Tiger Woods hits a tee shot on the first hole during a practice round for the 2010 Masters golf tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia on Monday, and RadarOnline.com has the photos.

PHOTOS: Tiger Tees Off Monday In Augusta

RadarOnline.com will stream live Woods' first full-fledged news conference starting at 2pm EST Monday at Augusta during which he will, no likely, face tough and embarrassing questions about the cheating scandal that has forever tarnished his image as golf’s golden boy.

Woods first addressed the scandal 45 days ago -- reading a contrite 13 minute statement in front of family, friends and close associates -- but the golfing great was widely criticized because the carefully-staged media event did not allow for reporters to ask any questions.

In subsequent interviews with the Golfing Channel and ESPN on March 21st, Woods limited the interviews to five minutes, which did not allow for in depth questioning.

In preparation for his highly-anticipated return to golf at the Masters, Woods showed up in Augusta on Sunday, and played nine holes of golf. His wife Elin was not with him, as RadarOnline.com was first to report. Elin has returned home to the Orlando-area.

On-site practice for the Masters tournament began Monday, while official play begins this Thursday.

Why are sports writers, bloggers and readers still discussing Tiger Woods. I think most of of the sports blogs listed on ****.dozensports.com are covering Tiger's comeback prematurely.

This is what we've all been waiting to see...a man trying to be for others and caring for his family. There is no more story here. To keep going after him...or trying to catch his wife with the kids out somewhere is invasive. Move along....

where did the press confererence thread go? nypost: 2:23 p.m. -- Confirms that his wife Elin Nordegren will not be at The Masters this week. He has not yet said her name once. He looks angry at the mention of her name. Ouch!

I was surprised by his lack of anger in the conference...even when the idiots kept asking him the same thing over and over again. I was touched by his remorse at missing Charlie's first birthday. He's owning it.....

Why does he need to give a press conference?

HE is protecting himself against bad press, meaning he's controlling the crowd & bodyguards have been trained to lookout for hecklers or any of his ex-lovers. I don't have any personal respect for him. Such a pansy arse!
