Tiger and Elin: divorced

The statement on his website:

We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future. While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us. Once we came to the decision that our marriage was at an end, the primary focus of our amicable discussions has been to ensure their future well-being. The weeks and months ahead will not be easy for them as we adjust to a new family situation, which is why our privacy must be a principal concern.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Nine months after Tiger Woods caught in adultery, his marriage ends in divorce

at 17:06 on August 23, 2010, EDT.

Tiger Woods and his Swedish-born wife officially divorced Monday, nine months after his middle-of-the night car crash outside his home set off shocking revelations that the world's most famous athlete had been cheating on his wife.

"We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future," Woods and Elin Nordegren said in a joint statement released by their lawyers.

The divorce was granted in Bay County Circuit Court in Panama City, Fla., about 600 kilometres away from their Isleworth home outside Orlando. The couple had married in October 2004 in Barbados and have a three-year-old daughter, Sam, and a 19-month-old son, Charlie.

Terms of the divorce were not disclosed, except that they will "share parenting" of their two children.

The divorce was finalized by Bay County Circuit Judge Judy Pittman Biebel during a brief hearing in a conference room in her chambers, according to Biebel's judicial assistant Kim Gibson. The hearing was very brief, only about five or 10 minutes. Both Woods and Nordegren were present, along with their lawyers, Gibson said.

"I don't comment on active cases," Thomas J. Sasser, Woods' divorce lawyer, said. When asked why they chose to file in Panama City, Sasser said only it was a joint decision by the lawyers.

Woods' agent, Mark Steinberg, declined comment when asked if they had a pre-nuptial agreement or terms of the settlement. "We're not commenting beyond what was in the release," he said.

Nordegren's mother, Barbro Holmberg, also declined comment.

The petition said the marriage was "irretrievably broken" and that Woods' wife asked to have her maiden name — Elin Maria Pernilla Nordegren — restored.

The couple signed a marital settlement agreement on July 3 and July 4, the weekend of the AT&T National outside Philadelphia, where Woods failed to break par in a PGA Tour event for the first time in 11 years.

The sordid sex scandal cost Woods three major corporate sponsors — Accenture, AT&T and Gatorade — worth millions of dollars, and he lost his image as the gold standard in sports endorsements. A month after the scandal became public, Woods spent two months in therapy at a Mississippi clinic with hopes of saving his marriage.

"While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us," they said in the statement. ... "The weeks and months ahead will not be easy for them as we adjust to a new family situation, which is why our privacy must be a principal concern."

According to court documents, Woods completed the American Safety Institute's four-hour course on "Parent Education and Family Stablization" on July 10, the day before he left to play the British Open at St. Andrews. Woods, who had won the previous two times at St. Andrews by a combined 13 shots, tied for 23rd.

Nordegren completed her four-hour class through FloridaParentingClass.com on Aug. 16, the start of the PGA Championship.

Documents also show the two children lived at their primary home at Isleworth until November 2009 — Woods crashed his SUV over the fire hydrant and into a tree on Nov. 27 — and that Ms. Nordegren had moved out to a nearby residence since then.

Woods is to play this week at The Barclays, where he needs a good performance to extend his PGA Tour season and try to show he is worth picking for the Ryder Cup. It will be his first tournament as a single man since he finished ninth in a World Golf Championship in Ireland in October 2004.

Since returning to golf at the Masters, Woods has not come close to winning a tournament. He tied for fourth in the Masters and in the U.S. Open, both times taking himself out of contention early in the final round.

One example of how the impending divorce has affected him came last month when he played in a charity pro-am in Ireland, which ended on Tuesday. Instead of staying overseas to practise on links courses, Woods flew home to Florida for six days to see his children, then returned to Scotland for the British Open.

Woods has won 82 times worldwide — 36 times and six majors while married — in his professional career. His last victory came at the Australian Masters on Nov. 15, his last trip before his serial infidelity was uncovered.

I must say that I am very proud of Elin and Sandra Bullock. Life is just too freggin short to spend time being faithful to some lame azz who is out getting his jollies off with everybody. They have proven themselves to be "Power Movers". Screw em and take all they money when you bounce.

Although I'm your biggest fan...I'm also your biggest critic. Can you deal with that?

GTFO!!! 4 hour parenting education and family stabilization. You need more than 4 hours to figure out how to do that and such classes ought to be mandatory for highschoolers.

Oh well....I just hope she got that money cuz it is a terrible thing to do to another person that you supposedly love. I hope his ass never gets married again cuz he his hazardous to women's health. But of course if he continues to cavort with trollops and harlots I won't give a damn as they are their own species.

You mean Elin's single???

*checks breath*

Anyway, LMAO @ all the women in here cheering for Elin to take Tiger to the cleaners!

If it was a rich and famous woman who had been in this situation and her Ex Husband tried to get that much alimony you'd say how much he needs to be a man and get a real job and stop mooching off his woman!

I mean really, I feel for her for getting cheated on and embarrassed, and yadda yadda. But she hasn't made a single putt!

She hasn't won any Master's Tournaments!

Had she not married Tiger, she probably would wind up being like Rache Uchitel!

JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!!

That's why no professional athlete(or any dude with a lot of money) should ever get married. It's not worth the risk. Hopefully, Mantan's learned his lesson.

Agreed. Elin comes from a really good family over here on this side of the pond. Her mom is almost like a Swedish version of Hilary Clinton, and her dad is a media big whig in Washington. I could see Elin having about as much chance becoming Rachel Uchitel as Chelsea Clinton being on Rock of Love lol

if you ever hear of any woman getting caught out there fucking a bunch of dudes while married, then her dumb ass deserves to get taken to the cleaners AND the free clinic just like Tiger!

of course most women tend to be just a little bit....slicker..in their indiscretion wink

For instance, not that I would cheat or anything, but if I did I have a lock on my hone and I wouldn't leave it laying around for easy access. I would not be giving the hoes my private number and whatnot. hmph! I would tell my hoes what the business was and I would not be leaving any messages with my name on them that could be released. I wouldn't leave receipts out. I would have security blocking my ho access. And if I got caught I would not be having anything around that could be used as a weapon against. disbelief

Of ourse if I like to fuck around with multiple hoes I wouldn't get married in the first place! hmmm

You'd think Tiger would have learned something from hanging with Michael Jordan. But Graycap said it first and he was right - Tiger has ZERO game, no savvy at all.

Uh, Jayne Mansfield. While she was married to Mickey Hargitay, he mentioned she had several affairs on him. One time, he caught her in bed with two other men. He never divorced her though, she filed for divorce. He still loved her despite her infidelity. Still does...

I wouldn't be surprised if there were some legalese/stipulations in their final divorce decree that negates that idea. I'm sure Elin's divorced settlement was more than substantail and there are children invovled. Why bother, take the high road and start afresh, allow her ex to wallow in his own manure. shrug
