Tiger Woods is at the Masters this week, his first golf tournament since the scandal broke last Thanksgiving. He’ll hold a press conference this afternoon at 2 EST, which will be his first in five months. (He did have that “I’m so sorry” speech, but that was in a carefully controlled environment with only invited guests and no questions.) I’m wondering how he’ll handle questions about his affairs, but judging from his individual interviews he seems to have prepared well for those questions. Some of you will disagree, but I think that he’s genuinely remorseful and sorry for getting caught. (Read how I worded that before you respond.) I mean that – I think he’s truly sad that he jeopardized his marriage and billion dollar public image. I’m not convinced he would have done anything differently except be more discreet if he knew how it would turn out, though.
Now that Tiger’s comeback is underway, more women have been coming out with details of “alleged” affairs. Tiger was a busy guy, and there are plenty of strippers, hookers, and opportunists who claim to have had a piece of him. There’s even a whole piece in this month’s Vanity Fair featuring Tiger’s massive indiscretions and interviews with four of his hookups. In order to fend off potential drama, there’s tight security around the Masters in Augusta, GA. All 90 of the security staff, including 8 security hired just to guard Tiger, are allegedly armed with photos of Tiger’s mistresses. That must be like a deck of cards. They should pretty much be wary of any woman between the ages of 20-50 who is even remotely attractive.
Radar Online also reports that Tiger’s wife Elin has chosen to stay away from the Masters and won’t be there. Good for her. I hope she’s busy spending Tiger’s money.
Spurned wife Elin Nordegren was not with him and is not expected to join him at the prestigious tournament.
“She did not even say goodbye to Tiger,” revealed a RadarOnline.com insider.
As RadarOnline.com has exclusively reported, Tiger’s embattled marriage to Elin continues to stall at this critical moment.
Late last week, she escaped to Key Biscayne for two-days – without Tiger – to watch tennis at the Sony Ericsson Open event.
She returned late on Friday night and avoided all contact with her philandering husband, a source revealed.
As RadarOnline.com has reported, Elin is furious at Tiger’s imminent return to world golf, believing it is too soon after his adultery scandal exploded lastNovember.
Tiger is scheduled to face the media in a pre-tournament press conference on Monday.
The tournament itself gets underway later in the week, on Thursday.
It has also emerged Tiger will be protected by a virtual army of up to 90 private bodyguards, including former Secret Service and FBI agents as well as armed deputies.
Concerned he could be confronted by one of his sexual conquests, Woods has assembled the unprecedented security and even distributed photos to the bodyguards of his alleged lovers to ensure they’re on the lookout.
The most vocal, porn star, Joslyn James has threatened to picket the tournament with friends using megaphones.
[From Radar Online]
I hope James does picket with her friends, even if she’s only doing it to promote her nearby stripping gig and ensure future opportunities as top billing on porn DVDs. (“Featuring Tiger’s mistress, Joslyn James”) I wonder what Tiger is going to discuss in his press conference today. It will probably revolve around respecting his privacy, and his family’s privacy, as he focuses on the game. Tiger should have done that a few years ago.
please, those trash will not get anywhere near him
She’s going to picket? For what? Will she be holding a sign that says, ‘Yeah, I’m a whore’?
James is trying (and failing miserably) to become such an irritant to Woods he’ll offer her a huge payoff like Uchitel got.
If it hasn’t happened yet, it’s not going to. She’d be better off spending her time “acting” in a few more movies than wasting her time and energy on this scheme.
Well at least he finished rehab unlike Jesse James. I think its good he’s back to golf and Elin wants a good good divorce settlement or lifestyle let him bring in the dough. Golf fans seem so quiet so it would be something to have a heckler with a megaphone screaming about unrequited golden showers. I agree he got help only because he got caught, I’m glad he went to rehab as I’ve met his addictions specialist Patrick Carnes at a conference, Tiger wouldve had his butt kicked in therapy.
This whole Tiger thing was shocking at first.
It quickly became icky.
Now it’s just a farce.
I hope people picket and just laugh in this guys face!!! I also really hope he doesn’t make the cut so I can fully enjoy the Masters!
If Tigers’s skanks picket they’ll be the laughing stock of the tournament not him and they may even pick up some business too…
That must be one thick notebook then!!
Does anyone else get the feeling that this is just a PR stunt? Make the ratings go up hoping to see the hobag picket line?
Pictures of his mistresses? So if they see some poor woman who looks remotely like one will they ask her to wait while they flick through their huge binder of photos?
For Ms James to picket the Masters = total fail.
Good for Elin to not be there. She’s obviously not as good at lying as her husband.
The Masters will be HUGE. Predicting massive never-seen-before ratings for first two rounds – just in case Tiger does miss the cut. I don’t think he will.
There was an interesting opinion piece about the balance of power shift that will occur in the locker room. You can just imagine that it will indeed be the case. He’ll hardly be as intimidating as before. Smirks all round.
What does this whore want from Tiger? Money? Too late. She should have told him to leave a $20 on the nightstand when she had the chance.
Elin = Fail. Staying away from a golf tournament doesn’t amount to anything when you’re still stying WITH a lying and cheating husband. Still no sympahy for her.
The only winners will be The Masters itself because I’m sure they are racking in millions for advertising spot and Tiger because he’s such a con and knows that almost everyone has a “price” (even his wife).He now knows he can do anything and buy/play his way back into favor. If he wins this tournament, he’ll be golden.And all will be forgiven.
“They should pretty much be wary of any woman between the ages of 20-50 who is even remotely attractive.”
Uh, then they wouldn’t be looking out for the right women — all of Tiger’s whores are F-U-G in the first degree. Not a looker in the bunch. Blech.
What the dick is Uchatel wearing in those photos? Work out pants and a sweater? Basically an excuse to wear the most ass-revealing thing possible and pretend it was unplanned casual wear?
And I’d revise the sentence “basically any female *remotely* attractive” – Have you seen Mindy and Rachel? Eeesh.
“She’s going to picket? For what? Will she be holding a sign that says, ‘Yeah, I’m a whore’? ”
@dread pirate cuervo: That was hilarious and ITA.
What is the so-called mistresses’ point? what is it that she’s trying to achieve? Title as “Un-Disputed Champion of Attention Whores!”… and like-wise.
I say crown her ass!
Is it just me or does it seem like she’s trying way too hard to prove her case way too long after the fact? It’s not like anyone’s saying they don’t believe her, it’s just that there’s been so many contestants in Tiger’s skank game that we no longer care.
The porn star… just UGH. You won’t get any more money, so please stop. And no new fans… you are incredibly unattractive. ICK. She must specialize in some really nasty ish.
I just cant fathom why Tiger woods is going to play in a tournament so quickly. If he HONESTLY cared about his family and wat the scandal has done to his “whoolesome” image, he wudnt be doing this.
He’s a selfish ego maniac.
I really hope they boo him and he gets shamed by his fans. he’s disgusting….if it was 1 or 2 women, then fine…..kinda.
But it was a chariot of harlots literally….and he did it blatantly also.
I wud go all Jazmin Sullivan on his car AND his ass.
Remotely attractive?! Not one of those ladies was remotely attractive… easy yes, attractive no.
And why would Elin turn up? She is staying for the money. Tiger makes the money, she spends the money, why would that equate her to having to turn up to support him at his sport?
And a wee bit off topic… if Tiger is “blasian” isn’t that a kind of contridiction? I have just been on John Gosselin’s post and he has a small penis… well if Tiger is half Asian, half Black… umm… wtf?
Your blog seems to have good information and good traffic, but articles related finger print scanner would give more yeild i think.
I have a hard time reading some articles, mostly because they’re dull. You have written an article that I find fascinating and I am glad I read it. I hope you have plans to continue.
