Relationships: Tiger Woods-The BIG Payback?
The internet has been buzzing all morning & afternoon about Tiger Woods & [soon to be ex] wife Elin Nordegren’s divorce settlement. Rumor has it that Woods & Nordegren have nearly reached a settlement in their divorce which will leave Nordegren with around $700 million!!! Included in this agreement are a few other stipulations; Nordegren gets primary custody of their two children (Sam, 3 and Charlie, 1), the kiddos would also be schooled in Sweden-as Nordegren would like to keep them away from all of the media, as well as, be nearer to her family & close friends-according to People.
As if $700m isn’t enough, Nordegren also has been rumored to demand that Woods not bring women around their children, unless he decides to marry. This & dividing their other marital assets. Woods also has his own demands, for instance, he would like to see his children at least one weekend monthly, with the possibility of him having custody during his time off from his busy golfing schedule. It is also rumored that Woods wants Nordegren to agree to stay hush about her time spent with him during the course of their relationship & marriage-Side Note: Tiger come on, nothing else would surprise us after we’ve all witnessed your hypersexuality!
As I mentioned, all of this is still speculation. Forbes Kurt Badenhausen recently posted that it would be near impractical for Elin Nordegren to be awarded $700+ million in the divorce settlement. From Forbes standpoint, Woods is not worth the $1.5 billion that has been reported.
“We’ve been tracking Tiger’s earnings since he turned pro in 1996. Last year he became the first athlete to earn a cumulative $1 billion through his income from prize money, appearance fees, endorsements and his golf course design business.”-Kurt Badenhausen
Badenhausen informs us that the amount mentioned is all before tax, & that Woods also had to pay his agents at IMG. Forbes believes that after all is said & done, Woods is only worth about $600 million. Though a lot of people out there would like to believe this, I don’t believe a judge would award Nordegren ALL of Woods fortune, a portion…yes.
What do you think? Post your comments below, I’m sure we all have our own opinion of this situation.

At least somebody has Tiger Woods’ back!
Just days after dropping disgraced golf superstar Tiger Woods as its spokesman, the TAG Heuer watch company has had a change of heart.
Some legal goon at corporate headquarters must have remembered that a contract is legally binding and they would have to buy out the rest of Tiger’s lucrative contract because — oops — they forgot to include a morals clause that would automatically nullify the contract if Tiger was to, let’s say get caught cheating on his wife with 14 skanks.
So it was probably more economical to keep using Tiger’s still marketable image rather than throw all that cash down the drain, at least until his contract expires.
Meanwhile, Tiger is spending the holidays with golfing buddies on his luxury yacht in the warm waters off the coast of the Bahamas. For all that talk about Tiger keeping his family together and seeking marriage therapy, it looks like his marriage to former nanny Elin Nordegren is definitely over.
It’s rare for a man (who isn’t off fighting a war or some such) to spend the holidays away from his children. Sandra Rose

An exclusive report has just been brought to attention by PopEater’s Naughty But Nice that Tiger Woods will probably move to France to get away from the media frenzy in the United States. It is reported that the avid golfer is currently looking at multi-million dollar estates in France with the hope of getting more privacy.
“Members of team Tigers have reached out to the same ultra-exclusive real estate agent that helped Brad [Pitt] and Angelina [Jolie] find their stunning property in the South of France,” an insider tells the site. Meanwhile, Michael Wildes, the immigration attorney and managing partner at prominent NYC-based immigration law firm Wildes & Weinberg, claims Woods’ not-yet-confirmed move to France as understandable, taking into account the country has “much stricter privacy laws that afford the Brangelinas of the world a tinted aquarium, rather than the transparent fishbowl that is the U.S. media, in which to live and breathe in virtual freedom and privacy.”
Echoing Michael’s explanation, a celebrity publicist tells PopEater’s Naughty But Nice, “that’s why private stars like reclusive Johnny Depp chooses France to raise his family and why Angelina decided it was the only place to give birth to the world’s most famous twins.”
As of the press time, there has been no word just yet from Woods if the report is true or not. His people also remain silent on the matter. #Shout Out AceShowBiz
