they did what?! Celeb News & GossipAcknowledging that those gathered had supported him and now had cause to be critical of him, Tiger Woods publicly apologized Friday morning during a televised press conference.
"I want to say to each of you simply and directly: I am deeply sorry for my irresponsible, selfish behavior... I know people want to find out how i could be so selfish and so foolish. People want to know how I could have done these things to my wife Elin and to my children. And while I have always tried to be a private person, there are some things i want to say," Woods said from behind a podium.
"Elin and I have started the procress of discussing the damage caused by my behavior," he explained, adding, "My real apology .. will come from my behavior. We have a lot to discuss. What we say to each other will remain between the two of us."
The golfer broke his silence for the first time since his bizarre car accident on Nov. 27, during a controlled statement at the TPC Sawgrass golf course in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. Woods, 34, delivered his remarks in front of a handpicked audience. His mother, Kultida, was seated in the front row. Elin was noticeably absent.
Woods's reps apparently contacted the PGA commissioner Thursday to inform him that the golfer would be making his statement on Friday, as the scheduling coincided with a break from his sex rehab treatment.
While Woods broke his silence in Florida, his professional golf colleagues were competing in this year's WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship in Marana, Ariz., a tournament that Woods has won three times.
