Here’s the photo you’ve all been waiting for; what, you haven’t? Well here it is anyway. The National Enquirer — those fun folks who started this whole thing in Australia back in November — have what they say is a photo of Tiger Woods strolling outside a sex rehabilitation clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi (no, that’s not it on the right). I’m linking to it after the jump, and like any Bigfoot photo or police mugshot of Mel Gibson, you can examine the blurry image and make up your own mind on if it’s real. Several news sources are trumpeting it as the first sighting of Tiger in the wild since before Thanksgiving, and he’s described as “scruffy.” Well, why not? Gillette was one of the first sponsors to dump him.
Here are the photos. (Please observe the No Loitering sign. Who loiters outside of a sex rehab clinic?).
From Radar Online, which ran the photos today:
These are the exclusive first photos of Tiger Woods in rehab for sexual addiction at a clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. As RadarOnline.com reported he checked into the Gentle Path program, part of Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services.
The photos of Tiger appear in the new issue of the National Enquirer.
OK, I’m heading to the Safeway to steal purchase a copy legally. Anybody want anything while I’m there?
And an eyewitness confirmed there was no doubt that the man in the photograph is Tiger, saying that while he was bundled up, the golfer was recognizable in person.
Tiger is living without a roommate in one of the cottages at Gentle Path. The Enquirer reports that he checked into the six-week program on December 30.
Author Benoit Denizet-Lewis, who has written a book on sex addiction, said earlier this week that sources told him Woods indeed has checked in to the Hattiesburg clinic.
Question: Did the photographer earn $500,000 for his efforts? Sweet payday for a grainy image from a hundred yards off.

Ladies and gentleman.., lets move on. I hope that Tiger finishes the treatment and does well, and I’ll be glad when Tiger is back on the golf course. Tiger, I wish you well. Mike in Montana

Eldrick…not much of an athlete myself, but when this old 6’2″ white boy was a kid, I could effortlessly two-hand slam on the fly. I was never good at dribbling a basketball though. Refrigerator Perry at 6’1″ and over 300lbs could dunk. FYI…I’ve never set foot on a golf course, but I might when I get to old too swing a tennis racket.
Kate…ROTFLMAO!!!!….handicap!!!!….only in golf!!!!!
And yes, athletes in several sports have used laser eye surgery to correct their vision to better than 20/20. Is it cheating? I don’t know…..read up on it yourself here:

They “routinely” vote Tiger as best athlete ever? Where do you get your facts??? Ha!! What a joke…maybe Michael Jordan may have once said he was good athlete (then again they’re great pals, so…) but I’d like to see where all those players I mentioned “routinely” voted him as the best athlete ever. Please…now you’re just blowing smoke….

Hey Jack: If you’re kidding, you’re a joke cause it ain’t funny. If you’re not kidding you have some serious mental problems. Either way go crawl back under the rock you live under. Give us humans a break!

Tiger has proved his atheletic ability and sexual prowls, too;
what other athelete or chaser can do what Tiger can do?
Does disliking Tiger and not wanting to be like him,
make dislikers sing the “Goodie Goodie Two Shoes” hymn?
I bet no matter how perfect “finger pointers” think they are,
Tiger doesn’t want to be like them.
So let the hypocrits point their fingers,
and dislike Tiger as much as they desire;
they should check their pulse and heart rate,
then look to see if their hatred and jealousy are afire!

Why is it when someone speaks the Truth they have mental problems. What I have I said that is anything but the Truth. He has Given Golf a BLACK EYE. Man UP BOY and explain yourself.
What the F**K is wrong with you people. The GUY is nothing more than a BIG FU*kING LOOSER and the only reason he is a BIG FL is because he has ALOT OF $$$$$$$. The Press has PUT him in the position that he is in and he is in the position because he makes them alot of money and he makes alot of money. So What Gives.
IF you dont want to live in the spot light, go back and hide under the rock you came from otherwise live up to what YOUR image is and MAN UP BOY stop Hiding.
HE HAS GIVEN GOLF a BLACK EYE. There has never been a scandal this bad associated with any Golfer to date.
Funny how people cant stand to read and understand the truth, take off the Rose colored glasses and look at the BLACK EYE he has given to Golf and all the WHITE MEN THAT BUILT IT.

The truth according to who? The guy is human, meaning he’s capable of making mistakes. The fact that he’s taking care of his business in his own way is none of your concern. Finally, you’ve obviously got problems with race. Why don’t you take your ignorant ******* and hang out with all the other moronic crackers in your neighborhood, where you can all feel inadequate together. Dat da trut, homey!

Just wandering: why Woods life is everybody’s business!!! Why everybody can’t stay coldharded when hears news about Tiger’s life!? Why it’s so hard to undestand all this is a big a$$ promotion! MASS MEDIA do job they suppost to do. Every single time Tiger’s name appea on a screen or newspaper, it brings money to him, to TV channels, to magazines, to everyone who made theirselfs involved in it.
If u people so interested in somebody’s personal life – just look around. Do u know how many guys live the same life like Woods! They have wifes, children, girlfriens, friends with benefits and atc at the same time. They sleep around for years, but no nosy a$$es interested in it, becouse those are not famous, and don’t have that much money like Woods.
So, MASS MEDIA bought u people (u buy magazines to reed about Tiger Woods, u watch TV if it shows Tiger Woods, u go see the games if Tiger Woods participating, songs end up being popular if they are about Tiger Woods and atc). He is just a NATIONAL HERO!
TIGER, this comment to u: I do undestand if u really sick like u said, I’ve been through that. And if u really want out, just pray to God. He’ll help!!!
