The following statement was released on Tiger Woods‘ website:
I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.
Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week, my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. The stories in particular that physical violence played any role in the car accident were utterly false and malicious. Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect.
But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don’t share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one’s own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn’t have to mean public confessions.
Whatever regrets I have about letting my family down have been shared with and felt by us alone. I have given this a lot of reflection and thought and I believe that there is a point at which I must stick to that principle even though it’s difficult.
I will strive to be a better person and the husband and father that my family deserves. For all of those who have supported me over the years, I offer my profound apology.
The greatest golfer to ever play the game. The athlete with the squeaky clean reputation. The all-american icon for the sport of golf. The family man with a gorgeous wife and two little kids.
Could all these things be forgotten so quickly? Well, it depends.
Last week, Tiger Woods was involved in a car accident in his neighborhood that involved him, a fire hydrant, and a neighbor’s tree. Oh yeah, his wife and a golf club were also present. Woods was taken to the hospital due to lacerations to his face. Why his wife, Elin, was present, still remains unclear. Different news and media outlets are reporting that either she was helping him exit through the back of his Cadillac Escalade by shattering the window, or she was upset and chasing him down because of a presumed affair that Tiger has been having with Rachel Uchitel.
Here is a statement that was released by Tiger Woods yesterday:

After talking with a few professionals of the PDGA, these are a few of the favorites they recommended that are “must plays” when it comes to frisbee golf parks.
Flip City Frisbee Golf Park
#1 Flip City Frisbee Golf Park (Shelby, MI)– This is pretty much the Augusta National of frisbee golf. This course has multiple elevated tees and very challenging holes. Be sure to bring some bug spray when playing this course in the spring and fall. The best part about this privately owned frisbee golf park…you can just show up and play.
#2 IdleWild Frisbee Golf Park (Burlington, KY)– This frisbee golf park has a very professional feel to it. From rolling hills to water hazards, placement will be key when playing here. It also won’t hurt to have some distance when trying to carry some of the water hazards.
Pier Frisbee Golf Park
#3 Milo McIver State Park (Estacada, OR)– A great park with winding holes and ups and downs. River access and hiking trails surround the park which make for a great place for an all day activity. Fantastic tee pads can be found here.
#4 Pier Frisbee Golf Park (Portland, OR)– This frisbee golf park plays very long. Beautiful course surrounded by 200ft tall douglas for trees that come into play on every hole.
#5 Richmond Hill Frisbee Golf Park (Asheville, NC)– This course is for the big boys. You have to be long to score well here. Be sure to wear pants unless you are positive that you will not be venturing into the poison ivy and oak that surround every hole. Also, this course is well known for its rotation of pin placements.
I am so sick of people that don’t understand the game of golf, yet pretend they do. All I hear from them is that “Tiger is having a rough year,” or that “Tiger is beyond his prime.” Absolutely absurd. He is at the top of his game, and here is why.
Tiger Woods is the best golfer to ever live. Period. I am not going to throw stats out to try and convince you of this fact. If you don’t already know it is true, then I truly feel bad for you. Wake up and smell the fresh air. If Tiger were to tee it up with Jack Nicklaus, Ben Hogan, Sam Sneed, Arnold Palmer, or whoever you think is the best ever, he would flat out spank them! And I am talking about all of those guys in their prime. Tiger is longer off the tee. Tiger has a better mental game. Tiger is clutch when it comes to making match winning shots. Tiger is a physical specimen that is in amazing shape. He would make them look ridiculous. Not a doubt in my mind.
For example, I will compare his year to that of Kobe Bryant’s in 2007-2008. Kobe did not win a championship, remember? This year, Tiger did not win a major. Did Kobe have amazing stats? Yes. Did he win the MVP that year? Yes he did. Does Tiger have amazing stats? Yes. Will he win the FedEx Cup this year? Yes. Did Kobe come back the following year and absolutely dominate the leauge? Yes. Is Tiger going to comeback and absolutely destroy the rest of the field next year? Yes. He will win two majors for sure. Hands down.
For all of you retarded reporters that can’t shoot under 90, have never gotten an eagle, who don’t know what a handicap is, please, for the sweet love of everything, just shut the hell up and stick to analyzing football and basketball. Tiger is the man. Get a clue and go back to talking about USC football or Brett Favre and his retirement. But please, for those of us that know and understand golf, keep your mouth closed.
