    Marriage is so stupid. It's the most unbelievably ridiculous thing you could ever undertake.

And there are currently stories floating around about Tiger's ties to a known provider of HGH.

    I think it's cos Tiger doesn't want the world to find out that he liked to be taken with a strap-on while wearing womens pants

    Wow. In all my time on boards (which, admittedly, isn't as long as others), I genuinely haven't come across a more idiotic and misogynistic post than this. I think, at this stage, most of us can differentiate between trolling, joking, and being serious. And this post is the later. To be honest, I don't care who did what, and who got what. But when somebody has been caught rapid being a deceitful liar, they should pay. That you think his wife, who seemingly never cheated, but stood by her husband, is the whore of the relationship, shows you up as a shallow, morally idiotic person. Thank christ not all people think like you, or it would be a sad, moronic world we would live in. More so.
    Didn't she beat him with a gold club, divorce him and then rape him for 750 million?

    Playing it a bit fast and lose with the term 'rape,' aren't we? Perhaps he shouldn't have fucked everything he saw. Or maybe divorced his wife first before doing it. No sympathy for him. He wouldn't give a shit if he hadn't have been caught.

    Fuck everything they see after they vowed to be loyal under the sancitity of marriage? gtfo.

    I'm not one for marriage, but if you make the commitment, stick by it. There's no such thing as honour any more when it comes to 'celebrities,' sports stars, politicians, etc. Fuck around, pay the price. Otherwise, don't get married, sign a pre-nump, or you know, keep it in your pants.

    Are there any substance to these rumours?

    He turned down a 75 million deal with Paddy Power, after being dropped by the majority of his sponsors. I doubt he needs the money.

    And he was the perfect husband, yeah? She's being called a whore and a gold digger for divorcing him and taking what she is entitled to.
    If she turned a blind eye to his cheating and stayed with him, she would also be called a whore and a gold digger.
    If it was the other way around and she had cheated on him, she would still be called a whore and a gold digger.

    when you get married it is for better or for worse. he handed all his assets to her the day he married her, she held up her side, he breached the contract. if he had gotten himself into a 750mil of personal debt hole she would be stuck right there with him.
    to call him a low life is not to display anything but a sense of reality - a married father who goes and shags skanks - and please do not try to defend them - unprotected or protected is nothing but a lowlife scumbag, is there another word anyone could come up with?
    he could have brought home anything to his wife - and if she has to remain silent for life who knows if he did?
    He endangered his children's future happiness and he humiliated the one person he is supposed to be closest too. he should lose it all.

    If it is true, Tiger is still a young guy he will earn it back 5 times over.

    This isn't just a divorce settlement, it's hush money. I think a portion of whatever she's getting goes toward getting her to sign that confidentiality agreement, and that's the real prize. She could cash in by telling all of Tiger's dirty little secrets to the press. This money is an incentive to keep her quiet and allow Tiger to rebuild his reputation without worrying about whether or not she'll release a book a few years down the line.

    Exactly. He could have given her AIDS or anything. He brought the whole thing completely upon himself, and he knew full well what marriage entails- especially if it ends in divorce.

    What is it about her that makes you call her a whore? Is it because she has the self-respect to divorce her husband over his incessant and persistant adultery?
    Too strong I admit. I just don't think she should get that much. Why not just let her take what is hers, what she earned and enough to support herself and the kids when she gets them.

    Meh, it was partly tongue and cheek. You need to relax tbh. What he did was wrong but then again nobody knows the full story. It's all speculation (even taking Tiger's statement's into account) And this is after hours where nothing is serious. Please calm down.:)

    What an absolute joke, this women has not accomplished a single thing in her entire life other that looking mildly attractive she was vain enough to use her good looks to her advantage.
    I'm not saying Tiger deserves the money he gets for what he does but she has absolutely no claim over HIS finances, a model? f**k that bull**** who cares if he cheated on her with all those other women, he's Tiger Woods!

    It' similar to Heather Mills and Paul McCartney, on one side you have a musical genius who's worked hard his entire life and a mildly attractive nobody who exploits his good fortune and talent for herself, they don't deserve a penny!

    Of course it was. At least have the courage of your convictions. That, I could respect, even if I didn't agree with it. But backpedaling... :rolleyes:

    well if he is as big a gambling man as he is supposed to be then he too his chances and lost and deserves to lose his shirt - he know the odds.
    why the venom directed at her - she did nothing wrong except trust a fool

    Its amazing how people are surprised by her actions.

    She didn't exactly marry him for his looks. And he lets face it, behind the camera and propaganda he is a cheat and a fake person so it couldn't have been for his personality either.

    Would she have married this man if he wasn't famous? We all know that answer.

    It's called being his wife, that's part of marriage, everything that is theirs is also yours.

    Could you go into great detail?

    There are two questions really, what is the legal basis for her receiving such an astronomical sum of money, which is probably easily explained by somebody who knows the law in this area, and the second question, the moral basis of her receiving the sum.

    Your initial response didn't clear up much of the confusion for me, I would grateful if you could edify me.

    And, even though it may have been pointed out before, the 750 million figure isn't exactly set in stone. As an article in the Orlando Sentinel explains:

    No, I'm a fan of Tiger Woods' golf. His personal life should be of no concern to me, you or anybody else.

    Oh ffs, grow up. I made a smart remark. This is ah, get over it. She was wronged by her husband, he apologised. They divorced. She got enough money off him to do her fifty lifetimes. She got a fairly good deal if you ask me. They should just move on and let Woods get abck to concentrating on his golf career. You should probably get back to your own life too..:)
