Control freak Woods doing things his way again

TIGER WOODS has yet to utter a word, and yet the boundaries he has set for today’s announcement are already under attack by some members of the media. On the other hand, many fans just don’t care – and want the world’s No. 1 golfer back on the greens.

The trigger point: The champ’s agent, Mark Steinberg, informing the Associated Press “a small group of friends, colleagues and close associates” – along with six hand-selected reporters – will be permitted to join Woods at 11am local time (4pm Irish time) at the TPC Sawgrass Clubhouse in Florida, where he “plans to discuss his past and his future and he plans to apologise for his behaviour,” according to Steinberg, and the golfer’s spokesman, Glenn Greenspan.

According to his website: “Tiger plans to discuss his past and his future, and he plans to apologise for his behaviour. While Tiger feels that what happened is fundamentally a matter between him and his wife, he also recognises that he has hurt and let down a lot of other people who were close to him. He also let down his fans. He wants to begin the process of making amends, and that’s what he’s going to discuss.”
