Tiger Woods Speech Today - Public Statement

Tiger Woods apologized Today for having affairs and said he plans to return to the PGA Tour— but he didn't say when that would be.

Speaking for a bit more than 13 minutes from the clubhouse at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., near the PGA Tour's headquarters, Woods addressed about 40 people who were in the room, including his mother.
His wife, Elin, was not obviously present.

"Every one of you (in this room) has good reason to be critical of me," said Woods, who was wearing a black suit and blue dress shirt. "I want to say to each of you, simply and directly, I am deeply sorry for my irresponsible and selfish behavior I engaged in."

Using words such as foolish, selfish, embarrassed and unfaithful, Woods said he would be returning Saturday to an unnamed center for "more treatment and more therapy."

Woods, who is on an indefinite leave from the Tour, did not indicate when he might return to playing golf.

"I plan to return to golf one day. I just don't know when that day will be," he said. "I don't rule out that it will be this year. When I do return I need to make my behavior more respectfully of the game."
