US president gets behind Tiger Woods
Thursday, March 18th, 2010US president Barack Obama has expressed his support for fallen golfer Tiger Woods.
Obama said Woods will be a “terrific” golfer despite his personal issues, the AP reports.
Woods, who just announced his return to competitive golf, is reported on the road to re-establishing his sporting career after the fallout from revelations of multiple extra-marital affairs. He announced he would play The Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia next month, as insiders noted he picked the “most controlled” of tourneys for a comeback.
Obama in an interview with the Fox News Channel on Wednesday said that Woods has acknowledged betraying his family and that he has to work out personal issues. Obama said he was sure Woods is still going to be a terrific golfer.
Woods appears to be en route to healing his marriage to Elin Nordegren after taking four months off to attend to rehab and damage control.
