The following is a statement issued by Tiger Woods on his Web site:

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 quest for a touring card next year started in Spain yesterday and some say it’s the toughest tournament in the world.

I have 2 friends that have made it this far and both finished +1

Now I’m inclined to believe people because 1 over par had them tied in 101st place . wow!

What is you view about golfing madness? My definition is the golfer that complains about how they are playing and yet goes out the next round expecting their golf to be better, yet they have done NOTHING about improving it. If you haven’t changed anything how can it improve?

Winter is the ideal time to iron out those problems with your game and the best way to do that is with a golf lesson. As a Professional golfer I can tell you that I always work harder on my game during the winter so that I can enjoy it more during the summer.

What you need is golf lessons followed by golf lessons and more golf lessons, only then can you complain if your game has not got better.

Book that golf lesson NOW!
