Its only a problem if he wants to stay married. IMHO he has enough money to live however he chooses, which is just what will happen no matter what anyone says. LOL.

Whats the divorce rate these days, around 53%.

I feel sorry for Mrs.Woods, the children and Tiger. However some folks learn through experience, its just the way they are.

I do not share the moral indignation most have about Woods.
Everyone involved with Tiger Woods sexually was an adult with fully functioning mental capability.No crime was committed by him, such as rape or violence.

The major problem folks have with Tiger is that he was a womanizer, and exremely sexually active. I doubt that fact will detract from his popularity unless he goes off his game.

I wish them all well, Mrs. Woods will get her pre nuptial settlement , and she will likely remarry , but Woods , if he decides to leave, will likely be a bachelor the rest of his life. To bad he didn't understand himself better before he made the mistake of undertaking to be married, making promises he was clearly unable to keep. Mind you that will cost him millions of dollars and also a lot of pain, and that he has earned.

I hope he is able to continue his career as an outstanding athlete despite all of these difficulties. I have no reason to wish him ill.

If it had been a single one-night-stand, I could see moving on. But what Tiger did is a conduct a multi-year deliberate attempt to deceive not just his wife, but golf fans too. If his treatment of all these girls, as we’ve heard from them and their friends (like the sister in this article) is true, he has all the makings of a sociopath.

I don’t know if you’re much of a golf fan, like I am, but golf is different from other sports. In other sports, players are usually applauded if they’re able to break the rules and get away with it (take football, for instance, when a player gets away with unnecessary roughness). But golf is not just about the integrity of the game; it is also about the integrity of its players. Take the famous story of Bobby Jones calling a two-stroke penalty on himself in the US Open, only to end up losing by one stroke. This kind of stuff is fundamental to the game of golf.

Tiger’s integrity as a man and a golfer have both been called into question with all this news. We’ve been fed the picture of the perfect man before now, but now we know this is a man with some likely serious mental issues. I’m going to have serious questions about his integrity from now on, and I’m not even religious.

And this is coming from someone who was a big Tiger supporter. I even went to the man’s tournament (every day, including the pro-am) for all three years he had it here in DC, even the year he was a no-show because of his injury.

It is just wrong to string along multiple women at one time who believe that you really love them, when all you want is a quickie. Any woman who has been the target of such duplicity will tell you that it is a very sick and cruel thing to be subjected to and scars you for a very long time.

For me, it’s not a live and live type of thing. Tiger is a cruel, unfeeling, uncaring and deceiving human. He’s left a trail of carnage in his wake regardless of whether or not he ever got married. Being married just makes it all the more tragic.

He is an abuser of women.

If he’s that desperate for sex without commitment, then he should just pay a hooker.

“No crime was committed by him,...”

He broke up at least two marriages, clear moral crimes.
