Just as it is with sponsor Accenture, is Tiger Woods’ marriage already over? Elin Nordegren was seen in public for the first time since Tiger’s car crash on Nov. 27, and one sharp-eyed photographer — they’re trained to look for such things, I suppose — noticed that she wasn’t wearing her wedding ring (dramatic music here). Elin was taking the couple’s two children to a Christmas party in Florida on Saturday, according to the London Sun, which ran the picture on Sunday. She stopped for some “petrol,” — can we start calling it that over here? — and her left hand was suspiciously naked. As you can see in the photo, that’s quite a rock, by the way.


Is Elin going the way of Accenture, Gillete and Gatorade?

But reports this weekend said Elin, 29, has already spoken to divorce lawyers and is planning a split in the New Year.

She hid her pain behind sunglasses as she made the car trip from the couple’s £1.7million home in Windermere with Sam, two, and Charlie, ten months.

A source said: “She’s putting on a brave face but she’s hurting terribly.

“Tiger is doing everything he can to save his marriage but I can’t see them getting through this. The wounds are too deep.”

As seen on a golf message board this morning: “Did Elin stop off and see Chumlee of Pawn Stars?

    Interesting how a guy on a street corner can offer a hooker $50 for services and gets thrown in the slammer, however, a multi-millionaire golfer can wire-transfer $10,000 for services to multiple women and it’s not also a crime…Hmmm…can you say “double standard” anyone?

    As long as we are all guessing about what T and E are really feeling, my guess is that if all E was there for was the money, she’d still be wearing her ring.

    No, if fact he said “money is A root of all evil”. Just one of many.

    And who are you to even decide this stoning or castrating? God? Or another idiot from Iran? Are you human? Oh, I forgot. You’re a religious, pious idiot mouthing off. Get a life.

    At first I hoped they could save the marriage. Now I just hope Elin runs as far and as fast as she can. He is a cold hearted snake and I am sure he will do the same to more women. I could never forgive and forget all the lies. If Elin stayed she would be a fool. I loved Tiger and now I am disgusted. He is lucky I wasn’t married to him because he wouldn’t be around to talk about it.

    Let’s put it this way …… Tiger’s lucky that he is not married to you. Or have you as one of his mistresses. He has better taste. What are you so judgemental about? It’s his life, not yours.
