Elin Nordegren isn't the only one talking to People in its brand new issue.

Tiger Woods released a statement to the magazine which included it as an addendum to its exclusive interview with Elin.

The statement reads, "This is a very painful, personal and private time for our family. Throughout this entire time, Elin has shown unwavering concern and support for our children. She is a wonderful mother. I know that the two of us will do everything we can to help our children adjust to this new family situation.

"We both cherish the time we can spend with Sam and Charlie. Whether it's taking Sam to school or hitting balls with Charlie on the range, nothing gives me more enjoyment than these simple pleasures. We have two special kids, and I'm going to enjoy every minute with them.

"Personally, I am learning to balance family and golf. My children come first and always will, but I also appreciate golf more than ever. I understand how important the fans and the game are to me. I know how lucky I am to do what I do for a living, and I am deeply grateful for everyone who has supported me."

As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, Woods has only reluctantly opened up to the media in the wake of the scandal.

The embattled athlete first publicly acknowledged his affairs with a vague statement on his Web site, then with a staged media event, and eventually a full-fledged news conference with reporters and media outlets grilling the golfer prior to the Masters Tournament.

"His children come first" is such a laugh. Still he's trying to capitalize on what he has left of his family. He is nauseating!

This interview (her first and LAST) confirms she operates on a much different level than the former mistresses. I wish her and the kids the best. I would hate to be in her shoes with my private life up for ongoing public scrutiny.

Everyone has a right to thier opinion but dont assume to know what someone else is going through in thier private life unless and until you've walked a mile in their shoes.

What a joke this guy has become !!!! Really his kids always come first. Did he think about them when he was chasing every floozy in sight ... Don't think so . He can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned. No respect for such a dirty loser.

Viva, Tigress.. Here we go again. Tiger and Elin had peacefully dissolved their marriage and looking forward to move on. Their children are really important to them. Elin said she would forgive Tiger why can't you.
