Tiger admits Infidently

TIGER ADMITS INFIDELITY: Woods to step away from golf indefinitely
(December 11, 2009)
*Tiger Woods has decided that now would be a good time to just go away and deal with the issues that have put in the spotlight in ways he'd rather not be seen in.

He's also finally acknowledging his infidelities with various women as well. In a statement at his website, the world's number golfer is apologizing for the "disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children."

Here is his full statement:

I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children. I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I've done, but I want to do my best to try.

I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding. What's most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing.

After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person.

Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period.
