"Cheetah" Woods' Apology

After listening to this article I honestly believe he did just to get back on the golf course. Golf is his life, and his legacy. Yes, it is sad to see it overshadowed by an incedent(s) like this, but he needed to clear it up with the public and his fans. It is known that Tiger is a guy who can't even stand when a snapshot is taken during his backswing, can you ijmagine the mayhem if he just started golfing again straight away? While his apology is greatly appreciated by all, I think it should've come sooner. It's good that he's going to treatment for his "problem" and even though he'll never be married to his wife again, and owes her an enormous amount of money this apology will most likely be accepted by Elin, and everyone else.
