Tiger woods is big brand and there is no doubt about it. Biggest sports brand and one of most followed celebrity in the world. After his extra Martial affair came out of closet tiger woods sold like hot cakes in the media.
Every 12 hours a new story about another lady coming out with 'I too had affair' came up in media. It was big news and big business for media. One of Online Giant admitted that it was bigger opportunity to make money ,bigger than sad demise of Michael Jackson. We can't place eye catching ads close to obituary said the spokesperson.
Fallen hero always is news , that too if it has to do with infidelity!!!!!!!. Now tiger woods is going to have press conference breaking his silence.
One of good India news channel ,the one which I follow on twitter has hour long program aired daily which discusses the most important news for entire hours. It expert panel discussion with two people having entirely opposite views , while one having neutral view. Anchors roles is to facilitate the discussion. It is one of award winning show.
Today in twitter they asked ='Tiger woods to break his silence , please write in'. Now what should an ordinary Indian write about it. I replied -'What can I write about it?. He didn't become silent by asking me'.
Yes tiger woods sells but do we need one hour long discussion in country which is miles and miles away from wood's country. In country which is obsessed with own sports icons and in a huge country where naxals, corruption , politics , prise rises are issues which are to be dealt with?
But media can't be blamed. Infidelity sells and so does celebs. After all media is business and they want to make money out of everything that can be sold , irrespective of what difference does that news make to common people's life.
Recently a question was asked to one of leading journalist of India about his interview of rakhi sawant which is being aired thrice a month on channel ,he is associated with. He promptly replied that after interviewing 500 , whose who people of India and International dignitaries , Rakhi Sawant's interview received one of most TRPs for him!!!!!!!
Now this person has interviewed Indian Ministers , Army Chief , Scientists and every one who directly make difference to people's life but Rakhi Sawant is big brand then this people says the TRP!!!!!!!!!!!
Media is like restaurant , they would serve the food which customers want.

The Real Tiger Woods Golf Swing
A lot of people have been asking for a long time, "why is Tiger (Woods) so good in his game? How can Tiger be consistent on every Tour? What does Tiger do differently with his game to make him the success that he is at golf?" and the list of questions go on and on. Some people theorize that it's all about his putting game, while some people say that it's the power of his drives, some people say he has got the strength of a bull and some opine that it is his golf swing.
These people may be right, but then again they may not. Depends on how you look at it and what kind of golfer you are that would dictate what you will say. But in reality most of us already know the answer but tend to say different things because we can't really admit to the fact that Tiger Woods has the best darn swing in the world today.
The reason why I say it's the best is because of his natural ability to use his dexterity, flexibility and strength in one fluid motion to create his tour winning golf swings. Knowing this let's break down the famous Tiger Woods swing in to 4 key elements of the full swing motion. These are 4 key elements of Tiger Woods?wing:
1. At the very start of his swing. Woods uses his amazing flexibility to reach far back (notice that when he extends his swing backwards it reaches farther than most golfers on any tour, this is one of the main advantages of Woods ), extending his range of motion at the same time as keeping his rotary torso in a straight line over his right leg.
2. Once he releases the swing forward, Woods has already built up maximum clubhead velocity. This is achieved by rapidly turning his torso and pressing his right leg forward toward the swing. Throughout the full motion of the swing, Woods wastes little or no energy by keeping a straight line above the ball. Aside from the velocity and the force from his shoulders and arms, he uses his upper body strength in the swing as he pushes forward.
3. Woods drives the clubhead through the ball (maximum clubhead-ball contact is needed so the chance of slicing or chopping the ball is avoided), using the force from his hips, shoulders and wrists he concentrates impact force and makes a very high initial ball speed. Within 2 feet off the tee and the club the ball is now traveling at speeds that reaches around 180 miles per hour ?is ball speed is up to 20 mph faster than the average tour pro.
4. One of the most over looked elements and factors in the golf swing is a good follow through. A follow through is the after impact motion that makes a full motion achieve fluidity. By this time, Woods allows the club head's momentum to lengthen his follow-through (this means that the force of the swing is kept at the maximum level from the start of the swing, any decrease in speed will make the follow through rough) far around his back, completing a long and smooth clubhead rotation.
And that is the secret to the championship winning golf swing of Tiger Woods.

Inside story of Tiger Woods' Car Crash---Text Message to Mistress
A new inside story of Tiger Woods' car crash has been unveiled. Three Mistress, who does stir this hanky panky and provoke the golf stars enven all over the world. to pay attention to the World Number one
Tigers Woods is facing fresh claims of extramarital hanky panky as reports emerged today of how his wife caught him texting his alleged mistress, sparking the violent row that led to his car crash.
Swedish swimwear model Elin Nordegren allegedly grabbed Woods' phone and called nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel to confront her, celebrity website TMZ reports.
According to media reports, a furious Ms Nordegren began arguing with Woods and broke the star's phone.
She is then alleged to have chased him with a golf club, smashing up the foyer of the couple's Florida mansion, according to reports.
It is rumoured Ms Uchitel and her representatives were in discussions with Woods and his management as recently as yesterday about a possible "cash-for-silence" deal.
Ms Uchitel, who has hired celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred to represent her, yesterday cancelled a press conference where she was expected to
make a statement about her relationship with Woods.
Ms Uchitel, 33, who stayed at Crown Casino at the same time as Woods during his Melbourne visit, maintains she did not have an affair with the world's richest sportsman.
Woods now faces one of the biggest celebrity divorce payouts in history. Us Weekly said sources put the prenuptial agreement signed in 2004
by Woods and Ms Nordegren - who met Woods while she working as a nanny for Swedish golfer Jesper Parnevik - at $US300 million
Following the allegations that Woods had affairs with Ms Uchitel and LA cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs(Photo enclosed), a third woman has been linked to the star.
Las Vegas nightclub promoter Kalika Moquin is believed to have met Woods in 2006, but she is only admitting to a "professional" relationship
with the golfer.
"Sometimes I'll deal with celebrities in my job on a day-to-day basis just to touch base with people," the 27-year-old told Us Magazine.
"But it's completely untrue that there's anything more than a professional 'How are you doing? Are you enjoying your time in Vegas?'
conversation (with Tiger)."
The fallout from the controversy is is spreading, with John Ziegler, the pastor of the "First Church of Tiger Woods"
- announcing that he will dissolve the organisation because of the golfer's "personal sins."
The church, whose home page has now been rechristened "The Damnation of Tiger Woods,"was launched by radio host Ziegler in 1996 to
"celebrate the emergence of the "true messiah'."

the Three Misstresses of Tiger Woods
New rumors and reports continue to emerge in the wake of Tiger Woods' apology for unspecified "transgressions." A batch of new pictures of cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs has appeared online, and her ex-boyfriend says he and Grubbs made a sex tape.let us see the three mistresses of Tiger Woods.
Another alleged mistress, Rachel Uchitel planed to make a statement about her relationship with Tiger Woods through her attorney at a press conference.then cancelled the conference?it is said that Uchitel has five months-worth of sext messages with Woods that she wants to turn into "a fortune." Apparently $1 million qualifies.
A Jaimee Grubbs sex tape would be even hotter...much hotter than the Tiger Woods affairs text messages and the Tiger Woods voicemail presented to Us Magazine by Ms. Jaimee Grubbs.
An ex-boyfriend of Jaimee Grubbs has come forward and claimed that the two made a sex tape and took several nude photographs while they were together. Before you zoom over to Google to try to find the Jaimee Grubbs sex tape video, take a deep breath and read my next sentence: the couple destroyed the tape. Yes, you heard me right - Jaimee Grubbs' ex boyfriend destroyed the Jaimee Grubbs sex tape video. Had he known how high profile this Las Vegas cocktail waitress would become, I have a suspicion that he would have kept the video.
Following?the third woman it is said that had slept with Tiger Woods come to public. Kalika Moquin?the insider tells Life & Style, "They've hooked up a bunch of times. Tiger told Kalika that married life isn't all it's built up to be. He said he wasn't happy in his marriage or his home life and that there was just so much pressure on him."
Whether there are the fourth woman linked to Tiger Woods?we are waiting.

Tiger Woods will Make a Special Christmas
Since Tiger Woods’ alleged affair events get hot, more and more pranksters come up with this unique ideas of spreading the Tiger Woods Christmas picture, Christmas card, and even Christmas song.
If you happened to search it in the internet, someone made fun of the Woods situation and controversy and used the image editor and photoshopped the picture just to create a fake Christmas Card of Tiger Woods and Elin Woods. Now it was already circulated in the internet.
The Tiger Woods Christmas card show the couple standing together, looking blissfully in harmony and though Tiger Woods’ face is covered with a lot of stiches and on of his eyes is swollen cut, his smile reveals some broken teeth and gaps in between them. Yes it is quite difficult to imagine who had inflicted those injuries on him as Elin Norgreden, who is standing beside him close enough to kiss him with a hockey stick on her hand. Not only this, some website also have come up with Tiger Woods Christmas songs in a remix way.
The star golfer seems to be in more serious trouble when these alleged misstress came out after his car accident last week. Reports are saying that if Tiger Woods fail to save his marriage, he is compelled to pay $300 million to his wife Elin Norgegren. And if this happens, it would be considered as the most expensive celebrity divorce in history.
Fun
For decades, two heroic statues, one male and one female, faced each other in a city park, until one day an angel came down from heaven.
"You've been such exemplary statues," he announced to them, "That I'm going to give you a special gift. I'm going to bring you both to life for thirty minutes, in which you can do anything you want." And with a clap of his hands, the angel brought the statues to life.
The two approached each other a bit shyly, but soon dashed for the bushes, from which shortly emerged a good deal of giggling, laughter, and shaking of branches. Fifteen minutes later, the two statues emerged from the bushes, wide grins on their faces.
"You still have fifteen more minutes," said the angel, winking at them.
Grinning even more widely the female statue turned to the male statue and said, "Great! Only this time you hold the pigeon down and I'll crap on it's head."

Tiger Woods Ambulance
Watch the Tiger Woods Ambulance Video here!
Tiger Woods' mother-in-law was rushed early this morning from the golfer's home to the same Florida hospital where he was taken after a car accident two weeks ago, according to an official at Health Central Hospital in Ocoee. Ambulance transports a woman from Tiger Woods' house to nearby hospital, as shown in the Tiger Woods Ambulance video.
Barbro Holmberg, 57, a Swedish politician, was taken to the hospital by paramedics called to the golfer's Windermere home shortly after 2:36 a.m. Holmberg complained of stomach pains and her condition is not life threatening, hospital spokesman Dan Yates said.

"She's in a wing that helps protect her privacy," he said, adding that she's in stable condition.
Holmberg and her other daughter, Josefin Nordegren, twin sister of Tiger Woods' wife Elin, reportedly came to the United States and were staying at the Woods' home in the wake of a host of allegations that the world's No. 1 golfer had been engaged in a series of extramarital affairs with as many as nine women.
The Tiger Woods ambulance was followed by a black Cadillac Escalade, similar to the car Woods was driving when he crashed into a fire hydrant the Friday after Thanksgiving, setting of a firestorm of tabloid reports about domestic strife and his many apparent mistresses.
Witnesses said the Escalade was driven by an attractive blonde who bore similarities to Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren.
The 911 call comes after recent reports that Nordegren may have moved out and purchased a home in Sweden.
Swedish newspapers today reported Woods' wife bought a $2 million home dubbed Faglaro Mansion on a small, secluded island reachable by ferry from Stockholm.
Holmberg is a Social Democrat politician and the former minister for migration and asylum policy.

Tiger Woods Indefinite Break From Golf!
<p>I'm sure you've seen it all over T.V. by now. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/news-and-society-articles/tiger-woods-indefinite-break-from-golf-1572038.html">Tiger Woods indefinite break</a> from golf, that is. But is it really happening?</p>
<p>Well, Tiger has officially came out and made that statement that he will be taking an indefinite break, but let's really think about it for a minute.</p>
<p>There have been several big-name professionals that have made the same claim in the past before Tiger.</p>
<p>Think of Brett Favre and Michael Jordan.</p>
<p>They both came out and made public statements that they were retiring. But they also flip-flopped on the decision several times. They came and went out of their respective sports a few times before making a permanent move.</p>
<p>So, do you really think the great Tiger Woods will be a different situation?</p>
<p>He's been under a lot of pressure lately with golf and the recent news of his affair. So, he's probably just making this claim to get the heat off of his back that has been stirred up since he's been caught in his cheating spree.</p>
<p>Do you think Tiger Woods will really retire?</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sharecpa.com/link.php?aid=929&amp;linkid=N416&amp;web=1" title="YES">YES</a></p>
<p>or</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sharecpa.com/link.php?aid=929&amp;linkid=N416&amp;web=1" title="NO">NO</a></p>
<p>Answer by clicking on YES or NO. Answer, submit your email, and get a $1000 gift card!</p>
<p>So, with all that said, I really highly doubt that Tiger Woods will stick to his guns and actually retire. He is probably just stressed out and needs a little break. Don't we all sometimes?</p>
<p>I mean if they really does go on with his "indefinite break" I'd be really surprise. If anything it could just be a publicity stunt. We haven't heard any big, good news related to him lately so maybe he's just trying to mask the bad news with something better.</p>

Jaime Grubbs and Tiger Woods, An Affair to Remember?
Jaime Grubbs and Tiger Woods, an affair to remember? Many would say no but the sheer magnitude with which this story has grown to is crazy which leads many to believe it will stay on the world conscious for a long time to come! Many are left wondering why in the world would Tiger Woods risk everything for a cocktail waitress...a successful career in golf, a marriage to a beautiful woman and a family to be proud of.
This little discretion on the part of Jaime Grubbs and Tiger Woods has brought the world of golf to its knees and the world of celebrity gossip to the edge of its seat. Once regarded the prodigal son of golf, Tiger Woods like the boy Icarus who flew too close to the sun, has now fallen back to earth. A mere mortal among men...to shame!
The question begs to be asked...Will Tiger ever be able to recover from this farce? Will he ever golf again? Will he be able to reconcile with his wife and family? Only time will tell. Perhaps Tiger and regain the good graces of the golf gods and more importantly that of his family whom he has no doubt permanently scarred.
As for Jaime Grubbs, her 15 minutes of fame will most likely come to pass and she will no doubt fade into obscurity leaving only this affair in the footnote of sports and celebrity gossip. Jaime Grubbs and Tiger Woods will forever be remembered as the scandal that threatened to bring down a legend of golf, now time will tell if this prediction comes true.

AT&T won’t support Tiger Woods in 2010
Elin Nordegren will leave Tiger Woods, some advertisement with him had been stopped?some sponsor won’t support him again. Now another big sponsor will give up him.
Telecommunications giant AT&T issued a statement saying, "We are ending our sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods and wish him well in the future."
Accenture had earlier dropped Woods, and Gillette removed Woods from its advertising while stopping short of ending its sponsorship deal with Woods.
AT&T is the title sponsor of the PGA Tour event hosted by Woods, the AT&T National, which in 2010 takes place July 1-4. But AT&T's tournament sponsorship deal is with the PGA Tour, and the company's decision to end its sponsorship agreement with Woods is something separate from the tournament.
PGA Tour official Ty Votaw said that AT&T's sponsorship deal with the tournament runs through 2014, and that the Tiger Woods Foundation will continue as the primary charity of the tournament at least through the length of that contract. However, since Tiger is on leave from golf, Votaw said, Woods will not serve as tournament host in 2010.

Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods is ready to quit Golf to regain his wife’s trust. Tiger Woods has been going through a difficult phase of his life and he is ready to leave anything rather everything to save his relationship with his woman Elin Nordegren.
Tiger Woods showed his intentions to quit golf to secure his relationship with his wife.
The reports suggested that Elin Nordegren, the model and former nanny has given a very clear ultimatum to the great golfer in very clear words that quit golf or get divorced.
For last few weeks after Tiger’s SUV crash, the scandals were hitting Tiger like rocky rain. Everyday a new lady came up with a sex scandal with evidences, making Tiger Woods life more difficult.
The list of Tiger Woods alleged mistresses pinched Elin Nordegren the most; she was in great anger that caused Woods to lose a tooth. The reports were around that Elin Nordegren was arranging her separate residence. Elin Nordegren also called her mother for the moral and feminine support.
Current reports are emerging that Elin Nordegren still has a soft corner for Woods, she asked him to regain her trust because she don’t want to break up for the sake of her kids. She is taking the precautionary measures to avoid further mistresses in Woods’ life.
One of family friend told that they are on the track to rebuild their relationship but Woods’ has to sacrifice for that. He has to keep Elin Nordegren with him on the world tours for golf, if not he has to quit golf for sometime.
We are anticipating that Woods’ would out of the scene on golf grounds for quite some time as he is going to start the process to regain his trust for Elin Nordegren but no one is sure about more girls being entering in Woods Life.

Gatorade Abandoned Tiger Woods
A representative for the drink Gatorade, sold by PepsiCo Inc., confirmed late Friday that it had ended its relationship with the golfer Tiger Woods, who made a lengthy public apology last week for his infidelities.
"We no longer see a role for Tiger Woods in our marketing efforts and have ended our relationship," a Gatorade spokeswoman said. "We wish him all the best."
The spokeswoman said Gatorade would continue its relationship with the Tiger Woods Foundation.
She declined to say whether his contract was terminated early because of trouble with his public image.
Gatorade discontinued its Tiger Woods-brand drinks in November, a decision made before Woods' marital problems became known.
At the time, Gatorade stuck by him as a sponsor, but it too relented on Friday, becoming the third major endorsement the golfer has lost. AT&T Inc. and Accenture dropped Woods in the weeks following the tabloid frenzy of cheating allegations. Meanwhile, Nike corporation announced that, Nike is supportive of Tiger.
"We have been in discussions with Gatorade, and while we are disappointed they have decided to not continue with Tiger in their marketing plans, we appreciate their continued involvement with Tiger through his foundation," Woods' agent, Mark Steinberg of IMG, said in an e-mail.
The companies that have stuck most closely by Woods, Nike Inc. and Electronic Arts Inc. - which have invested specifically in his athleticism - reiterated their support last week when the golfer made his public apology.
Others, such as Procter & Gamble Co.'s Gillette and Swiss watch maker Tag Heuer, de-emphasized him in their marketing.
The CEO of Procter & Gamble said earlier this week that he doesn't know whether Woods will ever appear in another Gillette commercial, saying the company did not need the "distraction" of using him in its advertising.

The Not So Secret Tiger Wood’s Golf Swing
There is a question that is in the minds of most people who play golf and also enjoy watching it even if they do not play it themselves; “Why is Tiger Woods so good at golf? How come he is so consistent? In what way is he different that makes him stand out from the crowd?�? There are these and other questions. It is the considered opinion of some that it is the power of his drives, others feel that it is his end game and yet others say that it is his bullish strength and for some others it is the Tiger’s swing.
The beauty of the situation is that all of them may be right, yet all of them may be wrong also. It all depends on the individual and the kind of golfer that he personally is that is going to mould his opinion. Actually all of us know the exact reason for Tiger’s excellence in golf; it is just that we are not prepared to accept the simple fact the Tiger has the best, near perfect and proper golf swing.
The reason that it is the best is that Tiger has the natural ability to use his nimbleness, his litheness and his strength to execute his swings in one fluid motion and create a memorable line up of successes. Now that we know the reason for Tiger Woods’ success, let us analyse his swing and break it down into it component parts. On analysis, Woods’ swing can be seen to contain four key elements:
1. The main advantage that Tiger Woods has over other players of golf is that he is able to use his supple body to extend his swing far more backwards than most golfers on any tournament can. Thus he manages to extend the range of his motion while maintaining his torso aligned straight over his right leg.
2. Since the backswing extends far to the back, the length of the swing before contact with the ball is longer, and hence the club head gathers more momentum as it comes down during the downswing. This Tiger achieves by swiftly turning his torso with his right leg pressed forward towards the swing. The pivot is fast, more velocity to the club head. The swing is a perfect arc. No wasted movement hence no wasted energy. And in addition to the power from his arms and his shoulders, he uses the strength of his upper body to its maximum advantage.
3. Tiger Woods drives the club head dead centre and flat against the ball. No unnecessary twists, turns of the hip, the iron firmly gripped and perfectly balanced. Every bit of his concentration and his strength is focused on the club head with a total use of the force from his hips, his shoulders and his wrists. At the instant of impact the club head is travelling at a speed of more than nearly 125 miles per hour, 25 mph more than the average tour pro. The strike is so powerful that within 2’ of the tee, the ball is travelling at a velocity of 180 mph.
4. The last element of Tiger’s swing is the follow through. A good follow through keep the club head accelerating even after impact, for that momentary instant that the club head is still in contact with the ball, giving more momentum to the ball. Once the ball leaves the clubface there is nothing you can do. It is the culmination of all your body movements. No snapping of the wrists or any improper movements. The finish of the best, the near perfect and the proper golf swing on any course.
And that, gentlemen, is the swing of Tiger Woods. Nothing secret about it; every golfer knows it and has seen it. The problem is that they cannot replicate it. How did Tiger get this swing? He watched other golfers play, learnt from them and most of all, he practiced. Practice! Practice! Practice!

Elin Woods Saved Tiger Woods' Life From Car Accident
Tiger Woods' wife Elin Woods saved her husband's life from a car accident with a golf club.
The initial media reports that instantly spread around the globe sounded dire: Tiger Woods had been "seriously" hurt in a car accident early Friday and was hospitalized.
It turned out the superstar golfer's injuries, first reported by the Orlando Sentinel, weren't as dreadful as the word "serious" implied in the police report. But as additional details emerged, it appeared Woods certainly suffered more than a fender bender.
Woods, 33, was backing out of his driveway in the Isleworth community near Orlando, Fla., at 2:25 a.m. when he struck a fire hydrant and then hit a neighbor's tree, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
It was almost 12 hours before the police issued an accident report, and it is still unknown why Woods was out driving at that hour and much about the incident remains unclear.
After the first news reports about the accident, Woods' website in the afternoon issued a terse statement saying he was in "good condition," after being treated and released from Health Central Hospital in nearby Ocoee, Fla.
The Associated Press later Friday quoted a local police chief as saying Woods' wife, Elin, used a golf club to smash the back window to get Woods out of his 2009 Cadillac sports utility vehicle after she heard the accident and came outside.
Woods had cuts to his lips, blood in his mouth and was lying in the street, with his wife nearby, and was in and out of consciousness when officers arrived, Windermere Police Chief Daniel Saylor said. At one point Woods woke up and tried to get up but lost consciousness.
FHP Sgt. Kim Montes said troopers arrived at the Woods' home early Friday evening to talk to the golfer, and that his wife told them Woods was resting and asked them to return this morning, the Orlando Sentinel reported. The troopers agreed to do so.
The FHP's news release said alcohol was not considered a factor in the accident, and that the crash remained under investigation.
The airbags in Woods' SUV did not deploy, according to the FHP, and it was unknown whether Woods was wearing a seat belt.
Saylor said his responding officers did not hear anything about an alleged argument between Woods and his wife, according to AP.
"Right now we believe this is a traffic crash. We don't believe it is a domestic issue," Montes said.
But owing to the authorities' technical language in the case of accidents, the world was stunned with headlines of Woods' "serious" injury that appeared on media websites from Los Angeles to London, aired on television and arrived on fans' Blackberrys and mobile phones.
The news release listed the injuries as "serious" because patients' conditions are always classified that way if they are transported to a hospital, FHP spokesman Jorge Delahoz told the Orlando Sentinel.
The media frenzy the word "serious" ignited was "illustrative not only of Woods' global fame, but of the rapidity with which the media can spread news whether it is entirely accurate or not," said David Carter, executive director of USC's Sports Business Institute.
Woods, of course, is the world's No. 1 golfer. He has won 82 times worldwide and captured 14 major tournaments, and this year he also became the first athlete to reach the $1-billion mark in career earnings through prize money, endorsements and other income, Forbes magazine estimated.
Woods can make or break TV ratings simply by choosing to play in a tournament. He has a net worth of $600 million, according to Forbes.
While authorities "may characterize [the injuries] very technically," today's instant media communication "leads to banner headlines, which makes everybody wonder what the impact could be if, for any reason, he was to miss a series of tournaments," Carter said.
In fact, the accident occurred leading to next week's Chevron World Challenge, an 18-player tournament hosted by Woods at Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks.
The four-day tournament starts Thursday, and Woods is scheduled to hold a news conference there Tuesday.
Wood missed last year's tournament, which supports the Tiger Woods Foundation, because he was recovering from surgery on his left knee.
He was scheduled to rejoin the field this year, but Mark Steinberg, Woods' agent, told the Associated Press on Friday that he did not know if Woods still planned to play.
Woods won six times this season. Although he did not win a major tournament, he said he considered the year successful because he wasn't sure how his knee would respond after months of rehabilitation.

Tiger Woods Affair
As you may of noticed there has been a lot of talk about tiger woods cheating on his wife.This has caused a huge uproar and his marriage could be a steak if this is true.
The latest news in the Tiger Woods scandal is that nightclub executive Rachel Uchitel called off a press conference scheduled for 11:30 AM PST. TMZ.com reports that the reason is connected to an alleged phone conversation between Rachel Uchitel and Tiger woods and his management staff last night.Tiger woods affair
TMZ implies that the result was a deal to stop talking in exchange for money but that's not been confirmed as of this writing. Still, the simple suggestion of a payoff for silence will sully the already damaged image of The World's Best Golfer. But I believe his call may have had to do with the concern of sponsors like Nike and Cadillac, who are seeing the image of their brands harmed by the Tiger Woods scandal.
Rachel Uchitel is the first women connected to Tiger Woods affair rumors. After denying them, she was about to do what I predicted she was thinking of doing: talking.
Now Tiger wants the chatter to stop. I can't say I blame him but he has little control over this now that it's part of pop-culture.Tiger Woods affair
These revelations could tarnish the squeaky clean image that made Woods rich. He's raked in over a billion dollars, most of it from endorsements. So far his sponsors are sticking with him, but marketing experts say new deals may be a tough sell. Public relations experts say he should face the cameras sooner rather than later.

Elin Nordegren’s response to Tiger Woods
How about Elin Nordegren ? will she choose to divorce from Tiger Woods with Tiger Woods scandal?
It did not take long after Tiger Woods issued a public apology for unspecified "transgressions" that rumors began to swirl about the financial negotiations between Woods and his wife, Elin Nordegren Woods. First, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Woods was paying his wife "a hefty seven-figure amount" to stay with him. The article also said that a new prenuptial agreement is in the works.
Gerald Posner of the Daily Beast writes that Woods will likely soon pay his wife $5 million and that the prenup could ultimately fetch her $55 million after two years.
Other financial dealings have been rumored as well. One of Woods' alleged mistresses, Rachel Uchitel (PHOTOS), was reportedly scheduled to admit to having an affair with Woods today but it was canceled at the last moment, which coincided with a RadarOnline.com report that Woods' representatives offered Uchitel $1 million to remain silent.
It also remains unclear what will happen with Woods' two other alleged mistresses. Jaimee Grubbs (PHOTOS), who claims to have had a 31-month relationship with Woods, already released text messages and a voicemail purportedly from the golfer. She also may have made a sex tape with an ex-boyfriend.
Kalika Moquin, the other woman linked to Woods, denied rumors of an affair to UsMagazine.com

Tiger Woods' Rumoured Women
Less than two weeks after Tiger Woods' Thanksgiving weekend car crash outside his home, 10 women have been alleged to have had affairs with the married golf legend.
1.) Rachel Uchitel. The club hostess was the first of the women to be linked to Woods after the National Enquirer reported that she traveled to Australia to be with Woods during a golf tournament there. So far, she has denied the affair.
2.) Jamie Grubbs. The 24-year-old reality show contestant and cocktail waitress claims she carried on a 31-month-long affair with Woods until his crash last month. She offered a Woods voicemail to prove it.
3.) Kalika Moquin. The 27-year-old club manager from Las Vegas is reported to have had a brief sexual relationship with Woods. She would neither confirm nor deny the report.
4.) Cori Rist. The 31-year-old swimsuit model reportedly met Woods at a Manhattan club last year before they began a sexual relationship that led to Woods flying her out to various secret locations for hook-ups, and her introducing the golfer to her 7-year-old son.
5.) Jamie Jungers. The 26-year-old, who sold her story to a British newspaper, is a former employee of Trashy Girls Lingerie. She said she met Woods in Las Vegas.
6.) Mindy Lawton. The 33-year-old pancake house waitress from Orlando claims she was dumped by Woods in 2007. According to the Post, it was her affair with Woods that was caught on camera by the National Enquirer, when he was snapped dropping her off at her trailer park. The threatening news later led to a Woods Men’s Fitness cover in exchange for the magazine’s silence about the alleged affair, the New York Post reports.
7.) Holly Sampson. The 36-year-old from Los Angeles is a former porn star, who has starred in such films as “OMG, Stop Tickling Me�? and “Flying Solo 2.�? According to the Sun, she has neither confirmed nor denied her affair with Woods.
8.) Unidentified Alleged Mistress No. 8. A former cocktail waitress from Orlando, Fla. does want to reveal her identity yet, according to her attorney Michael O’Quinn. But this she has said: at the time the affair allegedly began, she was 20 years old and met Woods at the Roxy in Orlando, where she was a VIP server.

Below is Tiger Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegrene.
Formerly virtually unknown, swimsuit model/nanny Elin Nordegren's celebrity status went through the roof after news of her relationship with golfing superstar Tiger Woods was made public in 2002. The sexy Swede's hushed marriage to Woods made headlines in October 2004. Although Elin has kept the two children she has with Tiger relatively out of the spotlight and has kept a low profile herself, save for her appearances at golf tournaments, Elin Nordegren made headlines again in late November of 2009 after Tiger Woods had a suspicious car crash leaving the home the couple share in Florida. Isn’t she the most beautiful one among Tiger Woods’ women?

Tiger Woods will Suffer
After Tiger Woods confessed his infidelity in his private life and his marriage disturbance, does he can focus all his energy on his golf? It is impossible, according to Colin Montgomerie, European Ryder Cup captain.
Montgomerie, eight-time European number one, experienced divorce event in 2006 and could know the pressures for Tiger Woods will affect his performance.
Woods has taken an indefinite break from golf following a media storm that culminated in the world number one publicly admitting being unfaithful to his wife.
"It is absolutely impossible to play good golf (with all that going on)," said Montgomerie in an interview with Sky Sports.
"There was a reason why Tiger didn't win a major last year, the first year for a long time. We now understand possibly the reasons why.
"I can only speak for myself and say during a time like that you can just about make it to the next tee if you make a birdie or a par but with a bogey the world collapses around you," added the 46-year-old Briton.
Montgomerie said negative thoughts about his own private life were difficult to shrug off when he was going through turmoil.
"A round of golf is an emotional roller-coaster anyway," said the Scot. "I think it must have been similar for him.
"When you hit a shot and it goes left or right into the woods, immediately thoughts creep in during the long, two to three-minute walk to find the ball.
"It (the scandal) will impact on every tournament Tiger plays. Let's hope the tabloid press finish quickly and we get on supporting golf."
Montgomerie is one of the few top players to comment on the Woods situation since allegations about the 14-times major winner's private life surfaced after he was involved in a minor car accident outside his home in November.
"I think the mystique has gone," said the Ryder Cup skipper. "I think the mysterious nature of the guy has gone. He is suddenly, you hate to say, more normal now. Let's hope golf isn't damaged by that.
"There is no question there was an aura about Tiger Woods over this incredible record he has, not just in majors but in other world events.
"That wall has been split slightly and there are cracks. It gives us more opportunity to find ways of winning these events now and I am thinking of myself as well as my peers."
Montgomerie said golfers everywhere were appreciative of Woods's impact on the sport.
"I think it is like Arnold Palmer for the American tour in the past and Seve Ballesteros for us in Europe," he said. "We are playing for the money we are today because of those two players.
"With Tiger he became a global ambassador for golf, therefore the whole world of golf benefited from Tiger.
"We in Europe have benefited, as Asia has, as Australia has, as South Africa has, as America has. It is a great debt to him that we are playing and sponsorship is as strong as it is in golf right now."

Will Tiger Woods stay this rank?
It will not surprise you that Tiger Wood is No.1 in the Official World Golf Rankings, in recent weeks, there haven't been too many tournaments played, we wondering how long he can keep this. What may surprise you is how long he'll hold this rank.
In his column today, ESPN.com's Jason Sobel notes that "according to those who run the OWGR, if Tiger Woods continues his leave of absence into the summer, he likely won't lose his No. 1 status until June or July." There are six months from now and eight months from Tiger played a tournament last time.
Now, we all know that Tiger has put some distance between himself and the competition -- his ranking of 14.13 is nearly double second-place Phil Mickelson's 7.95, it is so high, and taking more than half a year off doesn't pull him down. Sobel thinks that's too much latitude to give a golfer, and I think that is right. It's stupid, like if one conference in college football didn't play a conference championship and so avoided the tough end-of-season test before skating into the bowls.
The World Ranking Points for each player are accumulated over a two year "rolling" period with the points awarded for each event maintained for a 13-week period to place additional emphasis on recent performances - ranking points are then reduced in equal decrements for the remaining 91 weeks of the two year Ranking period. Each player is then ranked according to his average points per tournament, which is determined by dividing his total number of points by the tournaments he has played over that two-year period. There is a minimum divisor of 40 tournaments over the two year ranking period and a maximum divisor of a player's last 60 events.
Mention of "divisor." That two-year provision seems to be the key point -- the idea is not to penalize a player too much for one brief bad patch. But as Sobel notes, by that standard you'd be including Tiger's two recent layoffs -- knee-induced and hydrant-induced -- and that by the middle of this season, assuming he didn't return, he'd have played only 19 events over the last two years. "Tiger Woods’ average points figure will drop each week he doesn't play and it will take until somewhere between the U.S. Open and Open Championship for his average to drop to where Phil Mickelson's currently is," the OWGR indicated. "If Mickelson plays well enough to maintain his current average and Woods doesn't play, then the No. 1 spot could change hands early July." And that's only if Phil continues to play well.
Some people say that Tiger is a wounded right now, that gave other golfers a big chance, and all the other golfers are gathering around, they want to bring him down. And when he was break, I'll bet he falls right on Rory Sabbatini.
