I don’t buy some of the stories. While I have no doubt that Tiger was cheating I doubt he was doing it as in the open as many of his alleged mistresses say. Were he then he never could have kept his wild social life a secret for so long.
Well, it seems that perhaps he didn't. While only a few may have known the depth of Tiger's deplorable behavior, the picture that I've seen painted is one that depicts many people being aware that Tiger was indulging from time to time.
It's been reported that Tiger's wife did hear some stories earlier, and Tiger denied them. She made the mistake of believing him - a mistake that MANY women make (and men too). People want to believe on the good, and deny the bad until it reaches a critical mass. Tiger reached critical mass with that National Enquirer story.
These women have text messages and voice mails as proof, plus Tiger's not denying it.
