Woods and his wife Elin Nordegren, 29, are desperately trying to save their marriage and have been undergoing marriage counselling sessions several times daily at their home in Orlando, Florida.

When the couple married on Oct. 5, 2004, in a wedding at the exclusive Sandy Lane resort in Barbados, Mrs Nordegren signed an agreement which staggered payments and was initially modest by A-list celebrity standards.

It is said to have given her the right to $20 million (£12 million) after 10 years of marriage.

In light of Woods' recent "transgressions" the amount has been increased to $75 million

Unfortunately, it says something unflattering about Elin that she would consider staying with this guy if he just quadruples his payoff to her. They're just haggling about the price now...

Actually, I thought it said something flattering about her that she signed such a “modest” prenup in the first place. Almost like, “okay, but I’m really expecting this marriage to last and be wonderful; we’re just doing this token prenup because our lawyers will go crazy if we don’t.”

She’s not so much offering to stay with him for extra dough as she is negotiating her divorce settlement while she’s still married and while the heat is on. Smart!

And if Tiger redeems himself and changes, then she also ends up with a husband she probably loves and the father of her children in their lives.

Doesn’t sound likely, though. Tiger is demonstrating Thoroughly Arrested Adolescence Syndrome. Awful hard to cure at his age.

Very true.

I always laugh to myself when I hear a guy who proclaims “I never paid for it in my life”
