Well, I'm marking.
It turns out that there are major developments in the spiraling Tiger Woods saga. At TMZ, "Tiger Gets Order Blocking Nude Photos, Videos":
Tiger Woods' British lawyers have obtained a court order from the High Court in London, prohibiting British publications from publishing any nude photos and videos of Tiger Woods ... and TMZ has obtained copies of the documents ...
Plus, at the Sydney Morning Herald, "Time's Up: Tag Heuer Pulls Tiger Woods Advertising":
Swiss watchmaker Tag Heuer is removing placards of Tiger Woods from jewellery stores across Australia, but says the timing is unrelated to the champion golfer's recent transgressions.Plus, at the Los Angeles Times, "Tiger Woods' Sponsors Taking a Timeout."
Tag Heuer is one of Woods's major sponsors, and its move this week follows Woods's spectacular fall from grace after revelations of alleged extramarital affairs.
Woods endorses the company's "Link" range of watches, and was involved in the design of the high-end titanium "Professional Golf" watch.

Last week, in the wake of a mysterious car crash outside his Florida home, Woods admitted "transgressions" and said he had let his family down.
His refusal to talk even to police about the crash fuelled media speculation that he was escaping from his wife after she became enraged at reports he was secretly seeing New York nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel.
And at People Magazine, "Tiger's Wife: Inside Elin's Nightmare":
While more details surface about Tiger Woods's reported dalliances, the golf great's Swedish-born wife, Elin Nordegren, has yet to speak about the scandal or give any hint of her distress – beyond a frantic 911 call after her mother collapsed at Woods's Florida home Tuesday.And, New York Daily News, "Tiger Woods' Wife Elin Nordegren May Stay With Him for the Kids: Report."
A smart, athletic student who passed up the chance to study child psychology in Sweden to become a nanny in the U.S., Nordegren tried hard not to lose herself in her husband's fame. But everything changed after Woods’s Nov. 27 car crash. Since then, says a source inside Woods’s camp, the couple have discussed the full breadth of Woods's infidelities. "She knows everything," says the source.
I feel sorry for the guy in a way, but like Michael Jackson he got screwed up (no pun intended) by lack of a childhood and a warped self-image.
ReplyDeleteHe never seemed to have much of a personality, either- probably pretty insecure about women until he got rich. He came into where I worked once, everybody said he seemed kind of stupid and strange.
But he knows what he was doing was wrong, he lied to his wife and exposed her to diseases, etc... but he went and did it anyway.
Hard to pity him at this point tho, I'm glad to see him go down (pun also unintended)... he deserves it.
He can just retire and go buy an island stocked with chicks, anyway-
Tiger Woods main priority in life is clearly golf and always has been. If he was truly a family man, he wouldnt have behaved the way he did and jeopardized his relationship with his wife and kids.
