Woods went into therapy, staying away from golf for five months, and he kept his counsel until 19 February. It was then that the 14-time major winner made an emotional apology for cheating on his wife in front of selected journalists and colleagues. “I was unfaithful, I had affairs, I cheated,” he said then. “What I did is not acceptable and I am the only person to blame. I stopped living by the core values I was taught to believe in.
“I knew my actions were wrong but I convinced myself that normal rules didn’t apply.
“I never thought about who I was hurting, instead I thought only about myself. I ran straight through the boundaries a married couple should live by.
“I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. “I felt I was entitled thanks to money and fame. I didn’t have to go far to find them. I was wrong and I was foolish.”
