Dear Santa,
Please let Elin allow me back into the house.
I will try to be a better person this year.
I left you some cookies and some milk.
Yours Truly,
- Tiger

This just in: the more pristine of an image someone has, the more of a hard-on people get should there be any such fall from grace.
Full story at 11.

| Originally posted by ChemEnhanced the only difference with these guys is they are part of a team. People cheer for a team and not one individual person like in golf. I think tiger will have a more difficult time coming back then any of those guys and he will have to deal with hecklers now, which he hasn't really had to deal with previously. |

| Woods voted top athlete of the decade By DOUG FERGUSON (AP) � 56 minutes ago Even after a shocking sex scandal that tarnished Tiger Woods, it was tough to ignore what he achieved on the golf course. He won 64 times around the world, including 12 majors, and hoisted a trophy on every continent golf is played. He lost only one time with the lead going into the final round. His 56 PGA Tour victories in one incomparable decade were more than anyone except four of golf's greatest players won in their careers. Woods was selected Wednesday as the Athlete of the Decade by members of The Associated Press in a vote that was more about 10 years of performance than nearly three weeks of salacious headlines. Just like so many of his victories, it wasn't much of a contest. Woods received 56 of the 142 votes cast by AP member editors since last month. More than half of the ballots were returned after the Nov. 27 car accident outside his Florida home that set off sensational tales of infidelity. Lance Armstrong, a cancer survivor who won the Tour de France six times this decade, finished second with 33 votes. He was followed by Roger Federer, who won more Grand Slam singles titles than any other man, with 25 votes. Record-setting Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps came in fourth with 13 votes, followed by New England quarterback Tom Brady (6) and sprinter Usain Bolt (4). Five other athletes received one vote apiece. Woods, who has not been seen since the accident and has issued only three statements on his Web site, was not made available to comment about the award. Few other athletes have changed their sport quite like Woods. His influence has been so powerful that TV ratings spiked whenever he played, even more when he has been in contention. Prize money has quadrupled since he joined the PGA Tour because of his broad appeal. A new image emerged quickly in the days following his middle-of-the-night accident, when he ran his SUV over a fire hydrant and into a tree. He became the butt of late-night TV jokes, eventually confessed that he "let my family down" with "transgressions" and lost a major sponsorship from Accenture. Even so, AP members found his work on the golf course over the last 10 years without much of a blemish. Woods took an early lead in balloting, and continued to receive roughly the same percentage of votes throughout the process. "Despite the tsunami of negative publicity that will likely tarnish his image, there's no denying that Woods' on-the-course accomplishments set a new standard of dominance within his sport while making golf more accessible to the masses," wrote Stu Whitney, sports editor of the Sioux Falls (S.D.) Argus Leader. "The only proof needed are the television ratings when Tiger plays in a golf tournament, compared to those events when others have to carry the load." Woods tumbled from the pinnacle of his sport in just about three weeks. The 10 years that preceded that fall, however, represented perhaps the greatest decade in golf history. He won the career Grand Slam three times over, including one U.S. Open by a record 15 shots at Pebble Beach and another U.S. Open on a mangled leg in a playoff at Torrey Pines. He twice won the British Open at St. Andrews, the home of golf, by a combined 13 shots. Woods won 56 times on the PGA Tour this decade, a rate of 30 percent that is unprecedented in golf. Nine of those victories were by at least eight shots. He was No. 1 in the world ranking for all but 32 weeks in the decade, that when he was revamping his swing. He did his best work in the biggest events. Along with his 12 majors this decade � he has 14 overall, four short of the record held by Jack Nicklaus � Woods was runner-up in six other majors. He won 14 times out of 27 appearances in the World Golf Championships. Woods finished the decade with $81,547,410 in earnings from his PGA Tour events, an average of $482,529 per tournament. |

Elin Nordegren, the wife of pro-golfer Tiger Woods, will file for divorce, according to reports.
She is said to make the announcement public after Christmas.
Nordegren has apparently hired divorce lawyer Sorrell Trope, who is the same Los Angeles based lawyer who handled Britney Spears' divorce.
Tiger and his wife have two kids together.
The golfer has been under the media spotlight after it came out he had numerous extra marital affairs.
It came to the forefront after Tiger crashed into a car into a tree and fire hydrant a few weeks ago. There was speculation that Nordegren may have tried to attack him just before the incident.
Woods has said that he would be taking an 'indefinite leave' from golf to try to repair the relationship with his wife and children.

| Originally posted by ChemEnhanced I thought that bit was funny. I'm all for tiger getting the air time he DESERVES.....when he's not in contention they shouldn't show every shot he makes. It's been tiger mania on the Golf Channel all week. Every time I turned the channel on they had some golf tournament that tiger won on. They even showed his US amateur championship. |

Report: Tiger lost two teeth in golf club attack
Wife apparently hit golfer

MONTREAL -_ Tiger Woods' disappearing act since he crashed his SUV outside his Florida home in November might be partly due to a pair of missing teeth, compliments of a nine-iron to the face by an angry wife, according to former NHL coach Pat Burns.
Burns offered some details of the now-infamous night to a Montreal radio station Tuesday morning, based on what he's heard from his Florida police friends, and that are similar to several purported in-the-know stories floating around online.
Burns, who has mostly retired from hockey and now lives in Florida, has contacts with the police sector, where he worked before coaching hockey.
In a conversation with CKAC Sports in Montreal on Tuesday morning, Burns said an old friend in the highway patrol was among those who went to Woods' home on the night of the crash, on Nov. 27.
"After dinner, Tiger Woods watched football in the living room while sending text messages to Rachel, the famous blond," he told the radio station.
"Whenever he received a message from her, he erased it. Meanwhile, one of his friends, based in Orlando, invited him to go play poker. At approximately 7:30 p.m., he went to change, then left. He forgot his phone on the coffee table in the lounge. Rachel, meanwhile, continued to write her text messages.
"His wife (Elin Nordegren) saw the message. When he returned, around 11:30 p.m. or midnight, she waited at the door. She asked what it was, these messages, and who was this woman."
According to Burns, Woods went up to the second floor of the home, wearing a t-shirt and shorts.
"He kept saying there was nothing there. He went to watch television ...then suddenly, bang! A nine-iron in the face!"
According to Burns, the hit caused a large cut in Woods' cheek and knocked out two of his teeth.
"He left the house running without shoes. Elin followed him with the club. He left in his Escalade. She followed him and broke two or three windows. That's why he hit the tree," he said.
"They took him to hospital in Orlando. Elin was in the ambulance with him and called his agent. He suggested that they meet at the hospital. Once there, the doctors said he needed plastic surgery to repair the broken teeth, but only one institution could do it, in Phoenix (Arizona).
"The agent warmed up the jet to he could leave for Phoenix where they could fix his face. This explains (Woods') absence when the police wanted to meet him the following days," Pat Burns told the station.
Burns' details mirror several stories floating around online that are attributed to Woods' neighbours and others who say they know what happened that night.
None of these stories have been confirmed and all have been picked apart as speculative.
Woods has not been seen in public since the crash. Since then, 18 women have been linked to the golfer's tomcatting ways.
According to several media reports, Nordegren is believed to have left the Florida home with the couple's children, getting away from the attention her her husband's cheating ways and plotting a lucrative divorce.
