Golfer Tiger Woods will reportedly give up his Orlando family home in his divorce deal.

The 34-year-old is to give his wife Elin Nordegren the Windermere house he once shared with her and their two children, according to RadarOnline.com.

The terms of the divorce settlement have now mostly been agreed, and a source said to the US website: “Elin had planned a trip in July but postponed it. Things were being worked out.”

Nordegren reportedly wanted the home in Jupiter but has now decided she wants their old home.

The source added: “It looks like Tiger is going to make the Jupiter Island home his permanent residence. It’s got a state-of-the-art gym and was built to his specs. And it keeps him just a few hours drive from his children.”

Tiger Woods’ alleged mistress Rachel Uchitel has returned to Celebrity Rehab, reports say.

Although it was only reported a day ago that Rachel had quit the fourth season of the VH1 reality show, it seems that she may have returned.

A source told UsMagazine.com that she is back on the show because she is too addicted to love.

It was revealed by TMZ.com that Uchitel had left the programme after she opened up about her dead father in a therapy session.

But now Rachel may have rejoined after her fellow cast members, including actor Eric Roberts and model Janice Dickinson, encouraged her to come back to the show.

Tiger Woods says there is

Troubled golf champion Tiger Woods says there is "zero connection" between the neck injury that forced him to withdraw from his latest tournament and his bizarre November car crash.

The soon-to-be-divorced love cheat told reporters that the pain in his neck had started bothering him two weeks before his big comeback at the Masters in Augusta.

No doubt eager to get back, the 34-year-old says he brushed it off as "no big deal".

However, he has now been forced to pull out of the final round of TPC Sawgrass amid fears that he may be suffering a "bulging disc" in his upper back.

"I’m at a point now where I just can’t go any more," he said at a Monday news conference.

It comes five months after the father-of-two was hospitalised after smashing his ?35,000 Cadillac Escalade into a tree, hed...

Reporters ignored rumours of Tiger Woods’ cheating to avoid upsetting him

Stories of Tiger Woods’ cheating were well-known for years – but reporters brushed them aside through fears of being kicked out of his inner-circle.

People magazine reporter Steve Helling admitted he never followed up stories of infidelities – nor did any other news organisations.

“Over the years, I had heard rumours of Tiger’s partying – drunken nights at the clubs, dirty dancing with other women, phone numbers slipped to pretty blondes – but I didn’t follow up on the tips,” he admitted.

Helling – who has now written a book called Tiger about the scandal – even claims a Florida club owner who saw Tiger “drinking and dancing with a woman who wasn’t his wife” in 2006 called several magazines with the story.

“No one returned his calls, and the one person he spoke with told him that they...

Tiger Woods faces barrage of sex scandal questions at Masters press conference

Tiger Woods has faced a barrage of questions about his infamous sex scandal for the first time.

A composed Woods told 200 reporters at The Masters in Augusta, Georgia, that he had been “just terrible to my family” and that his behaviour towards them had been “brutal”.

Woods also admitted that wife Elin would not attend the Masters to watch his golf comeback.

He took the podium at the famed course on Monday and was asked about going into rehab following the November 2009 crash and the revelations about his sex-life.

?I was in there for 45 days and it was to take a hard look at myself, and I did. I am a much better person for it than I was going in,? said Woods.

Asked what he was in rehab for, Woods said: ?That is personal, thank you.?

He was asked how he had won so many tournaments an...

Tiger Woods to face the press without any stage management in pre-Masters conference

Tiger Woods will finally face the press without any stage management in a pre-Masters news conference, it has emerged.

The shamed golfer has been criticised for controlling his communications with the public in his only appearances since the November 27th car crash that led to his fall from grace.

But now, after reading out a statement and carrying out two time-controlled interviews, it looks like he will finally face a room full of reporters with no restrictions.

The PGA have reportedly scheduled him to hold a press conference on April 5th in preparation for his return to golf at the Masters in Augusta.

Although he may refuse to answer questions about his personal life, reporters are likely to ask about it nonetheless.

There are no other interviews that day, suggesting he could face...

Tiger Woods’ Masters return to be biggest media spectacle in recent memory

Tiger Woods’ return to golf is likely to send television ratings through the roof.

The AP reports that CBS Sports president, Sean McManus, expects the Woods comeback from the depths of sex rehab and adultery to be one of the “biggest media spectacles in recent memory”.

CBS will televise Woods’ return in next month’s Masters.

McManus said he suspected only President Barack Obama’s inauguration ranked higher as a media event.

Woods’ return to competitive golfing was annouced this week and follows a four-month break from golf, set off by a car crash he had outside his Orlando, Florida home last year.

The first two rounds of the Masters [April 8-11] at the Augusta, Georgia National Golf Club, will be aired on ESPN, the report notes.

Tiger Woods changed his mobile number five times last year claims PGA pal

Tiger Woods changed his phone number five times in the space of a year, according to a PGA golfer who knew nothing of his affairs at the time.

The golfer, Mark Calcavecchia, has claimed that he and the disgraced golf star often exchanged text messages over the past year, but that it didn’t occur to him why Woods kept changing his number.

He said: “I didn’t really think about it, but in the course of last year he changed his number five times. The last time he did, I said, ‘Man, you change phone numbers more than I change underwear.’”

Calcavecchia also claimed that Woods was seeing another woman while he was engaged to wife Elin Nordegren.

He said: “I did know of a girl he was seeing in Phoenix. But I didn’t know the timeframe...
