He might be a Daddy’s Boy, but he has a lot of love and respect for his mother too. I don’t see him as the type to be a woman beater, I just don’t. He takes golf very seriously, and shows it on the course. This doesn’t necessarily translate to other aspects of his personal life, per se.

Now- as to possible cheating… We don’t know if that’s what’s going on here so it’s total speculation, but with two small children at home, it could be Elin wasn’t as attentive to Tiger as she’s been in the past and he strayed. Not an excuse for his behavior, but it’s been known to happen, and humans can fail each other. If that’s the case, this is a very private family issue and they can likely work this out if they so choose.

I’ve watched Tiger’s career since before he went pro, and I’ve always seen a humble and gracious man, and in more personal interviews, one who is very thoughtful. He spends a lot of time giving back to the golfing community- teaching kids to play and other charity work. I had a friend who drove him in a limo to one children’s workshop Tiger came to town for, and he said Tiger was really nice and down to earth. He talks the talk and walks the walk. I never did think he was perfect, so this rumor, if true, will only prove he’s human.
