With Tiger Woods back on the professional golfing track with a Masters Tournament practice round on April 5, Elin Woods appears to be standing by her man according to an inside source.

Elin was noticeably absent from Tiger’s first round back which Tiger commented on by saying, “Elin’s not coming this week, no.”

But a source confirms that Elin is going to be sticking with her husband, revealing, “She’s happy this will take some of the heat off her.  But at the same time, she would rather Tiger focus on himself, his family and his treatment — not his career.”

The source goes on to reveal, “She will likely stand by her man.”

She’s still embarrassed.  And they definitely have not been intimate yet.”

Well serves him right, doesn’t it?  Has this news of Tiger’s infidelity changed your opinion of him in the sporting arena?

On Monday Woods spoke from the Augusta National saying that “a lot has happened in my life in the past five months,” and the hardest part was “having to look at myself in a light that I never wanted to look.”

While Woods did not going into much detail about the sex scandal, he did say, “The pain and the damage I caused my wife, my mom, my kids … Going forward, I am going to have to explain all [this to them] … but that’s my responsibility. I did it.”

Let’s just see what wife Elin is going to do now.

Even U.S. President Obama is crossing his fingers that golfer Tiger Woods and wife Elin work their marriage out.

Speaking with Fox News Wednesday, President Barack Obama stated, “Tiger has acknowledged that he betrayed his family and that’s a personal issue they’ve got to work out.”

“I hope they work it out and that he returns to golf.”

Sounds like the Pres is really interested in Tiger getting back to golf more than his marriage!  But I guess, who isn’t?!

Now infamous cheat Tiger Woods is planning on making a public apology come Friday at 11am.

Woods’ agent announced in a statement Wednesday that the golfer would be publicly apologizing for his recent behavior via the TPC Sawgrass clubhouse in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.

The statement read that Tiger “will be speaking to a small group of friends, colleagues and close associates,”  and that he plans to “discuss his past and his future and he intends to apologize for his behavior.”

Wow, we can’t wait to see if wife Elin will be standing behind him or not.

Woods apparently left the center early Friday with 30-year-old wife Elin.  The site goes on to say that the two are “planning on spending some time alone as they attempt to repair their marriage.”

We’re wishing this duo luck in the weeks ahead, no matter which way the tide turns.
