The golfing great recently admitted that his personal struggles - his broken marriage to Elin Nordegren, lost endorsements, and the humiliation caused by his cadre of mistresses going public - are adding to his recent professional lapses.

"Outside the ropes there are certainly still distractions. It is what it is," Woods said at a press conference on Wednesday. "I think everyone has had distractions in their lives [but] I think that my life out here on tour is becoming more normalized."
At his more recent tournament, the AT&T National in Philadelphia, Woods was out of contention by the end of the first round.
"I just putted awful, really," he said. "It was a very frustrating day on the greens, especially how good I was driving it."

Woods hopes that people will give him some slack while he tries to get his game back together. “You're not always going to go through life perfect. No one does," he said.
“When you make a mistake, step up to the plate and take ownership of it."

Tiger Gave Rachel $10 million to keep hush about something and it’s got Tigers game all messed up. Some are saying it’s the Poly Max Extremes he used on the golf course. But now he can’t use them because they are watching him like a hawk~!

Spurned, bitter, ugly, delusional women post on this site. $750 million. I don't think so. In 12 months no one will care about Elin. The press will be filled with Tiger success stories.

Don't know your idea about the female posters is true, but you are right it will be Elin who? Tiger's success on the course will be the news. Finally. self righteous name callers gone, too. Vaya con Dios, WVgrannyi

Songbird, "Self righteous name callers" will continue to disparage Tiger regardless of what he does. Perhaps they should all take a look at themselves in the mirror.

In 12 months I won't care at all if Mr Woody wins again or not ...... The world doesn't revolve around a stupid guy who can hit a golf ball with a stick ... So put things in perspective bc you are beyond ridiculous.

LOSING 750 MILLION, IN DIVORCE SETTLEMENT, IS WHAT IS COMING BETWEEN HIM AND HIS GOLF GAME...

Frustrated??? Well, Tiger brought it all unto himself! Tiger needs to find peace within himself, if this is possible, for causing so much pain to his wife and destroying his marriage and family for something so worthless!!!

TMZ is reporting that Elin is supposed to get 100 million. That number is much much more believeable than what they've been printing for months. Costly mistakes, but hopefully they can both move on and start over
