    Elin speaks very good English. American enough sounding accent (heard from her 911 call when her mother collapsed). No culture barrier there. I heard she is VERY quiet, almost mute around people. Like she doesnt say a word to anybody at all around her, EXCEPT Tiger. So her not saying anything to media with her mother being her spokesman makes sense.

    Sounds like a typical Swede. We (I'm from Sweden as well) tend to be extremely quiet around people. At least until we get more comfortable.

    I have been told that people find me snobby when they first meet me, but that is so far from the truth.

    Elin is a very private person. I don't see anything wrong in that. I doubt you will ever see her on American talk shows such as Oprah and 60 minutes.

    QUESTION: How many Extra Sponsorships u think his 'Family Man' image helped him get? I mean he was knocking alot back before Elin.

    I think Elin's issue . . while i am sure the women is a problem . . .is that it is so fricking PUBLIC. If as Masters Flickvan says .. she is a very private person . .. I think it makes the embarrassment sting more.

    I have little doubt that Tiger with ReBrand himself
    and come back up on the money list.

    It is always embarrassing to be cheated on. Even as a non public figure, it is the most awful thing a person can go through. I think most of us have been in a previous relationship where someone cheated on us. I sure can relate to what she must be going through right now. Only in her case, it's a million times worse.

    It's true. Most American slang we call English isn't English.

    I think it's more of the fact that it was so many women, regardless of it being public or not. She'd be stupid to stay with him.

    well the fact that it is so many women for such a long time, especially while pregnant/starting a family.

    then to have it the top story around the world just multiplies it

    Yeah, the amount of women [for a married guy] and the way he went about it was/ is pretty demented.

    If you're boning an ugly p*rn 'star' when you have a hot Swedish wife at home -- well, you've got a problem. I wonder if he will show up at the red carpet premier of Tiger's Wood ?
