Tiger Woods may have owned up to his infidelities – “transgressions,” as he called them – but that’s not to say a simply public apology will suffice to fix the situation. According to recent reports cited by the New York Daily News, wife Elin Nordegren is still determined to go through with the divorce, but his $300 million Christmas present to her was just the perfect thing to pave the way to an amicable separation.

Reports in the British media say that Woods decided to give Elin what she wanted most as a Christmas present: in this case, the certainty that the two children she has with the golfer would not want for anything as they grow up apart from their natural father. So, while the star had to make do with mailing his kids their presents, he also stuffed his wife’s stocking with a check for $300 million.

She will still divorce him, though. “Tiger Woods’ scorned wife is telling pals that her philandering husband left a cool $300 million in her Christmas stocking – as reporters played a cat-and-mouse game hunting for him in New York Sunday. Elin Nordegren held her head high skiing in the French Alps over the weekend – and a stunning new report reveals why. Asked by pals what her tomcatting hubby got her for the holidays, Nordegren coolly declared, ‘Three hundred million dollars, thank you very much’,” the publication writes of the report now making the rounds.

“She’s 100% determined to split with Tiger. When she boasted of the ‘$300 million Christmas gift’ and then laughed, it was clear to everyone around her that she’s more focused than ever about moving on with her life,” a source is quoted as saying. Moreover, she’s not even letting him see his children right now, until matters are settled. “Elin feels that Tiger isn;t mentally well enough to spend time with her or the kids. Tiger wanted to see them for Christmas, but Elin went away skiing at a secret location in California and then fled to France for more snow and space,” the same tipster says.

Reports surfaced late last year had it that Nordegren was talking to her attorneys to see whether she could get $300 million in a divorce settlement, plus permanent custody of the children. Whether this and the reported Christmas gift are one and the same is not yet mentioned anywhere.

When a man cheats on his woman he automatically becomes "mentally unfit"

When did this stupid rule come into play?

Let the man see his kids Elin. Now, you're the one behaving like a sk..k.

To Chris Tmas: Tiger Woods has proved to the world what a low life scumbag he is by having had affairs with as many as 14 different woman during his short lived marriage. Myself I use to respect Tiger Woods but due to this situation I have no respect for the womanizer and loser by the name of Tiger Woods.

As far as I am concerned they should ban the Ahole from Professional Golfing permanently and as well all those that use him for sponsoring to quit using him. The best job for Tiger Woods is cleaning toilets at McDonalds for $8 an hour as that is all the Ahole is worth to pay.

Hellllooooo Mr Perfect! If imperfection makes you a scumbag then i guess 98% surrounded around you are scumbags. I bet your manager has slept with more than 14 women. Life of an athlete,not making it right but reality for most. Are you really paying attention to what really happened? He proved to world he can take over a dominated sport and become the best at it1 The last time i checked what you do at home does not make you who you are on your job. If that is the case then a whole lot of managers and associates would be fired . The sponsors are because he does something well and not what he does at home, even though i respect them because anyone knows you don't want negative publicity. Sounds like you are jealous over the amount he makes as any athlete, he deserve every dime he has made for himself. You forget just like so many other athletes how rich they make these companies and teams advertising......lol
