ABC News, The LA Times, People Magazine and other large media sources are reporting that a divorce between Elin Nordgren and Tiger Woods is “100% on.” Elin has been spotted around town with no wedding ring on her finger and a moving vans were seen outside of the Woods’ home yesterday. Elin has supposedly hired California’s top divorce attorney.
Big Break
Mega beautiful blond Swedish model worth millions will soon be single. This could be my big break. I’m pretty good with kids and none of my sponsors have dropped me…

At the end of the day, Woods is just a man, but golf is an institution.
I couldn’t agree more. Golf will survive no matter what happens to Tiger Woods or any famous individual in the world of golf. The game, the institution, will draw me back to the course every time despite how poorly I may have played or dejected I may have been the previous round.
Some good news for the Tiger Woods camp hit today. Tiger was voted the athlete of the decade by Associated Press member newspaper editors. Lance Armstrong was a distant second.
With all that has transpired for the TW PR engine, this must feel like like chipping in from 25 yards for a double bogey or topping a turd with whipped cream and a cherry. But on the bright side at least there IS whipped cream and a cherry.
What a difference 10 days makes. Quotes from an interview in New Zealand on November 17, 2009:
Media member: “family first and golf second … always been that way?”
Tiger’s Woods: “Always. Always.”
The first major sponsor has dropped Tiger Woods, Accenture.
“After careful consideration and analysis, the company has determined that he is no longer the right representative for its advertising.”
We’ll see if this marks the opening of the flood gates.
