sell products but to ride the coattails of their perceived qualities in the hope that it will rub off on them. Those kinds of ads are now likely gone forever for Woods as Tiger Inc. has self-destructed, costing him hundreds of millions in future endorsement fees.

Before the Nov. 27 car accident that exposed Woods’ alleged serial infidelity, 91 percent of the opinions expressed about him on the Internet were positive, according to Zeta Interactive. As of Saturday, Woods’ positive rating online had fallen to just 41 percent.

That’s bad news for Accenture. The global consulting and outsourcing firm lauded its connections with Woods in a 2006 news release, saying its “Go on, be a Tiger” mpaign had boosted its image significantly.

“The world associates Tiger with high performance. He embodies the relentless pursuit of perfection,” James E. Murphy, Accenture’s chief marketing and communications officer, was quoted as saying in that release. The company didn’t return requests for comment Saturday.

Gillette, which uses the slogan “The best a man can get,” said it won’t air advertisements featuring Woods or include him in public appearances. Woods was hired by Gillette in 2007 and has been in ads for Gillette Fusion Power razors with titles like “Phenom” and “Champions” with other stars including tennis great Roger Federer and soccer player Thierry Henry.

“This is supporting his desire to step out of the public eye and we’re going to support him by helping him to take a lower profile,” said Damon Jones, a spokesman for Gillette, a unit of Cincinnati-based Procter & Gamble.

He wouldn’t say when — or if — the company would resume ads with Woods. Woods hasn’t been seen in a prime-time television commercial since a Gillette spot on Nov. 29, according to research firm Nielsen Co.

No companies have cut ties altogether to Woods in the weeks since his marital troubles came to light, tarnishing the image of a man who spent 13 years in the public eye carefully cultivating a good guy image. But with the 33-year-old’s decision to leave golf — at least temporarily — they’re now forced to consider their future with him.

“They’re going to hedge, they’re going to buy some time to determine whether or not the situation will turn,” said Rick Burton, former chief marketing officer of the United States Olympic Committee and now a sports marketing professor at Syracuse University.

  Tiger Woods taking break from golf
Dec. 12: In the wake of a series of public comments by women who claim to have had affairs with him, golf star Tiger Woods referred to “infidelity” on his website and announced that he is taking an “indefinite” leave from the PGA Tour. NBC’s Mark Potter reports.
Today show

Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg, said Friday it would be “premature and inappropriate” to talk about Woods’ specific business relationships. “Each sponsor has unique considerations and ultimately the decisions they make we would fully understand and accept.”

Woods’ array of endorsements helped him become the first sports star to earn $1 billion, according to Forbes. Michael Jordan, Woods’ closest contemporary, is a distant second at $800 million, amassed during and after an NBA career that spanned nearly 20 years. Basketball star LeBron James has made public his desire to be the next athlete to earn $1 billion. Woods’ time-out could mean more room for James and other athletes to snatch up more endorsements.

Nike Inc. said late Friday it supports his decision. Gatorade, a unit of PepsiCo Inc., said previously it supports Woods and said Saturday it has no updated comment. EA Sports has been selling Tiger Woods video golf games for a decade, and its next edition featuring him comes out in six months, giving it time to see what happens. Watch maker Tag Heuer did not return a call Saturday.

All of these companies are examining their relationships with him, said Jonathan Bernstein, president of Bernstein Crisis Management. He expects they are commissioning research to see how much damage — if any — Woods’ scandal is doing to their brands.

The answer to that may lie in the nature of the product being pitched.

“The ones that would stand to lose the least are sports,” Bernstein said. “The connection with a watch company or a clothing company is much more tenuous and probably more subject to damage than connections to Nike.”

A Wisconsin middle school already has learned Tiger Inc. may not be worth as much as it was a month ago.

  Tiger departs with much of golf's appeal
Dec. 11: Bill Wolff, sports columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer, talks with Rachel Maddow about the impact of Tiger Woods' "indefinite break from professional golf" on the sport of golf and its related businesses.
The Rachel Maddow Show

The band at the Clintonville middle school had expected to raise $1,600 from an autographed photo of Woods that was auctioned off Dec. 5. Instead, most of the people just shook their heads as they walked by the picture, which finally sold for $300.

“The faces they were making, saying ’Are you kidding? Why would you do this?”’ said Adam Englebretson, athletic director for the Clintonville district’s high school.

Woods’ earnings prowess also has been cut short. “The sponsors who want to sign him up may be different,” said Larry L. Smith, president of the Institute for Crisis Management. “It may be somebody who wants to market only to men or only to the avid golfer. There may be fewer cross-generational or cross-demographic sponsors.”

Even for Nike, which built its golf business that generates $650 million a year in revenue around Woods, the timing of the scandal couldn’t be worse. “Nike Golf is Tiger Woods,” said Mike Paul, president of MGP & Associates PR. “This is the time of year that they should be selling golf clubs for Christmas.”

Mary Le Beau is among the golfers now reluctant to buy Nike equipment or apparel tied to Tiger. “There’s so many choices that you don’t have to give up any quality to go with your conscience,” said the 52-year-old marketer from Green Bay, Wis.

Others at risk of becoming collateral damage include: the television networks that drove up the bidding to show golf tournaments and other professional golfers who have benefited from the quadrupling of prize money since Woods joined the PGA tour in 1996.

The PGA’s contracts with TV broadcasters NBC and CBS expire in 2012, with negotiations on a new deal likely to begin during the second half of next year.

As we wind down from TigerCrashGate -- yes, it's true, we're almost done, at least until he returns to the course -- it's worth taking a look at the way that this story spiraled from one-car hydrant-bump to worldwide scandal, one whose cost will eventually be measured in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

snip

The Tabloids nailed some things and they were off course in other things:

snip...


There were some notable missteps on the tabloids' part. The RadarOnline.com story about Elin Woods moving out proved to be completely groundless, even though many outlets picked it up and ran with it. (We decided not to here because of the flimsiness of the sources.) More significantly, the Life & Style story about two professional golfers calling out Woods turned out to be an utter falsehood; we had decided to mention it here because there was on-the-record attribution, not "unnamed sources." Surely, we figured, no magazine would be foolish enough to print actual names without verifying. Wrong. Lesson learned -- and that's an aspect of this story that deserves further scrutiny.

Child services at Tiger Wood's house - report

Article from: Agence France-Presse

Carly Crawford, AFP

December 14, 2009 09:41am

CHILD services officers have reportedly visited the home of Tiger Woods, as another major sponsor pulls the plug on its association with the troubled golfer.

Officials from Florida's Department of Children and Families went to the golfer's home on Saturday, RadarOnline.com reported, citing an unnamed source.

There has been speculation that a domestic incident may have led to Woods' crash early on November 27 when his SUV hit a fire hydrant and a neighbour's tree as he was leaving his home, FoxSports.com reports.

Woods, who admitted his infidelity Friday when he announced he was taking an "indefinite" hiatus from golf, denied those allegations and said his wife Elin Nordegren was courageous in trying to aid him after he was injured.

Divorce lawyers: Tiger Wood's wife set to leave him, Gillette drops ads

"Child abuse, adult investigations in the state of Florida are confidential," agency spokeswoman Carrie Hoeppner told the New York Daily News.

  # In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 

"I'm just not able by law to give confirmation about whether we visited the family and that is in the interest of protecting the child."

Tiger and Elin have been married five years and have a two-year-old daughter Sam and a 10-month-old son Charlie.

Orange County Sheriff Department's deputies accompanied the family agency officials, RadarOnline.com reported.

"Our deputies met with members of the Department of Children and Families," Capt. Angelo Nieves told the website. "But all details are being kept secret."

Another major sponsor of Woods, Accenture, announced today it was ending its six-year ties with the golf star, saying he "is no longer the right representative''.

"For the past six years, Accenture and Tiger Woods have had a very successful sponsorship arrangement and his achievements on the golf course have been a powerful metaphor for business success in Accenture's advertising,'' the Dublin-based technology, management and outsourcing consultancy said in a statement.

"However, given the circumstances of the last two weeks, after careful consideration and analysis, the company has determined that he is no longer the right representative for its advertising. Accenture said that it wishes only the best for Tiger Woods and his family.''

Gillette announced on Saturday it would phase him out of advertisements while he takes a break from golf, calling it a supportive move.

The razor company said: "As Tiger takes a break from the public eye, we will support his desire for privacy by limiting his role in our marketing."

However, Nike and EA Sports, the video game company, are so far standing by the world No 1 and none of his sponsors have permanently ended their relationship with him.

Meanwhile, wife Elin is reported to be having talks with divorce lawyers.

A friend said the Swedish model would play happy families over the festive period for the sake of her children.

They will spend Christmas together in Sweden but separation will follow, she was quoted as saying in weekend reports from London.

The friend added: "Elin will pretend it's the usual family celebration for the children, and then ditch him.

"She won't break it all up right now. But she does need time alone to herself, and a legal separation will happen very quickly.

"She's understandably mad at Tiger, but she's hurting for him too. Her anger is mixed with sadness involving Tiger and his state of mind. But she sees Sweden as a permanent move right now."

Elin has bought a mansion on an island near Stockholm.

"Tiger will have to fly back and forth to see his kids. But they're all used to that," the friend said.

The golf ace's plummeting image took another blow when one of his 12 mistresses alleged he had sex with her in his marital bed on the night his beloved dad died of cancer.

Lingerie model Jamie Jungers, 26, said Woods had been told hours earlier that Earl Woods was "in a bad way". But, after visiting his dad in a hospice, Tiger went home and cheated on Elin with her.

As they lay in bed afterwards, Woods got a call telling him Earl had passed away. Jungers said: "I was beside him wearing nothing but a pair of panties."

Woods Snr, 74, had been described by his son as: "My best friend and greatest role model - an amazing dad, coach, mentor, soldier, husband and friend."

It also emerged over the weekend that Woods is still in touch with Rachel Uchitel, 34, the first woman linked to him as the scandal broke.

Despite Ms Uchitel allegedly getting a multi-million-dollar payoff from Woods' camp to not speak to the media, she insisted she and Woods were "still together, no matter what". She was reported as saying: "He said we have to wait a couple of weeks before we can meet up again. But I am his number one girl."

But Woods' long-time caddie, New Zealander Steve Williams, is standing by his boss. "I understand he needs a break to sort his personal stuff out. I'll be there for him when he returns to play," he said.

I personally do not think that Tiger and Elin will be able to mend their marriage..too much hurt and damage has been caused imo...She needs to move on..hope that this was all worth it to him...He needs to stay single and just be a serial dater, not a husband imo..Elin deserves so much more than a cheating husband...If it was 1 night stand, perhaps they could recover..but it seems to be long term dating and attachments for these women has occurred...from what we are reading...Really sad...

An official from the Florida Department of Children and Families tells TMZ a representative from the Department went to Tiger Woods' home Friday for a "well-being check."

The official says the Department received a complaint -- though we do not know who it was from or the nature of the complaint. The Department then got in touch with the Orange County Sheriff to help get through security at Tiger's gated community.

We're told the visit was not part of an investigation, but rather a routine procedure when a complaint is lodged. The Department not only evaluates the safety of the children but the adults in the house as well.

We do not know who was at the home when the visit took place.

A formal investigation has not been opened -- the case is being evaluated.

Children Services Confirms Visit to Tiger Woods (according to TMZ)

An official from the Florida Department of Children and Families tells TMZ a representative from the Department went to Tiger Woods' home Friday for a "well-being check."

The official says the Department received a complaint -- though we do not know who it was from or the nature of the complaint. The Department then got in touch with the Orange County Sheriff to help get through security at Tiger's gated community.

We're told the visit was not part of an investigation, but rather a routine procedure when a complaint is lodged. The Department not only evaluates the safety of the children but the adults in the house as well.

We do not know who was at the home when the visit took place.

A formal investigation has not been opened -- the case is being evaluated.

Yes, DCF, is obligated to check out every complaint. Do you think it was more for Elin?

This will die down when that "stinky piece of cheese" faces the people directly, it will then fizzle.

It is the mystery, Cookie, and all the trappings of a Soap Opera. 

The TV Soaps are no longer interesting, (since the Writer's strike) this could be also why the public is clamboring for more.

We don't really want more of Tiger, just mainly people like to solve mysteries, human nature.

This just isn't going away until that Boob comes out of hiding, maybe,he is on that boat?  A clinic?  or with Mama?  ::MonkeyCool::

I was watching a news show this morning...they were talking about Tiger of course..some don't think that he will bounce back to popularity as fast as some other fallen athletes..
another one mentioned something else that caught my interest..he said that TW is/was missing social skills...he was always surrounded by his father and other adults...caddies, publicist etc... and that got me thinking....did we ever see TW just out having fun with people his own age, even in his teen years...did he ever go on a date without a huge entourage around him? did he ever just get to enjoy being a little boy watching cartoons on a Saturday morning, just being lazy and enjoying being a kid?
With all of his talent and his money etc...there was/is a lot missing in his personal life....like having a life, really...not making excuses for Tiger but just another way of looking at him as a person...

Tiger earned "30 Million" by the time he was 21 years old, as a child he needed to constantly practice on his swing, so I guess he

couldn't watch Captain Kangaroo, Sesame Street or Cartoons (as most of us) his Pop was strict and it paid off.


I lifted a Obit of "Pop" (as Tiger called him) and it is interesting.  I would say Tiger was one lucky guy to have this man as Pop.

Bio from http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=14157251




Biography of Earl Dennison Woods, (snip) Birth:  Mar. 5, 1932  Death:  May 3, 2006

He is best remembered as the father and inspiration for professional golfer Tiger Woods; he was instrumental in his son's success by serving as his teacher, coach, and mentor. Born Earl Dennison Woods of mixed Black, Chinese and Native American ancestry in Manhattan, Kansas, he was the youngest and only boy, with three sisters, to a scorekeeper for baseball games.


His father would teach him the game until his death in 1943. When his mother died in 1947, young Earl was raised by his oldest sister, Hattie Belle, for the next seven years. He attended Kansas State University on a baseball scholarship, playing the catcher position, and upon graduation from college in 1953 with a BA in Sociology (and a minor in Psychology), he turned down an offer to join the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro League to start a career as an Infantry Second Lieutenant in the Army, following his commissioning from ROTC. He would serve two tours in Vietnam during that war, the first tour as a Personnel Officer in an Infantry unit (1967-1968), and the second as part of the Army's new Special Forces (Green Berets) (1972-1973). Early in his military career, he married Barbara Woods Gary; they would have three sons: Kevin, Earl Jr, and Royce. Although he rarely saw his family due to his military duties, they would later claim that they did not feel neglected during their upbringing although his marriage ended in divorce. It was in Thailand that he met his second wife, Kultida "Tida" Punsawad, who was of mixed Thai, Chinese and Dutch ancestry. They would have a son, Eldrick Tiger, born December 30, 1975, who Earl named for his South Vietnamese Army friend, Lieutenant Colonel Vuong Dang "Tiger" Phong. Earl would retire from the Army with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in 1974, settling in Cypress, California, serving in a variety of managerial jobs, including Major Subcontracts Administrator for Brunswick Corporation and materials manager for McDonnell Douglas, finally retiring again in 1988. He considered his most important job was to concentrate on raising his son. Earl would teach Tiger how to play golf from the age of 3, Tiger soon proved to be a golf prodigy. Earl shared many of his teaching techniques and child rearing theories in three books: "Training a Tiger" (1997), "Playing Through: Straight Talk on Hard Work, Big Dreams, and Adventures with Tiger" (1998), and "Start Something: You can Make a Difference" (2000). However, he made it very clear that his purpose was not to raise a good golfer, but to raise a good person. After Tiger won his third Masters, Earl stopped advising him, and began to enjoy his retirement with his wife. A chain smoker, in 1986 Woods had to have heart bypass surgery. In his later years, Woods suffered from diabetes, and in 1998, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Following treatment, it went into remission, only to return in 2004. Despite treatment, it spread into his entire body, and he died at his home in Cypress, California, on May 3, 2006. His hometown of Manhattan, Kansas, named the Earl Woods National Youth Golf Academy in his honor. But Earl Woods' proudest accolade came from Tiger himself, "My dad was my best friend, my mentor and greatest role model." (bio by: Kit and Morgan Benson)

 
Cause of death: Cancer

As a sportswriter for 40 years who covered professional golf for this newspaper for most of the past two decades, I've seen and occasionally written about badly behaving athletes in sports across the board, including the PGA Tour, so very little surprises me anymore. But I can't say that about this sadly sordid story.

I'm stunned, and maybe that's why I've also been feeling somewhat uneasy ever since Woods's run-in with a fire hydrant on Nov. 27 became public. Plainly put, I'm also a little embarrassed that I did not have a clue about Woods's bizarre double life in what has become one of the most shocking free-falls from grace in the history of sports.

A poster, noted, that The plane was not empty Tiger was in Boston talking to the reps at Gillette about his endorsements
Gillette is Headquarted in Boston. He then flew to Sweden to their apartment to wait for his wife.

We do not know if this is true, sound's possible.

Men just don't like NG, because, she exagerates everything and men are leary of her.

Cookie, I didn't think of that "gimmick" until after I read a post, "no rings", maybethe twin.

IMO...Elin is wearing her rings, she isn't going to leave her jewerly, anywhere, she is just too smart.

She would have had a Baseball cap on or had someone pump the gas for her if the person didn't want to be seen.

I believe it was the twin and she wanted to be seen or else why face outward pumping gas?

I turn my back when I pump gas.  I would never pump gas if I could afford,either, females don't like smelling like gasoline.

They are slick, got hand it to them. ::MonkeyHaHa::

Report: Doctor being investigated in PED probe
… 37 mins ago
NEW YORK – A Canadian doctor who has treated golfer Tiger Woods, swimmer Dara Torres and NFL players is suspected of providing athletes with performance-enhancing drugs, according to a newspaper report.

Human growth hormone and Actovegin, a drug extracted from calf's blood, in Dr. Anthony Galea's bag at the U.S.-Canada border in late September, The New York Times reported. He was arrested Oct. 15 in Toronto by Canadian police.

Using, selling or importing Actovegin is illegal in the United States.

The FBI has opened an investigation based in part on medical records found on Galea's computer relating to several professional athletes, people briefed on the inquiry told the Times on condition of anonymity because they did not want to be identified discussing a continuing investigation.

The anonymous sources did not disclose the names of the athletes, and Galea told the newspaper "it would be impossible" for investigators to have found material linking his athletes to performance-enhancing drugs.

According to the newspaper, Galea has developed a blood-spinning technique — platelet-rich plasma therapy — to help speed post-surgery recovery.

Galea visited Woods' home in Florida at least four times in February and March, the newspaper reported, to provide that platelet therapy after his agents were concerned by his slow recovery from June 2008 knee surgery.

Asked about Woods' involvement with Galea, agent Mark Steinberg told the newspaper in an e-mail: "I would really ask that you guys don't write this? If Tiger is NOT implicated, and won't be, let's please give the kid a break."

According to the report, Galea said Woods was referred to him by the golfer's agents at International Management Group.

However, Steinberg sent an e-mail to the AP on Tuesday that said: "No one at IMG has ever met or recommended Dr. Galea, nor were we worried about the progress of Tiger's recovery, as the Times falsely reported. The treatment Tiger received is a widely accepted therapy and to suggest some connection with illegality is recklessly irresponsible."

Woods announced Friday that he was taking an indefinite leave from golf to concentrate on his marriage after allegations of infidelity surfaced in recent weeks.

Torres told the newspaper Galea found a previously undiagnosed tear in her quad tendon.

"Excluding draining my knee, he has never treated me, but I did see his chiropractor who did soft-tissue work on my leg," she said in an e-mail to the Times. "That was the extent of my visit with him."

Her agent, Evan Morgenstein, told the AP that Torres was not available for comment Monday night.

Brian H. Greenspan, Galea's criminal defense attorney, said an investigation will vindicate his client.

"Dr. Galea was never engaged in any wrongdoing or any impropriety," Greenspan said. "Not only does he have a reputation that is impeccable, he is a person at the very top of his profession."

While acknowledging he used HGH himself for 10 years, Galea told the newspaper he never gave any athletes the substance, which is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency. And Galea told the Times he has never combined HGH or Actovegin with his platelet treatments.

"All these athletes come see me in Canada cause I fix them, and I think people just assume that I'm giving them stuff," he told the newspaper. "They don't have to come to me to get HGH and steroids. You can walk into your local gym in New York and get HGH."

Prescribing HGH is legal in Canada; it can be used in the United States but only in a few instances that don't include hastening recovery from surgery.

Galea is also being investigated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for smuggling, advertising and selling unapproved drugs as well as criminal conspiracy, the Times

Accused doctor details Tiger Woods knee rehab

snip

If Tiger Woods has been waiting for another big story to break, something to ease the intensive coverage of his infidelities, this isn’t what he had in mind. The New York Times and other media outlets are reporting that Dr. Anthony Galea, who treated Woods during his recovery from knee surgery, is under criminal investigation for allegedly providing athletes with performance-enhancing drugs.

1. The "gas pumping" photo, yesterday, or the day before.

2. "The Thai lunch photo" is today's with the children.

(she needs some Banana Pudding, Macaroni,Swedish Meatballs,etc.)

Yes, Cookie, she appears to be wearing the same boots, same watch...it could be very likely it is really Elin.
I wished her Mom stayed around, someone needs to encourage Elin to go shopping:)

 ::DancingSantaMonkey1::

She needs to pack the up the children and go shopping in NYC, to eat her way to happiness and then shop until she drops.
The girl needs good therapy and that is shopping her way to happiness and to stop and see Santa with the Kids, not quite in that order.

The money for a photographers photo of TW could go as high as 100,000, and a Elin photo as high as 20,000.
Reports: Tiger is hitting golf balls at night, so photographer's can't capture him, or so he thinks...

2. "The Thai lunch photo" is today's with the children.

(she needs some Banana Pudding, Macaroni,Swedish Meatballs,etc.)

Yes, Cookie, she appears to be wearing the same boots, same watch...it could be very likely it is really Elin.
I wished her Mom stayed around, someone needs to encourage Elin to go shopping:)

 ::DancingSantaMonkey1::

She needs to pack the up the children and go shopping in NYC, to eat her way to happiness and then shop until she drops.
The girl needs good therapy and that is shopping her way to happiness and to stop and see Santa with the Kids, not quite in that order.

The money for a photographers photo of TW could go as high as 100,000, and a Elin photo as high as 20,000.
Reports: Tiger is hitting golf balls at night, so photographer's can't capture him, or so he thinks...

lol! let her spend some time with us over here..we will fatten her up and also cheer her up!  She did smile while pumping gas...someone must have said something funny..at least she isn't looking all sad and weepy...You go Girl Elin!



 ::DancingSantaMonkey1:: Go Elin!!  Yeppers, Elin, need to become Monkey for friendship & recipes!
 
She really needs to shop, (things are not getting better) and also, Elin, should visit Children's hospitals, that will do her good.
There is nothing like visiting patients in the Hospital, it really heals your heart, almost, better than shopping.

Tiger Woods’ wife Elin 'wants half his fortune' as she prepares to meet divorce lawyers
 
 
By Ryan Parry 16/12/2009

Tiger Woods’ devastated wife has called in California’s top celebrity divorce lawyer, say her friends
. ::MonkeyJnBox::

And Elin Nordegren – rocked by her husband’s string of alleged affairs – could get half the £337.5million he has earned in the five years they have been married.

The 29-year-old Swedish model, seen out in Florida yesterday minus her wedding ring, is believed to be meeting celebrity lawyer Sorrell Trope next week.

Trope, 82, a partner in Californian law firm Trope and Trope, has represented big-name stars including Cary Grant, Nicole Kidman, Nicolas Cage and Britney Spears in a 60-year career.

And in another blow to Woods, Elin is believed to be planning to file for divorce in California – where the couple have a home – and not Florida, where they live.

Under California law the “no-fault divorce”, introduced in 1970, means there is an equal division of assets and property.

This could mean that any pre-nup agreement Elin signed with the golf star will be torn up.

A source said: “Mr Trope is the best divorce lawyer in the business and the divorce laws in California are much more favourable than most other states.

Tiger Woods sex scandal: Wife Elin Nordegren, kids going to Sweden while Tiger spends time with pals

Elin Nordegren (right), with daughter Sam Alexis in Florida, will reportedly spend holidays in Sweden with her children and without husband, Tiger Woods.

"He is very contrite, but he's also disoriented," a longtime friend of Woods told the Daily News on Tuesday. "He still can't believe this is happening."
Woods, whose image has been wrecked by reports he cheated on his wife, Elin Nordegren, with a bevy of babes, is stressed out but "not on sedatives," the source said.

The golfing great is looking for a safe harbor and "waiting for the storm to settle."

"He's been talking about going away with two or three of his friends, just the boys," said the friend, who has known Woods since the golfer was a teenager.

"They've been trying to figure out a place that would be safe."

Woods' posse includes his newly married pal, Byron Bell, whose name was drawn into the scandal when it was revealed he helped deliver New York party girl Rachel Uchitel to Australia for a reported rendezvous with Woods.

The other "boys," according to the source, are college pals from Stanford.

"Their wives aren't happy," he said.

Neither is Nordegren, who has said nothing publicly about her husband's "transgressions" - and who was not wearing her wedding ring in recent photographs.

"Elin is planning to take the kids to spend the holidays with her family in Sweden," the source said, who added that the $2 million island hideaway Nordegren bought before the scandal erupted is probably not where she will spend Christmas.

"Tiger and Elin bought that for her mom as a weekend place," the source said.

Woods' friend said it's likely the golfer cheated on Nordegren with more than the dozen or so women who have already emerged since Thanksgiving.

"But some of them probably don't want to come forward," he said. "The first couple of mistresses seemed special. They don't want to be No. 42."

Woods' holiday escape plans were revealed on the same day that:

- MSNBC.com reported that the golfer sent hush money to his honeys.

Woods wired anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 a month to several of the busty babes and one lucky lady reportedly was on Tiger's tab to the tune of up to $20,000 a month, the network reported.

"The money comes via a wire transfer," one woman told MSNBC. "There's no contract about it, there's no discussion about what it's for, but it's implied that it's in exchange for keeping quiet about his affair."

MSNBC cited as their sources "several women who were involved with the golfer" but did not identify any of them.

- A report said Theresa Rogers, the latest woman linked to Woods, bragged to buddies that she showed the golfer "everything he needed to know to be a great lover."

"Theresa was crazy about Tiger but she didn't want to feel like a bought woman, a paid escort," a source told RadarOnline.com. "She just wanted to be the woman who schooled Tiger in the bedroom."

A fortysomething South Florida bombshell, Rogers was outed earlier by Radar as one of the disgraced golf great's longest-serving gal pals.

Radar reported Rogers traveled extensively with Woods over a five-year period and took up with Woods, 33, before he married Nordegren, 29. She continued seeing him after he tied the knot, according to Radar.

That report could not be independently confirmed.

Tiger Woods' wife Elin is seeking divorce advice

Article from: Agence France-Presse

December 17, 2009 08:18am

TIGER Woods' wife is reportedly preparing for divorce as an ex-girlfriend claims philandering by Woods' father may have affected him as a child.

As Woods' wife Elin Nordegren reportedly prepares to divorce him, his high school sweetheart Dina Parr claims he was hurt by his own father’s affairs long before his own marital infidelities, the New York Post reports.

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Tiger's mistresses
        * Gallery: Famous femmes fatale
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 


In an interview with E! News, former flame Dina Parr said Woods would call her to talk about problems between his parents.

Woods would call Parr from the road during high school and college tournaments.

"He would just call crying and say, ‘My dad is with another woman,’ and that would be all he could say,’" Parr recalled. "He would be so upset, so I just tried to be there for him and listen to him."

"He loved his father," Parr said. "And I know that was the one thing about his dad that he could never get over. So yeah, it’s interesting that it’s turning out that he’s doing the same thing."

Nordegren, the Swedish model who married Woods in 2004, will leave the billionaire golf star after Christmas following the sex scandal that has halted his career, according to the American media reports.

ABC News, NBC News and People magazine, all citing unnamed sources close to Nordegren, reported that she will split with Woods after his admission of infidelity and reports that at least 14 women had affairs with the golf icon.

"Divorce is 100 per cent on," the ABC News website reported a source saying. "She's not rushing to divorce, however. She's going to take her sweet time. She wants all the dirty laundry to be out on the table before she signs anything."

The mother of Tiger's children -- two-year-old daughter Sam and 10-month-old son Charlie -- has met lawyers to renegotiate her prenuptial agreement with Woods, People magazine reported.

"She plans to leave Tiger," one source was quoted as saying. "She has made up her mind. There's nothing to think about; he's never going to change," another source reportedly said.

NBC News reported that Nordegren's recent trips to a service station and Thai restaurant without her wedding ring were meant to signal her plans.

"She and Tiger are living separately now but she'll be making this split very open and official right after Christmas," NBC reported one source as saying.

"Elin is not going to be one of these 'stand by her man' women," another source told NBC. "This is beyond embarrassing, and she has a daughter and son she has to think about, who will know about this one day.

"Forgiveness isn't exactly around the corner."

Nordegren has bought a beachfront estate on an island near Stockholm and several websites reported Nordegren talked with movers at the mansion she shared with Woods near Orlando.

"She's making plans to move out and take the kids with her," the New York Post quoted an unnamed source as saying. "She's planning to go somewhere warm and Tiger-free for Christmas."

Entertainment gossip website TMZ reported yesterday that Nordegren, 29, is also near a marketing deal with Puma, a rival of Nike, which is the foremost sponsor to announce it will support Woods, even as Accenture has cut ties with him and several others are reassessing their deals.

Woods has put his career on indefinite hold "to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person," but US magazine reported he has remained in contact with Rachel Uchitel, whose tabloid-exposed fling three weeks ago began the firestorm.

"They are not over," a source told US, adding that Woods paid her three million dollars to stay silent about their relationship but continues to send her text messages.

Woods and Uchitel are both reportedly in West Palm Beach, Florida, where Uchitel has family and Woods has a 22 million-dollar yacht named Privacy.

Along with his squeaky clean image being shattered, Woods faced trouble on a new front, as a Canadian doctor who treated Woods in February for a knee injury was charged with trafficking an unapproved drug.

Mark Steinberg, Woods's agent, told ABC News that the treatment his client received from Anthony Galea was proper and "to suggest some connection with illegality is recklessly irresponsible."

Galea treated several athletes, notably Canadian sprinter Donovan Bailey and Dara Torres, a 42-year-old US swimmer who has competed in five Olympics, amid reports he faces US and Canadian probes over performance-enhancing drugs.

There was some good news for Woods yesterday, however: he was named Athlete of the Decade in a vote by member editors of the Associated Press, more than half of his 56 votes returned to the US-based news agency after the November 27 car crash that began his downfall.

And the construction firm building "Tiger Woods Dubai", a golf course and housing development, said it is committed to finishing the project, which includes the first course designed by Woods.

Woods also received support from former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, who told US that his message to Woods was, "Hang in there."

Giuliani, whose 16-year marriage collapsed in 2000 amid accusations of adultery, praised Woods for kindness to his son at a golf outing and added, "We know he's going to get through it."

Goodmorning Cookie,

Thank-you for enlightening me on the October concert.  I am good, doing cornball work, Thank-you for asking. 

I hope Tiger and Elin get back together for the Holiday's, I am such an idealist.

Reports:  G. Allred, (supposedly) is hashing out a deal for There$a, (I lost count).

Tiger & Rudy, ice cream, funny, what favor would it be?  Chocolate and Vanilla?   ::DancingSantaMonkey1::

Rudy is so respected why he decide to put himself in the position of defending TW is beyond me.

Tiger should make himself useful go out and pass out gifts to Veteran's children and give someone some good memories,

he certainly has given grief, but, he still can makes amends and cheer up others with all his dough, other than buying off people.

Tiger's Dad was a veteran, stupid Tiger should remember his Pop and do for other's like his father would want him to.

Cookie,

You brought up a good point, Rachel is slick. She is the one who can go shopping!  She has to "change her surname" for the agreement (I haven't seen that done yet), I guess, I wouldn't know if she did.

Rachel was the clever and Persuasive, or Ms. Allred was convincing...maybe, her "card hand" with damaging evidence?

What evidence is in Theresa have in her card hand? 

Ms. Allred's, daughter, said, "Mom wouldn't settle for less than a Million."

Did they say `athlete' of the decade?
By Bob Smizik | Thursday, 12:30 a.m.

 ::MonkeyHaHa::

Excuse me while I double up with laughter. That’s what happens every time I think about Tiger Woods being named Athlete of the Decade by the Associated Press.

The AP has to be kidding. Woods is the world’s most dominant athletic competitor. But greatest athlete! Ha-ha ha-ha-ha-ha! Don’t they know? He a golfer!

Woods received 56 of the 142 votes cast since last month by editors of United States newspapers that are members of the AP. More than half the ballots were returned after Nov. 27, the date of Woods’ infamous car accident outside his Florida home that launched multiple tales of infidelity.

Woods domestic problems, as despicable as they are, shouldn’t be a factor in the voting. The award is for the best athlete, not the best husband or the best citizen.

But that’s athlete as in someone who in the course of their competition might run or jump or, for that matter, on a cool day work up a sweat.


Woods so-called athleticism translates in a series of events (swings) that take no more that a few seconds and during which he is asked to hit a stationary target.

That’s an athlete?

There are countless athletes more deserving than Woods.

All of the men who finished directly behind him in the voting -- Lance Armstrong, Roger Federer, Michael Phelps, Tom Brady and Usain Bolt -- are infinitely more deserving of this award than some golfer.

The accomplishments of Federer are similar to Woods in several ways. Both dominated their sports and won more major titles than any of their opponents. Both play sports that long have appealed to the upper class and country-club set and only in the past few decades have gained popularity across all of society.

But there are major differences. Federer actually has to run in his sport. What’s more he has to hit a moving ball, not a stationary one. And, finally, he’s actually competing -- mano a mano -- against a human being.

It’s the man-to-man or woman-to-woman competition that separates golf for almost all sports -- except billiards and bowling. The essence of athletic competition is one man or one woman against another with both trying with all their might to win and -- here‘s the difference -- trying to stop the other competitor from winning. Golf does not have that.

This is not to suggest golfers are not athletes. They are. Any game that requires coordination -- and that's certainly a prerequisite of a golf swing -- requires athleticism. Woods dominance of golf is such that he's more than just an athlete, he's an excellent athlete.

But to suggest this puts him in the same class with some of the great athletes of the world makes no sense.

I was surprised Albert Pujols and Alex Rodriquez did not figure more heavily in the voting. Although neither had the sudden impact of a Phelps or an Armstrong, over the course of this decade they have established themselves as two of the greatest baseball players in history.

How does that not merit some consideration? What were they thinking when they failed to give some support those two greats of baseball?

Probably nothing, which is what they were thinking when they gave the award to Tiger Woods.

(Interesting)

'Bad boy' clauses can sink Woods, other endorsers
December 17, 2009 - 2:59pm

By DAVE CARPENTER and EMILY FREDRIX
AP Business Writers

(AP) - As Tiger Woods' personal life continues to get heavy public scrutiny, "morality clauses" presumed to be in his multimillion-dollar marketing contracts are now the topic of discussion too.

The clauses allow sponsors to pull the plug on endorsement deals in the event of poor personal conduct. Depending on their wording, they may allow corporations to cut ties with the golfer without having to pay a break-up fee.

Typically included in major sponsorship pacts, morality clauses go by many names: behavioral, good conduct, moral turpitude, personal conduct and public image clauses _ even "bad boy" clauses. Companies' decisions on whether to invoke them start with the contract wording and the immediate cost of firing the celebrity.

"It's a hard call because sponsors ideally want to be associated with the No. 1 golfer," says David Ervin, who drafts endorsement agreements for companies as a partner in the Washington, D.C. office of law firm Kelley Drye & Warren.

morning Seahorse..
 the news has kindof died down lately about Tiger...probably a good thing for him..
I do think that Elin is so done with him...for her own self pride, I do hope that she moves on...nothing to say that they could not get back together after some years and some growing up by Tiger has passed...but I think that she needs this time to be away from him and to heal...what a horrible Christmas for him and her and the adults in their families..the little ones won't know...probably just another day without dad being there...
thinking back, Elin must be really resentful of the times that Tiger was away from the children, doing whatever he said that he was doing...a lot of wasted time that he could have been spending with his kids was spent on these women..what a waste...imo and now she knows the truth..each time that he couldn't get home for this or that reason, now she knows the real reasons..that is unforgivable imo...

Tiger Woods' tale: Adventure trail passes through Orlando club scene

By Shannon J. Owens, Orlando Sentinel

9:57 PM EST, December 19, 2009

Lady Gaga's popular song "Paparazzi" is blaring through the stairwell of a trendy downtown club as a wedding party heads toward a private room that Tiger Woods is rumored to have frequented.

The Oak Room at Club 23 in Orlando is one of the several venues – along with other clubs in Orlando, Las Vegas and New York -- to be associated with Woods' admitted "infidelity." The tabloids paint a picture of Woods surrounded by beautiful women in private rooms at clubs; according to TMZ.com, managers at Club 23 had a name for this space: "The Tiger Room."

And now, we all find ourselves part of this paparazzi mess.

As the tabloids began their frenzied search to link Woods to women who were not his wife, one also noticed a trend: Waitresses and "event planners" at nightclubs filled the list. One of the alleged mistresses, Julie Postel, worked in an Orlando nightclub called Roxy.

I spent a couple of days on Tiger's trail, seeking to sneak a peek into the private VIP world that may – or may not -- have been Woods' playground in Orlando.

Up first is Club 23.

Several minutes after the wedding party headed to a private celebration at Club 23, I walk upstairs to take a look. As to be expected on a Friday night, the club is filled with the 20-something crowd, smelling of smoke and alcohol, dancing to thumping techo club beats.

Beautiful bartenders pour what is probably one too many drinks for another customer. But they don't mind buying another $12 vodka tonic if it means speaking to the friendly, attractive women serving them.

The environment is sexy but not sexual. You won't find any sex in the champagne rooms here. In Orlando's low-key nightlife scene, you're more likely to find flatbreads and beer.

And it's not necessarily posh. Vomit is splattered across the floor until a manager leaps over the bar to spray disinfectant and have a staff member clean the area. He has already broken up two fights. All while dressed in an eloquent suit.

This is typical environment of your average nightclub. Tiger is not here tonight and will likely not be here any night soon.

On to another day, and another club.

Live jazz greets visitors as I pull up to Blue Martini near the Mall at Millenia on a Monday night. TMZ says this is one of Tiger's hangouts.

When I ask one of the customers if they'd seen Tiger here before, I was greeted with a chuckle.

"Of course, he comes here all the time," the person said.

Well, probably not now. I talk to four people, none of whom would give names. They'd all seen Tiger at Blue Martini before, having a drink, a cigar and, yes, socializing with women.

After all, clubs are places for people to socialize. What grown people choose to do afterward is by their own will.

The cover charge doesn't generally exceed $10, and if you arrive early, it's free. There is an outside bar, where customers watch game highlights, munch on appetizers and sip martinis.

Not exactly the Tiger "den of sin" some would think. Before the story broke, TMZ and the National Enquirer had probably never even heard of the upscale restaurant/club connected to a public mall.

The V.I.P (very important people, pockets or privacy) area is in plain view.

V.I.P isn't limited to celebrities living or visiting in Orlando. For a $200 bottle of Grey Goose and a reservation, anyone can enjoy the private space.

If you're looking for poles, moving chandeliers or something more salacious, strip clubs can provide that and more.

That is one of the reasons why club managers, promoters and customers are cautious about speaking about Tiger. No one wants to link Woods' current image of philandering husband to Orlando's largely tame night scene. The local nightclubs offer something quite different than private hotels, mansions or the back rooms of a strip club.

And if you believe what you read in the tabloids, Tiger's conquests extended beyond nightclubs and into pancake houses.

The reality is, venues like Club 23 aren't incredibly private spaces; if Tiger were a regular, patrons returned the favor by not bothering him.

Orlando is more like Cheers than Studio 54. The tight network of downtown nightlife is so small, in fact, that one company, Church Street Entertainment. owns the popular clubs Chillers, Antigua, Latitudes, Big Belly Brewery, Ember and the Rok Room.

It's not exactly a nightlife. It's more a neighborhood.

And the fact that Tiger may have been friendly with some of the neighbors is a reflection of him, not the venues.

morning Seahorse..
 the news has kindof died down lately about Tiger...probably a good thing for him..
I do think that Elin is so done with him...for her own self pride, I do hope that she moves on...nothing to say that they could not get back together after some years and some growing up by Tiger has passed...but I think that she needs this time to be away from him and to heal...what a horrible Christmas for him and her and the adults in their families..the little ones won't know...probably just another day without dad being there...
thinking back, Elin must be really resentful of the times that Tiger was away from the children, doing whatever he said that he was doing...a lot of wasted time that he could have been spending with his kids was spent on these women..what a waste...imo and now she knows the truth..each time that he couldn't get home for this or that reason, now she knows the real reasons..that is unforgivable imo...

Hi Cookie,

How are you?  I am enjoying winter sunsets. Elin is finished, I agree.

Yes, indeed, everything did stop on Tiger news...I read where also gambled money away...wow, when it rains it pours.

I think the snowstorm bopped him out of the news.  Mama Tiger is mad at him, according to reports, she really is fond of

Elin, loves her grandchildren.  Elin is just so dog-on classy, a nice dignity about her and very patient until you get her mad:)

According to a report in People magazine, Tiger Woods and a group of friends, including some golfers, have set sail from North Palm Beach aboard his yacht Privacy, perhaps searching for just that.

The magazine quotes an unnamed source who has seen the 155-foot luxury yacht as saying that Woods' boat Privacy has been docked at Old Port Cove in North Palm Beach for more than a week.

On Saturday morning, after stocking up on provisions from Costco on Northlake Boulevard, the boat left town. Another source tells People that Woods is going to cruise in the Bahamas for a few days after hanging around the Palm Beach Gardens area this past week.

The magazine says neither source had actually seen Woods, although tight security has been guarding the Old Port Cove Marina for more than a week.

And for days now, we've been poring over the details of Tiger Woods' mysterious late-night car accident. The pictures we've seen are of the golfer's house in Isleworth, a gated luxury complex in Florida. The owner of Isleworth is... Joe Lewis.

Woods' relationship with Lewis is extremely close. The very private superstar has described the 72-year-old East Ender (Lewis's first home as a child was over the Roman Arms in Bow, and he still speaks with a Cockney Cockney Bow Bells.

Each year, Woods plays in the Tavistock Cup The Tavistock Cup presented by The Citigroup Private Bank is a unique team event that pits the touring golf professional members of Isleworth Golf & Country Club verses their counterparts at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club. , a team competition centred on Lewis's two developments at Orlando: Isleworth and Lake Nona. Lewis is a keen, 14 handicap, golfer and he plays regularly with Woods, who is also a neighbour in Isleworth (Lewis's mansion there is modelled on the clubhouse of Augusta National, where the US Masters is held, except it's bigger. He has other houses dotted round the world, including his main home at Lyford Cay Lyford Cay is a private gated community located on the western tip of New Providence island in the Bahamas. Located within this community is the Lyford Cay Club. Both were founded in the 1950's by prominent Canadian businessman E.P.Taylor.  in the Bahamas).

When Tiger drops round for a heart to heart with his older friend, he can take in the Picassos, Chagalls and Miros that adorn the Lewis walls. According to according to prep.

1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.

2. In keeping with: according to instructions.

3.  Forbes magazine, Lewis is currently worth $2.5 billion. But the City consensus is that his fortune is much greater. In addition to Isleworth and Lake Nona, his Tavistock Group is developing the Albany resort in the Bahamas with Woods and Ernie Els, and Harmony Cove in Jamaica.

He's got 50,000 acres of Patagonia.

He holds distribution rights to Puma sportswear, Vans trainers, Gottex swimwear and Bristol cars. Tavistock has Spurs and Slavia Prague football teams. It's got restaurant chains across America.

At Lake Nona, Lewis is building Medical City, a vast combined hospitalresearch-science park in conjunction with the University of Central Florida “UCF” redirects here. For other uses, see UCF (disambiguation).
UCF is a member institution of the State University System of Florida. UCF was founded in 1963 as Florida Technological University with the goal of providing highly trained personnel to support the Kennedy . His father died of cancer, and the cancer centre, the Charles Lewis Institute, is named after him and run by Joe's daughter Vivienne (he's married to Jane and they have two children). The centre's aim, in typically direct fashion, is "to use every available resource to defeat cancer".

In all, Lewis is reckoned to have controlling stakes in 170 companies around the world. And, while he's managing all that he still plays the currency markets, taking enormous positions from the purpose-built, round-the-clock dealing room at Lyford Cay.

Small wonder that in the City, the Boxer (so-called because of the similarity of his name to that of the late US champion Joe Louis) is regarded with awe. But he's not infallible. He lost an estimated $800 million on a punt on Bear Stearns -- building a 9% stake in the Wall Street bank just as the banking market turned. Bear Stearns' subsequent demise made him one of the biggest individual losers in the financial crisis.

He prefers to stay firmly out of the limelight. He doesn't court personal publicity and is always accompanied by bodyguards and tight security. His reticence, of course, merely adds to his mystique.

The family pub was bombed on the first night of the Blitz. After that, his father ran a cafe. At 15, Joe left grammar school to join him, working as a waiter for [pounds sterling]6 a week (he would lug (1) (Linux Users Group) A formal or informal organization of Linux users who gather together virtually or in person to exchange information and resources.

Lewis worked his way up through catering. His first venture was the Tavistock Banqueting Rooms, hence the use of the Tavistock name today for his group of businesses. Then came the Northumberland Grand, to which he gave a Scottish tartan theme. Spotting an opening, he created a new industry for London, the fancy dress restaurant aimed at tourists.

In quick order, he opened the Beefeater beefeater

He started souvenir shops as well, in the West End. He laid on buses to take the tourists from the shops to his restaurants.

He had the tourist trade -- or at least the tackier aspect of it -- sewn up. Then, almost 30 years ago, after enduring the mid-1970s property crash, he sold the lot. He pocketed [pounds sterling]30 million and moved to the Bahamas as a tax exile.

THE Bahamian establishment did not greet him with open arms: his first attempt to join the Lyford Cay Club on Nassau, where he lived, ended in failure. His response was to build a [pounds sterling]15 million mansion next door to the club that is grander than the club itself, with smarter facilities and better tennis courts. Needless to say, he became a member.

Being a rich tax exile is one thing; Lewis has since joined the world's super-rich. How he managed that leap, from the geezer who made a mint in London restaurants to multi-billionaire is not clear.

It's true, he is an obsessive and instinctive moneymaker. So there was never any prospect of him, at barely 40, sitting back and doing nothing. He was able though to use the cash he had acquired to stunning effect, plundering the overnight currency markets and wagering vast amounts on the forward price of the dollar, the mark or the yen.

Exactly how he did it -- and where he acquired the specialist knowledge (his wits would only have got him so far) have never been explained. He isn't saying. A lot of his success, he says, is simply down to "being in the right place at the right time". But no detail is forthcoming.

"Joe is fundamentally a gambler, and now he's playing in the world's biggest casino with no limits," is how an associate put it -- without saying how he did it.

Overvaluation may result from an emotional buying spurt, which inflates the market price of the stock or from a deterioration in a  and would fall as Britain tried to align it with the European currencies.

Sterling collapsed and the Government was forced to pump in billions as they withdrew it from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism. Soros is thought to have made $1 billion; Lewis may have made a similar amount. He later landed another huge windfall, betting against the Mexican peso.

Lewis plays his cards close and so do his friends, such as McManus and Magnier (McManus has been referred to as Lewis's protege). They and their pals are known as The Boys -- and are feared for their daring strokes and their rebellious refusal to bow to convention. They frequently pay lip-service to advisers, preferring to take decisions themselves.

At Mitchells & Butlers, Lewis has 23% of the shares, and the Irish racing pair have 17.5%. M&B suspects they're acting in concert and are trying to acquire control by stealth -- hence the sacking of the four directors it believes were representing Lewis and his friends. But these are not people who give up that easily. M&B has definitely not seen the last of them.

Tiger Woods sets sail for Bahamas

Article from: The Courier-Mail

December 23, 2009 12:00am

TIGER Woods is reportedly yachting to the Bahamas for the Christmas holidays to escape the sex scandal firestorm while his wife Elin is said to be heading back to Sweden for Christmas with her family.

Woods, who turns 34 next week, launched his yacht Privacy from Palm Beach for the Bahamas at the weekend, with People magazine quoting an unidentified friend as saying that the golf star faced a deeply unhappy time ahead.

"He's devastated at everything he has lost," the magazine quoted a source.

"He will go through some dark times. It's going to be a lonely Christmas for him."

        * Gallery: Most shocking sex scandals
        * Pictures: Tiger's mistresses
        * Gallery: Famous femmes fatale
        * In pictures: Tiger Woods and wife Elin 

Both People and the Palm Beach Post reported the Bahamas as the supposed destination for Woods's yacht.

Woods has admitted cheating on wife Elin and at least 14 women, one for every major golf crown he has won, have claimed to have had affairs with the world's first billionaire sportsman.

Sponsors have backed away from Woods and comedians have made him the punchline for jokes.

Woods has put his golf career on hold indefinitely to work on his personal woes.

People also reported that Elin Woods, a Swedish model whom Woods married in 2004, will take the couple's two children with her to Sweden. Celebrity website TMZ reported Elin would not immediately move to divorce Woods but said she has been especially upset by the sheer number of affairs by her husband and two particularly painful relationships.

She was reportedly most upset about a three-year relationship Woods had with one woman and that he was with another woman while she herself was pregnant.

People also reported that Tiger's Thai-born mother, Kultida Woods, was "hurt, angry and disappointed" by her son, according to an unnamed source.

"She wants to know how he could do this to his family," People reported that the source said. "She loves him and will support him through anything but she needs some time to work through this. It was devastating to her.

"She likes Elin, adores her grandchildren. She's worried about them. She doesn't want to see them hurt."

Possible avenues for Woods making a return to the public were also reported.

Former tennis great Boris Becker has said he sympathised with Tiger Woods, who is taking an indefinite break from golf after admitting to infidelities.

According to the Bild newspaper, the German said during a taping of the Beckmann TV show to air on Monday that he was surprised by the "dimensions and frequency" of Woods' alleged affairs.

Tiger Woods and Rachel Uchitel are 'still an item'

Article from: Agence France-Presse

December 23, 2009 09:54am

TIGER Woods and a New York showclub host have resumed their relationship, says a report which insists the scandal-plagued golfer is still sleeping with Rachel Uchitel.

In Touch magazine reported on its website on Tuesday that Woods, who turns 34 next week, has been seeing Uchitel, 34, in Florida near where his yacht ``Privacy'' is docked.

Other reports say Tiger is heading to the Bahamas for Christmas while his scandal-fatigued wife is returning to Sweden.

The magazine, quoting an unnamed friend of Uchitel, reported Woods is still involved in a sexual relationship with Uchitel, who was in the same Melbourne hotel as Woods when he was there for the Australian Masters last month.

``They have been sleeping together the entire time since the scandal broke,'' the source told In Touch. ``They hooked up in a condo she has been staying at in Palm Beach.

``She's madly in love with him and she believes that he loves her as well.''

It was a tabloid report about Uchitel's relationship with Woods two days before the crash that set the stage for the firestorm which has followed.

Tiger Woods and Rachel Uchitel are 'still an item'

Article from: Agence France-Presse

December 23, 2009 09:54am

TIGER Woods and a New York showclub host have resumed their relationship, says a report which insists the scandal-plagued golfer is still sleeping with Rachel Uchitel.

In Touch magazine reported on its website on Tuesday that Woods, who turns 34 next week, has been seeing Uchitel, 34, in Florida near where his yacht ``Privacy'' is docked.

Other reports say Tiger is heading to the Bahamas for Christmas while his scandal-fatigued wife is returning to Sweden.

The magazine, quoting an unnamed friend of Uchitel, reported Woods is still involved in a sexual relationship with Uchitel, who was in the same Melbourne hotel as Woods when he was there for the Australian Masters last month.

``They have been sleeping together the entire time since the scandal broke,'' the source told In Touch. ``They hooked up in a condo she has been staying at in Palm Beach.

``She's madly in love with him and she believes that he loves her as well.''

It was a tabloid report about Uchitel's relationship with Woods two days before the crash that set the stage for the firestorm which has followed.

Elin Nordegren Persuades Tiger Woods to go to Rehab

Atlanta, GA 12/22/2009 07:56 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)

 

Elin Nordegren has reportedly persuaded Tiger Woods to enter rehab for sex addiction. Sources say the model issued Woods an ultimatum – enter rehab or get a divorce.

“Elin gave Tiger an ultimatum — seek treatment or forget all about winning her back,” a source said. “Rehab is at the top of the list of things he must do.”

Woods, 33, will reportedly enter a rehab clinic in Arizona after Christmas. Reports of divorce surfaced after Woods admitted to marital infidelity. He is accused of having affairs with 10 women.

Tiger Woods Scandal Cost Shareholders up to $12 Billion

December 28, 2009

Shareholders of Nike, Gatorade and other Tiger Woods sponsors lost a collective $5 to $12 billion in the wake of the scandal involving his extramarital affairs, according to a new study by researchers at the University of California, Davis.

The losses are separate from – and potentially much larger than – damage to Woods’ own earnings.

“Total shareholder losses may exceed several decades’ worth of Tiger Woods’ personal endorsement income,” said Victor Stango, a professor of economics at the UC Davis Graduate School of Management and co-author of the study.

With fellow UC Davis economics professor Christopher Knittel, Stango looked at stock market returns for the 13 trading days that fell between Nov. 27, the date of the car crash that ignited the Woods’ scandal, and Dec. 17, a week after the golf great announced his indefinite leave from the sport.

To assess shareholder losses, the economists compared returns for Woods’ sponsors during this period to those of both the total stock market and of each sponsor’s closest competitor.

Knittel and Stango also reviewed returns for four years before the car accident to determine how each sponsor’s market performance normally correlates with that of the total market and of competitor firms.

The study focused on nine sponsors for which stock prices are available: Accenture; American Express; AT&T; Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf (Electronic Arts); Gillette (Proctor and Gamble); Nike; Gatorade (PepsiCo); TLC Laser Eye Centers; and Golf Digest (News Corp.).

Overall, Knittel and Stango concluded that the scandal reduced shareholder value in the sponsor companies by 2.3 percent, or about $12 billion.

“(This) pattern of losses is unlikely to stem from ordinary day-to-day variation in their stock prices,” the researchers wrote.

Investors in the three sports-related companies (Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf, Gatorade, and Nike) fared the worst, the study found. They experienced a 4.3-percent scandal-generated drop in stock value, equivalent to about $6 billion.

On the other hand, Accenture, a global management consulting firm, experienced no ill effects following the accident.

“Economic theory would predict this,” Knittel said. “For Tiger Woods, having a firm like Accenture as a sponsor probably does not enhance the overall value of the Tiger brand very much, giving Woods a lot of bargaining power when negotiating that deal. If the company therefore ends up paying Woods something close to its extra profit from his endorsement, it isn’t much worse off without him than with him.

“However, Nike and other premier sports-related sponsors are special for an athlete like Tiger Woods. They are themselves powerful brands that add value to Tiger’s brand and create other financial opportunities for him. This gives a premier sports sponsor the bargaining power to capture some of the profits generated by an endorsement deal with Woods – so that if the Tiger brand is tarnished, those profits may decline. Our study measures that decline.”

The pace of losses had slowed by Dec. 11, the day Woods announced his leave from golf, Knittel and Stango found. But as late as Dec. 17, shareholder had yet to reverse their losses.

“Our findings speak to a larger question of general interest in the business and academic communities: Does celebrity sponsorship have any impact on a firm’s bottom line?” Stango said.

“Our analysis makes clear that while having a celebrity of Tiger Woods’ stature as an endorser has undeniable upside, the downside risk is substantial too.”

Before the scandal, Woods earned about $100 million a year in endorsement income, more than any other athlete.

Cookie,

Rush Limbaugh once said, Watch your behavior because you never know who's watching...I am paraphasing his comment,

I haven't listened to Rush in years, but, I do remember some of his wisdom. We used to be told "God is watching you," now

the world is watching everyone through camera's, still, God is still watching, too! Perhaps if Tiger believed in the good Lord

instead of Buda, he may have been aware that his behavior was important.

seahorse~  There are good and bad people, whether they follow Buddha or they believe in God. I don't think you should blame Tiger Wood's poor behavior because he is Buddhist.  I'm not here to take either side, just to point out that it's all about choices.  There are good and bad in any religion/organization.  For example, what about the priests and other men of the cloth that have sexually abused little children for years and it got covered up?  They believe in God, and they had teachings, but still they did wrong.  It's all about choices, imo.  I don't think it's right to slam Buddhism because Tiger Woods  has been such a philanderer.  I don't want to get into a big religious discussion here, but I try to be fair and I don't think what you've posted is fair.  JMHO

Tiger Woods turns 34 tomorrow. It's time he became a man at last


December 29, 2009



The world No.1 must ditch his acolytes and take responsibility for his troubles, writes Sally Jenkins.

The first thing Tiger Woods needs to do if he wants to remake himself is dump all the enablers. The so-called mentors who taught him how to play rent-a-hostess in Las Vegas. The fawners who laughed at his crude jokes. The apologists who conspired to create such a towering phony.

There are a lot of questions surrounding Woods, from how many women to how long his indefinite leave from golf will last, but most of them are just side issues.

The question that really matters is this: When will Woods become a man? ''Let's please give the kid a break,'' said Mark Steinberg, Woods's agent, recently. Now, Steinberg is a nice guy who obviously cares about Woods. But his client is about to turn 34 years old.

There is a pattern to the comments coming from Woods's friends. A pattern of excuse-making and denial, a continual reinforcing of the idea that he has a princely exemption from ordinary obligations, such as, say, growing up. Or honouring his vows while his wife is pregnant.

The implicit understanding in these statements is that Woods is a victim of public life, persecuted by celebrity. The scandal that has engulfed him is less his fault than that of the tabloid and internet press, who have violated his privacy.

Woods himself has invoked ''privacy'' time and again in his statements. But he and his overprotective pals are trying to sell us secrecy as privacy. He has a right to privacy, but what he did was lead a secret life, and that's what the tabloids are preying on. A violation of privacy is merely embarrassing. It's the violation of his secrecy that's destroyed his public persona. The reason the story has been so engulfing is the sheer size of the gap between Woods's public image and his secret conduct.

Looking back, it's easy to see how Woods arrived at this point. He has never dealt particularly straightforwardly with his failings. The first sign of trouble was that infamous article in GQ in 1997 by Charles Pierce, a portrait of a chilly, entitled prince who complained about photo sessions and uttered a stream of vulgarities. Instead of confessing to tastelessness and bad judgment, Woods deflected responsibility. It wasn't his fault; it was Pierce's, for quoting him. ''It's no secret that I'm 21 years old and that I'm naive about the motives of certain ambitious writers,'' he said then.

The Woods who has emerged in the past few weeks, in surreptitious texts and statements, doesn't seem to have matured much since. He seems to have simply graduated from lewd jokes to lewd behaviour.

If Woods deserves some sympathy, and he does, it's because no one around him was able to help him do it before now. His identity from his formative years onward has been wrapped up in outward display. It must have been exhausting to carry around such a large pasteboard image. The act made him rich, but it never won a tournament, which was the thing he really cared about. It's a harsh judge who doesn't suspect that Woods's infidelities are more than just narcissism, but an expression of unhappiness.

But as a long line of other child prodigies can tell Woods, genius isn't a free gift. It comes with obligations and penalties, a lifelong struggle for balance. Those who fare best with it figure out how to grow up even when everyone around them would keep them juveniles, and tell them how wonderful they are.

Andre Agassi and Chris Evert are two who come to mind. Both made their peace with their robbed childhoods and found a kind of authenticity within their public identities - especially once they stopped trying to project invincibility.

Who knows if this is true or not?  This is an INTERESTING read:) 



http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/abraham/detail??blogid=95&entry_id=54248


snip...

When Tiger returned home around 11:30 - 12 that night, Elin confronted him about the text message in the phone, and the started a heated discussion to its regards.  According to what I was told, there was more "incriminating evidence" than just the text message (i.e. photos).

Tiger tried to play it off to Elin by telling her she was reading too much in to it, and did not know the story, etc.  Tiger went upstairs to chance into his gym shorts and t-shirt, came back down, and Elin confronted him again; to which Tiger gave the same story.

Tiger sat down in a chair in the living room, and Elin sat acorss from him urging Tiger to just come clean.  Tiger stuck to his guns and denied everything.  At one point Tiger turned away to look at the TV, and as he turned back, Elin hit him on the right side of the face with the head of a 9 - iron.

When she struck Tiger, she put a huge gash in the right side of his face next to his nose (causing his nose to bruise some), and virtually knocking two of his upper teeth out, and breaking the bone on the upper right side. Tiger ran scared as hell out of the house (which is why he had on no shoes) with Elin swinging the golf club throughout the hallway to the garage (i.e causing the severe damage which has been reported).

Tiger hopped in the Escalade and tried to leave; and as we know Elin knocked out the windows in the Escalade.  When Tiger crashed, Elin panicked and was not sure what to tell the police (which is why there are two conflicting stories from her).

When this happened.  Elin immediately called Mark Steinberg to tell him what happened, and Mark told Elin to tell him what hospital they were going to, and he would meet them there. 



 

Tiger Woods and IMG's Mark Steinberg
Tiger is transported to the hospital with Elin in the ambulance, and as they arrive Mark is there waiting for them. The people from the hospital and the doctors take Tiger in for X-Rays etc to check out the damage caused. The doctors tell Mark there is not much they can do to repair the teeth and the gash, but the doctor knows a cosmetic dentist and plastic surgeon in Phoenix who will make Tiger look as if nothing happened.

Tiger tells Mark to get the jet ready and "lets head to Phoenix to get this done."  Friday after Tiger is released from the hospital, he does not return home.  He and Mark board the plane for Phoenix.  If you remember, FHP (Florida Highway Patrol) kept showing up at Isleworth to talk to TIger, and was told by another FL attorney (who Tiger hired for PR reasons) Tiger was not ready to talk.  (That person is Orlando Lawyer Mark LeJane)

Well now we know why... he was in Phoenix, and did not arrive back in Orlando until either late last Wednesday night or early Thursday morning. The surgeries were more intense than what they had originally planned, which meant Tiger was in PHX longer than he should have been.

Upon arriving back in Orlando, Tiger and Elin have been in intense marriage counseling sessions (up to 6 to 7 hours a day) every day!  Both Tiger and Elin have told the counselors they love each other, and want to make the marriage work.

The reports you are reading on TMZ and RadarOnline are about 30 percent accurate at best according to Mark. 

In regards to Tiger's boat being in Palm Beach this week, along with Rachel; that part is true.  However, Tiger is not on the boat, and is not in Palm Beach; and Rachel is not on the boat.  Her parents live 6 blocks from where the boat is, but that is it.

Tiger has not returned to his house at Isleworth since the day of the accident except for the therapy sessions. IMG has enlisted the assistance of one of its most recognized sports figures, and Tiger has taken up residence in his neighborhood; Bay Hill.

IMG contacted Arnold Palmer because of the high regard in which Tiger holds Arnold. Arnold has agreed, and IMG has said if anyone can get through to Tiger, Arnold may be the only person who can, based on his public persona when he was at the height of his game as well.

The moving trucks being shown on TMZ and RadarOnline are moving out pictures and furniture which was damaged during their Thanksgiving Day argument; not of her moving out. Yes, Elin has retained a divorce attorney (Sorrell Troupe), but has not filed any papers, and as of yesterday had no intention on doing so.

Tiger has not made any public appearances or statements due to the surgery and plastic surgery he had in PHX. It will be about another month if not more before he gets in front of a camera.  Yes, Tiger is hitting golf balls late at night at Bay Hill out of their teaching center (which is equipped with lights). 

That is as up to date as I have........

My reason for posting this, separate from the idea that it makes sense (if we were to see Tiger Woods before his facial injuries lessened it could put Elin in legal trouble) and has a number of players - people involved - in the right place, is my anger with how some in media, particularly HLN's Nancy Grace, have played "fast and loose" with information regarding Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren. Yes, Grace herself has taken care to use terms like "alleged" and "reportedly" as have I, but she never corrects her guests and then slips and says that Elin's in Sweden without even making a qualifying statement.

Stay tuned.

Report: Tiger Gave Wife $300M For Christmas

Posted: 12:33 pm EST January 4, 2010

Comment On This Story ››
ORLANDO, Fla. -- A report in a British newspaper says Tiger Woods' wife Elin is telling people her husband gave her $300 million dollars for Christmas.

The report says the money is all part of her plan to maintain her and her kids' happiness and comfort during a divorce.

Elin's friends say she's determined to split from her pro-golfer husband in the wake of recent revelations that Tiger has had a number of affairs during their marriage.

Hi Cookie,

I am so happy with Brandi's, Christmas stocking, I want to stay it in all year long. "Christmas through the year":)

Your outfit is glorious, I am sorry I am repeating.

Brit suggested that TW turn to Christianity,maybe,because of the 'Ten Commandment's"? As we all know one of the ten
commandments is not to commit adultry. I hate to say this,but, nothing would help Tiger because of his immaturity.

I don't think if the Angel of the Lord appeared to Tiger, that he would change his way's.

I  guess no girl looked at Tiger twice until he became a millionaire, then he looked good to them.

To address the growling, a mod corrected me at one point and mentioned to the effect that there are good and bad people in the world, religion doesn't play a responsibility to decisions, I am paraphasing.


300 Million dollars for Elin?  THAT ISN'T ENOUGH MONEY, HE RUINED HER "GOOD FAITH" IN PEOPLE.




Brit Hume: Tiger Woods Should 'Turn to the Christian Faith'

Posted: 01/4/10 Filed Under:Religion,

 "Fox Fox anchor Brit Hume suggested that Tiger Woods should trade his Buddhist faith for Christianity[/b] if he wants to make a personal comback. When host Chris Wallace asked the show's roundtable to predict the biggest sports story of 2010, Hume said:

"Tiger Woods will recover as a golfer. Whether he can recover as a person I think is a very open question, and it's a tragic situation for him. I think he's lost his family, it's not clear to me if he'll be able to have a relationship with his children, but the Tiger Woods that emerges once the news value dies out of this scandal -- the extent to which he can recover -- seems to me to depend on his faith. He's said to be a Buddhist; I don't think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith. So my message to Tiger would be, 'Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world.'"

After a moment of awkward silence, fellow panelist Bill Kristol quipped, "Well, Brit's concerned about Tiger's soul, which is admirable, but I just made a more straightforward sports prediction, which was that he'll come back and win the Masters."

I agree with you, Cookie, This female is ruthless, no shame.  Do you think she wants some money to stay silent?

Women have come a long way, yet, these Female's do not use any of God given talent's for the good of mankind.

Fake 'Unfaithful' Tiger Woods Gatorade labels showing up in stores
(Video Available at Link in Article)
Kyle Clark of KUSA for NBC News Channel:

DENVER -- Shoppers at some Denver-area stores are finding Tiger Woods showing up on fake drink labels.

Someone has been putting fake labels on Gatorade bottles that show Tiger Woods and his wife Elin, and the word "Unfaithful."

The fake labels have been spotted at three different stores so far. There's no word where the fake labels have come from or how many there are.

Gatorade recently announced they were discontinuing the Tiger Woods drink, but said the decision had already been made before his scandal.

In a statement, Gatorade says they did not produce the labels, but they are aware of the tampering. The company says they are working with the retailers involved and other officials to investigate the incidents.

Colorado man arrested for 'unfaithful' Tiger Woods labels

Federal agents today arrested a Denver-area man accused of placing pictures of Tiger Woods and his wife on Tropical-Mango Gatorade bottles and putting them on store shelves.

The man told a federal agent that he considered his altered sports drinks bottles, which also said “Unfaithful,” to be something akin to Andy Warhol's works of art, according to a court affidavit.

Federal authorities apparently considered his work more akin to several felonies.

GM says no more free rides for Tiger Woods

Associated Press
Jan. 13, 2010, 4:33PM

NEW YORK — General Motors Co. says an agreement with Tiger Woods that allowed the fallen golf star to have free access to its vehicles is over.

Woods’ endorsement contract with GM’s Buick brand ended in 2008, but an arrangement remained in place that allowed him to keep several GM loaner vehicles. A spokesman says the arrangement ended on Dec. 31.

Woods has lost a host of endorsement contracts since the Nov. 27 car crash outside his Florida home. The accident triggered allegations of marital infidelity that led him to take a break from professional golf, though the GM spokesman says the vehicle arrangement had been previously scheduled to end on Dec. 31.

USA Today reported GM’s decision in a blog post Tuesday.

Tiger Woods update: report states Tiger at sex rehab in Mississippi



http://primewriter.com/news-1246-headlines/?cat=4


Extra TV, Radar Online, and Us Weekly have all reported that Tiger Woods is undergoing sexual rehabilitation at the Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services. While sources state that he is in the facility, other reports have said that Elin has not been part of his therapy.

While Tiger remains hidden from view, many are asking when he will make a public appearance. There is great speculation that Tiger will emerge from the shadows in April for the next PGA tournament. The thought of Tiger Woods returning to golf has left many wondering if he would need to make a public announcement or just show up and play. The reaction has been divided with some saying that Tiger is a golf pro and doesn’t need to give an explanation, while others say he must deal with the scandal before getting back on the golf course.

New details on night of Tiger Woods crash

http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/tiger_beat/what_really_happened_the_night_tiger_5F1SVAR0bgTrGy0RgKBo7O

10:25 AM, January 25, 2010 ι POST STAFF REPORT
 
Embattled golf great Tiger Woods was doped up on sleeping pills the night he crashed his car -- fleeing his Florida home in a hurry after his club-wielding wife chased him out after discovering he was having a steamy affair with another woman.

The revelations of what occured the day after Thanksgiving -- when Tiger's life came undone -- show the golfer and his wife in a frantic state just hours after she learned that Woods had been cheating on her.

Before the crash, sources told The Daily Beast in a report posted today that Woods, 34, gave his wife, Elin, a head's up that the National Enquirer was going to run a story claiming that he had an affair with Manhattan club manager Rachel Uchitel.

Woods swore to her that the story was false and that he had met Uchitel a few times at social outings. Elin, however, remained suspicious, sources told The Daily Beast.

Woods was able to convince Uchitel to talk to his wife. The two had a 30-minute chat, where Uchitel was able to convince Elin that her relationship with Tiger was purely platonic, the Web site reported.

On Thanksgiving Day, Elin learned some of the Enquirer’s specifics about the affair and an argument took place. Sources told The Daily Beast that Woods took Ambien to fall asleep once the argument ended.

While asleep, Elin looked through Woods' cellphone and found Uchitel’s number, discovering a damning text message that read: "You are the only one I've loved."

That's when Elin went berserk. At about 1 a.m., she began texting Uchitel -- pretending to be Woods -- and wrote, "I miss you," and asked, "When are we seeing each other again?"

Uchitel texted back. The Daily Beast reported that Elin called Uchitel, who answered thinking it was Woods.

"Oh f----!" a stunned Uchitel blurted out before hanging up, the Web site reported.

Elin then woke a disoriented Woods up. The Daily Beast reported that Elin began punching him in the chest and arms, then finally chased him out of the house wielding a golf club.

Shoeless, Woods ran into his car and hit the gas, careening off a fire hydrant and then smashing into a nearby tree.

Elin -- who has two children with Woods, Sam, 2, and Charlie, 10 months -- remains furious at Woods.

In the meantime, Woods is staying at the Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services clinic in Hattiesburg, Miss. The Daily Beast reported that Elin visited Woods at the facility this past weekend as she mulls over whether or not to divorce him.

TIGER WOODS: I HATE MYSELF!


Just a day before his beautiful 30-year-old wife Elin arrived in Mississippi to spend five days in counseling with her husband, the 34-year-old golfer fell apart, crying like a baby in front of fellow patients, say sources.

"I hate myself for getting in this situation!"

He doesn't hate himself for getting in this situation.  He hates himself for getting caught.  This therapy isn't going to help him one bit.

When this story first broke out he was quoted as saying he is not comfortable enough moneywise in his career.  Now we all know why he said that.  He was paying everyone off.  We only know half of who he has paid off over the years.

While I am at it, the one disturbing thing is that his best friend was helping him hide his secret mistresses.  He even accompanied her on her trip to Australia.  How can his wife look at this POS.  If she is going to get back with her husband the first thing I would say is he will never be allowed in our home.

Next thing we will hear is that he fired his best friend from the company he runs and his friend will write a tell all book.

I agree with Nut.  He makes me sick.

Golf Writers to Boycott Woods’s Talk
By LARRY DORMAN
Published: February 18, 2010
Objecting to the ground rules for Friday’s scripted and highly managed live television statement by Tiger Woods, the Golf Writers Association of America announced a boycott of the event Thursday. The ground rules allowed close proximity to Woods for three pool reporters who would agree not to ask him questions.
he association was offered three spots in the room in the clubhouse at the T.P.C. at Sawgrass, where Woods planned to issue his first public statement in nearly three months. The board of directors for the 950-member organization of golf writers, editors and broadcasters voted overwhelmingly to boycott the event. Three spots were also given to reporters from The Associated Press, Reuters and Bloomberg News Service. Those organizations accepted the spots.

A number of other credentialed reporters will be a mile away in a ballroom at the Marriott Sawgrass, outside the east gate of the PGA Tour complex, watching Woods on television. They will not be permitted inside the gates, nor can they ask questions of Woods.

The president of the G.W.A.A., Vartan Kupelian, said, “To limit the ability of journalists to attend, listen, see and question Woods goes against the grain of everything we believe.”

Tiger says he's 'deeply sorry' for selfish actions

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Tiger Woods publicly apologized Friday without revealing any more details about his infidelity, and told a global audience he’s not sure when he’ll play golf again.

“I was unfaithful. I had affairs. I cheated. What I did was not acceptable,” said Woods, looking composed and speaking in a steady voice. His wife, Elin, was not with him.

As for coming back to the PGA Tour, the planet’s best golfer said: “I do plan to return to golf one day. I just don’t know when that day will be. I don’t rule out it will be this year.”

Woods talked for 13½ minutes from the clubhouse at the TPC Sawgrass, home of the PGA Tour. About 40 people were in the room, including his mother, with an untold number watching around the world as he made his public confession.

When Woods finished, he hugged his mother and she whispered in his ear.

“I said ‘I’m so proud of you. Never think you stand alone. Mom will always be there for you and I love you,’” Kultida Woods said.

The whole event carried an air of formality, as Woods, dressed in a suit with an open-collared dress shirt, spoke from behind a podium backed by a blue curtain.

Admitting he felt he “deserved to enjoy the temptations” that came with his fabulous success, Woods said he is solely responsible for his actions. “I am deeply sorry for my irresponsible and selfish behavior,” Woods said.

Woods said he was in treatment for 45 days and will return for more therapy, adding he has more work to do to resolve his personal problems.

Woods had not talked in public since his traffic accident Nov. 27 triggered shocking revelations about Woods’ serial infidelity.

As for his marriage, he said: “Every one of these questions and answers is a matter between Elin and me, issues between a husband and wife.”

In Sweden, Elin’s father, Thomas Nordegren, said he saw Woods’ confession.

“I watched it but I have nothing to say right now,” Nordegren told The Associated Press.

Elin’s mother, Barbro Holmberg, declined to comment on Woods’ apology, through her spokeswoman Eva Malmborg.

Friday’s event was tightly controlled, with only a few journalists allowed to watch Woods live. The televised confession became a major television event with the networks breaking in to show it.

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos called the speech “one of the most remarkable public apologies ever by a public figure.”

No other PGA Tour player could command this kind of attention.

Woods is one of the most recognized athletes in the world. Television ratings double when he is in contention, which has happened a lot on his way to winning 71 times on the PGA Tour and 14 majors, four short of the record held by Jack Nicklaus.

And no other athlete had such a spectacular fall. Accenture and AT&T have ended their endorsement contracts with him, and Woods has become the butt of jokes on everything from late shows to Disney performances.

“I think that since Day 1, people that know him and people that don’t know him, what I’ve heard from most people is mainly, I mean there’s some anger in some corners, but mainly it is a sense of sadness,” PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem said. “He’s an American hero. And he’s had his issues.”

“At the end of the day, he’s a human being. We all make mistakes,” he said. “My personal reaction was that his comments were heartfelt. He clearly recognizes that there has been serious impact to a wide range of individuals and organizations.”

Woods’ statement came during the Match Play Championship, sponsored by Accenture.

Ernie Els was among players who were upset to learn that Woods had chosen the week of a World Golf Championship for a public appearance that was sure to take attention away from the tournament. “It’s selfish,” Els told Golfweek magazine.

Former champion Nick Faldo, whose own personal life has been subject to media scrutiny over the years, watched Woods and told the Golf Channel: “It has left a big question mark: When is he going to return? We have had the apology but as golfers we are back at square one.”

The companies that have stuck most closely by Woods, Nike Inc. and Electronic Arts Inc., reiterated their support.

“Tiger has apologized and made his position clear. Nike fully supports him and his family. We look forward to him returning to golf,” the company said in a statement.

EA Sports president Peter Moore said in a statement: “It was good to see Tiger address the public today, and we’re supportive of his focus toward family and rebuilding his life.”

Woods’ appearance drew reaction from all corners.

From the Olympics, American Alpine skier Julia Mancuso posted on Twitter: “do we think this is coming from the heart or the paper! come on Tiger! give us some reality here.”

Veronica Siwik-Daniels, one of Woods’ alleged mistresses and a former pornographic performer, watched the event with her attorney in a Los Angeles radio studio. She said she wants an apology for the unwanted attention the scandal has brought her.

“I really feel I deserve to look at him in person face to face in the eyes because I did not deserve this,” she said.

Lori Moffett/Associaed PressTiger Woods makes a statement at the Sawgrass Players Club in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla, Friday.Oh, the cynicism of it all.

However "heartfelt" Tiger Woods' televised mea culpa on Friday over his infidelity may have been -- that was the word used to describe it by PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem -- much of the public, at least in the blogosphere, didn't seem to be buying it.

"Blah! Blah! Blah! Sponsors, please come back!! I'll be good from now on!! NOT!" posted Sherry on TMZ.com.

"Tiger Woods Buries Himself in Recovery Cliches," sniffed Doree Shafrir at Gawker.com.

The golf legend's appearance at 11 a.m. was carried live on the three major broadcast networks, on cable channels and streamed on the Internet, in what was perhaps the most widely covered public apology since then-President Bill Clinton's admission of an "inappropriate relationship" with White House intern Monica Lewinsky more than a decade ago.

In his nearly 15-minute statement, Mr. Woods, whose serial extramarital relationships came to light after a November car accident outside his Florida home, apologized for hurting his wife, his family, his foundation and his business partners. He also denied reports that his wife, Elin, struck him with a golf club after she discovered his affairs.

"There has never been an episode of domestic violence in our marriage. Ever," he said. His wife was not present at his public appearance. ::MonkeyGavel::

Mr. Woods also said he planned to return to golf one day, "I just don't know when that day will be."

Media experts were divided over how far his public apology will go toward repairing not only his personal but his professional life.

"What I expected to see today was humility. What I saw was arrogance," said Rick Cerrone, former New York Yankees public relations manager, who declared it a "public relations disaster" on CNN afterward. snip...

Tiger still playing by his own rules

By Bill Simmons
ESPN.com


Say this much about Tiger: People give a crap. I don't know anyone who didn't watch this morning's speech. There isn't another athlete -- not one -- who could have made the world stop from 11 to 11:15 like Tiger Woods did.

And with that, we're done with the positives. I thought it was a borderline train wreck. It amazes me that Tiger learned little to nothing from the past two months. The control freak whose life slipped out of control dipped right back into control-freak mode, reading a prepared speech in front of a hand-selected audience of people, taking no questions, talking in clichés and only occasionally seeming human. Everything about it seemed staged. Everything. When the main camera broke down at the nine-minute mark and Tiger had to be shown from the side, I half-expected to see that he was plugged in to the wall.

Whatever. I was going to leave it alone. After all, that had to have been a humiliating experience for the guy. But listening to talking heads praise that ludicrous speech pushed me over the edge. Someone actually said, "It came from the heart." It did? Was it C3PO's heart? I thought it seemed like an automated response from Microsoft's new "Cheater's Confession" program.

Let's look at the facts. Tiger cheats on his wife relentlessly and brazenly. She finds out somehow. This leads to him crashing his car in the wee hours of Thanksgiving night. Scandal. Cover-up. More women come out. And more. And more. Tiger disappears like Jimmy Hoffa. Elin stops wearing her ring. Tiger stays hidden. Rumors swirl. By hiding, by not saying anything, Tiger enables every rumor and negative story to gain steam. When he sneaks away to a sex rehab clinic for 45 days, neither Tiger or his representatives acknowledge rumors that he's there. He emerges with a staged jogging photo op; one day later, three other photos of Tiger hitting golf balls, even seeming jovial in one of them, hit the wires. And then, today's prepared remarks. That came from the heart. Just as long as you didn't ask a follow-up question.

When we first saw the room in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., it looked like the set of a "Saturday Night Live" episode: small podium, blue curtain, some heads. The camera panned the crowd, revealing that there apparently had been an emergency casting call for somber white people in blazers. (Why didn't I get an invite? I own a blazer! I could have looked somber!) At 11:01 a.m. ET, Tiger emerged from the back, and I remember thinking that it would have been awesome if he were naked from the waist down.

He spoke for the next 13 and a half minutes. He spoke … like this. There was … no emotion … in his words. His face … was blank … and empty. Part of me … felt bad … for him. There were … a couple of moments … when it seemed … like … he was trying … to shed a tear … or have his voice catch … just for effect. You get … the idea.

People wondered why Tiger opted for a prepared speech instead of the traditional move for disgraced celebrities: sitting down for an interview with "20/20" or "Primetime." You saw why as he was reading his statement. Tiger isn't capable of discussing this stuff with depth or emotion. He can't ad-lib about his feelings and never could. It would have been awful. Like so many other mega-celebrities who became famous too early, it's as though they never properly develop the part of their brain that controls this question: "How can I win over the person I'm talking to right now?" When you become famous too early, you don't have to win over anyone. You just have to exist. You become constantly wary. You start watching what you say around people you don't know. You measure any potential friend or business partner by one question: "What do they want from me?"

That's one reason he ended up in this mess. The other was simpler: Normal rules don't apply to celebrities. This is what bothered me so much about Tiger entering sex rehab. Look, if he really does have a problem, fine. But if Tiger needs rehab, then so does half of the professional sports world. In Miami for the Super Bowl two weekends ago, I saw one famous athlete creeping on more girls than Ronnie, Pauly D and The Situation combined. In the era of cell phones and texts, post-Tiger scandal, you would have thought he'd be more careful. It became the running joke of the weekend. Uh-oh, there he is again! Still creeping! But that's what these guys do. If we learned anything from the Tiger scandal, it's that the celebrity debauchery circuit was much more complex than we ever imagined.

In "A Few Good Men," one of my favorite scenes is when Kevin Bacon is cross-examining the guy from "ER" and asks him why "Code Red" isn't in the rulebook, then Tom Cruise redirects and points out that the mess hall isn't in there, either. Remember that? So how do you know how to get to the mess hall? You just follow the crowd. That's the answer. And that's what Tiger did this decade. He followed the crowd. He just got caught.

Should he have been contrite? Of course. But just be honest about it. My least favorite part of the speech: "But still, I know I have bitterly disappointed all of you. I have made you question who I am and how I could have done the things I did. I'm embarrassed that I have put you in this position. For all that I have done, I am so sorry. I have a lot to atone for."

Big mistake. And plastic. I would have played the "I became a celebrity too soon, I had too many people kissing my butt too soon, I had everything handed to me, I began to think I was invincible and that my behavior had no consequences" card right here. Hell, I even would have compared myself to a child actor or a musician who becomes too famous too young. If the goal of the speech was to make people realize why he did what he did and seem contrite, why not try to connect with us instead of impersonating the little girl from "Small Wonder"? Arrrrrgh.

Tiger was properly hard on himself at times. He said "I'm deeply sorry" and "I'm sorry." He called his behavior "irresponsible and selfish." He called himself "selfish" and "foolish." There was a weird moment when he said that "Elin and I have started the process of discussing the damage caused by my behavior. As Elin pointed out to me, my real apology to her will not come in the form of words. It will come from my behavior over time." Then he said, "However, what we say to each other will remain between the two of us." Well, except for that part about behavior over time.

The best part of the speech: "My behavior has caused considerable worry to my business partners, to everyone involved in my foundation, including my staff, board of directors, sponsors and, most importantly, the young students we reach. Our work is more important than ever. Thirteen years ago, my dad and I envisioned helping young people achieve their dreams through education. This work remains unchanged and will continue to grow. From the Learning Center students in Southern California to the Earl Woods scholars in Washington, D.C., millions of kids have changed their lives and I am dedicated to making sure that continues."

Had I written the speech for him, I would have started there, and actually, I would have started with an anecdote about Tiger's father and the man's expectations for his son. We found out about Tiger through Earl. We grew attached to Tiger through Earl. They had one of the best father/son relationships in sports. Earl was the one person who made Tiger seem like anything other than a golf-ball-cracking cyborg. Like so many others, I wondered if Tiger lost his way after Earl's death, no different than Jordan riding a Double-A bus in 1994. If the goal of this news conference was to get people to feel sorry for him and give him another chance, then Tiger should have gone there. It wouldn't have been disingenuous. It would have been true. And it would have made him seem more human.

Letting down a foundation that he started with his late father … wasn't that a bigger deal than letting down Nike or Notah Begay III? Wasn't that the underrated collateral damage here? Only a few athletes have a chance to make a real difference in the community; Tiger has the chance, but his behavior made it more difficult. Anyone can get married, anyone can have kids, anyone can be good at their job. Not everyone can change the lives of tens of thousands of people.

That wasn't the only tactical mistake Tiger made. He went on attack about Thanksgiving night, saying, "Some people have speculated that Elin somehow hurt or attacked me on Thanksgiving night. It angers me that people would fabricate a story like that."

To be fair, Tiger, you crashed your car while leaving your house at 2:30 a.m., you weren't wearing shoes, your neighbors found you asleep on the sidewalk and your wife holding a golf club, the back windows of your cars were smashed in, the accident wasn't reported for 12 hours and then you disappeared for 10 weeks. You never told us what happened. You got terrible advice from your advisors and opened the door for people to imagine crazy scenarios for what happened that night. Don't blame us.

He followed with this: "Elin never hit me that night or any other night. There has never been an episode of domestic violence in our marriage, ever. Elin has shown enormous grace and poise throughout this ordeal. Elin deserves praise, not blame." Let's hope this is true, because if it's not, then nobody will ever be able to trust anything Tiger Woods says again.

The worst part of the speech: "I was unfaithful. I had affairs, I cheated. What I did is not acceptable. And I am the only person to blame. I stopped living by the core values that I was taught to believe in. I knew my actions were wrong, but I convinced myself that normal rules didn't apply. I never thought about who I was hurting. Instead, I thought only about myself. I ran straight through the boundaries that a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled. Thanks to money and fame, I didn't have far -- I didn't have to go far to find them. I was wrong, I was foolish. I don't get to play by different rules."

It's hard to explain how insufferable this was live, because on paper, it doesn't seem so bad. But I had a number of problems with it, including …

• He came off like Schwarzenegger in "Terminator 2."

• His premise was false. Really famous people DO get to play by different rules. Sorry. We enable them.

• I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me has to rank among the worst excuses in the history of mankind. Christ, Tiger, you're pretending that you put real thought into this? You thought you DESERVED to enjoy all the temptations around you? That's your explanation? Trust me, you should have gone with "I got married too soon, I should have sowed my oats first, I didn't, I'm an ass." Much better. We could relate to that. Instead, you came off like a horny robot. Again, I think you should fire everyone at IMG and start over. They are doing you damage.

Back to the speech. I really liked this part: "It's not what you achieve in life that matters, it's what you overcome. Achievements on the golf course are only part of setting an example. Character and decency are what really count. Parents used to point at me as a role model for their kids. I owe all those families a special apology. I want to say to them that I am truly sorry."

Fantastic. That should have been the second point in his speech, right after he talked about how he felt bad about ruining his charity foundation and letting down his late father, and just before he talked about the damage to his wife and kids. I thought it was fascinating that he apologized to his business partners well before he apologized to those families. Whatever.

Another part I liked: When he begged the paparazzi to leave his wife and kids alone. Sorry, they're always going to bug your wife, Tiger. She married a public figure. But the kids … yes. Agreed. Kids should always be off-limits. You could have gone further here. Anyone with kids would have felt bad for you.

Things tailed off near the end when he mentioned being "raised a Buddhist" and "actively practiced my faith from childhood until I drifted away from it in recent years." I would say so. As Tiger said, "Buddhism teaches that a creation of things outside ourselves causes an unhappy and pointless search for security. It teaches me to stop following every impulse and to learn restraint. Obviously, I lost track of what I was taught." That's an understatement. If this is true, he's one of the worst Buddhists of all time.

He talked about needing more treatment, and about "the importance of looking at my spiritual life and keeping in balance with my professional life." (This sounded like it was written through one of those Russian-to-English translators.) He thought he needed "to regain my balance and be centered, so I can save the things that are most important to me: My marriage and my children." (Better late than never.) He said he planned to return to golf one day, but "I just don't know when that day will be." (That groan you heard came from everyone who couldn't have been more excited about the 2010 Masters, including me.)

By this point, I was making the same face that an airplane passenger makes in the first few seconds after an unclaimed fart. Tiger mercifully ended the proceedings by saying, "Finally … there are many people in this room … and there are many people at home … who believed in me. Today … I want to ask for your help. I ask you … to find room in your heart … to one day … believe in me again. Thank you."

He seemed to get choked up, but we couldn't tell because the main camera broke and he had been shot from the left side for about four minutes. The conspiracy theorist in me wondered if the broken camera was part of the plan. Either way, I left the speech angry -- not at the speech itself, but by the fact that someone who said, "I was wrong, I was foolish. I don't get to play by different rules" continued to think he could play by different rules.

I want to come clean. Just under my terms. And you can't ask me anything.

In a few weeks, or a few months, Tiger will start hitting golf balls and everything will be fine again. I just want to get there. For now, we apparently have to put up with a few more weeks (and possibly months) of the Tiger Woods Rehabilitation Tour. There will be more rehab, more staged photos, more secrecy and eventually a carefully planned interview with the right person who won't be a threat to ask him anything interesting. Wake me up when he plays a tournament. And if you want to watch a clip of the speech, just watch the first 10 seconds that started with the curtain. It's still there.
