Tiger Woods' wife amped up split rumors over the weekend.

In her first public appearance since her husband's sex scandal, Elin Nordegren - mother to Sam, 2, and Charlie, 10 months - was spotted pumping her own gas Saturday in Florida.

Missing: Her wedding ring. Nordegren, 29, regularly wears her wedding ring in public.

The new Us Weekly (on newsstands now) reports that Elin could be moving back to her native Sweden. In late September, the former au pair took her kids to tour a lavish $2.15 million estate on its own private island in Vaxholm.

"She seemed excited about it but a little unsure," a close Swedish friend told Us Weekly.

She bought the house in her own name - without Tiger - and paid $850,000 more than the asking price. "She said it was an investment she was making on her own and Tiger wasn't involved," the friend said. "I felt something might be wrong."

On Friday, Woods -- who has been linked to at least 13 women -- released a statement saying he was "deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people." He also said that he is taking an "indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person."

    Move on Elin, get his money and find yourself a nice swedish guy who will adore you. There is plenty of fish in the ocean and I am sure Tiger will regret this if not now then in 20 years for sure.

    Some said that married is suppose to be sacred, is this in America? Let he/she who has not sinned throw the first ugly comments....

  • December 16, 2009 - 1:20pm Payne

    Let me say this about Elin: her ring may not be on her finger but beleive you me it is close by. She is acting like a spoiled bratt. Grow up. You are not special enough for your husband Tiger that he can't have affairs. If everyone divorced their husbands in holliwood, not one would be married. Tiger is young and any girl would sleep with him for free. Let Elin get a divorce, she will still be miserable. Tiger is sorry I'm sure and will come back strong with or without his wife. Tiger remember this since you are not black, now you know what the others think of you.

    why are the girls called hores, in this case in think tiger is the prostitute here just like every other man that cheats on the patner are. Elin should divorce tiger bcos am sure if Elin had cheated on him with more than 10 guys, nobody would have been on Elins side. men has to learn how to respect thire marriage, wife, kids and family for God´s sakes.

    uhh, Dinkys,your sounding pretty dumb.They have 2 young children together(that means they must have sex,hello?)Tiger is a sex addict.Dinkys, get educated,then talk!

    Tiger is in no way a loser, you people fell in love with this man, and when he cheated you all act like he cheated on you, get real people you all did the same thing for OJ simpson, you all fell in love with him and when the sh!t hit the fan with his ex-wife you all hated his guts. you bring this misery on yourselves, stay out of these people lives and let them make their own decision. its not your to make. as far as opinion none of you have license to prove a thing.

  • December 15, 2009 - 4:01pm Doesn'tMatter

    Clearly money can't buy happiness on either side right? I feel bad for both of them.

  • December 15, 2009 - 3:59pm Doesn'tMatter

    Erin Woods? It's Elin Woods. Tiger gets whatever he deserves. You brand yourself as an above board golfer and then do this? He clearly has issues, but this hurts his wife and kids. Look at the numerous sk.... he has been with. What is he thinking?

  • December 15, 2009 - 3:09pm Robin

    I wonder if the people who have posted comments would make the same comments if it was Erin Woods who was having affairs. Especially the people who think that Erin Woods should stay with him. Would you advise Tiger Woods to forgive and stay with Erin if she was having affairs?

  • December 15, 2009 - 2:52pm Chevon

    His wife should get all his money and the kids for what he has done to her. She is probably so hurt from him that it is going to be hard for to trust anyone in the future. And how do you explain to children why their father is not around anymore? Marriage is supposed to be your safe comfort zone. He should loose all his money for he has to done. He is a bad role model now for anyone. Shame on him and shame on anyone who says that Elin should stand by her man.

    the same way people see tiger, thats the same way the middle east sees our entire society. The moral decadence. (my sister said that)

  • December 15, 2009 - 2:39pm dinkys

    maybe he wasnt happy. Its been said he had a sexless life with her. Any girlfriend of mine who didnt give me sex would probably get cheated on too. Thats just a fact.

  • December 15, 2009 - 1:45pm Sooo Rich

    Poor thing. I hope she gets tons of money from that loser.

  • December 15, 2009 - 12:16pm Aye Myint

    I see all these people trying to make excuses for Tiger Woods claimimg divorce is not the answer, that Elin Woods should "stand by her man", marriage is sacred, etc. Yes, marriage should be sacred - but it's loser like Woods who has no respect for marriage that causes divorce, not his wife. And it's the tollerence of such behavior by idiots that makes losers think they can get away with it(and often times they do). So don't spout anymore useless nonsense. If more people viewed infidelity as something not to commit, instead of something to ask forgiveness for, there would be less divorces and marriage WOULD be considered sacred. He maybe the best golfer ever, or the winning, but as a human being, he's a pathetic loser. Idiots.

    he's a pig!

    JULIA SAID: "......Stand by your man Elin! MAke the whole world love him and obey him like a good wife should. this is your duty to God and as a wife. perhaps that is why the country is so screwed up. marriage is not considered sacred anymore......" Why, it appears you are correct, Julia. Marriage is no longer considered sacred. At least, Tiger certainly doesn't think it is. After all, he proved your point 13 times. P.S. Ouch. How did you get that bruise under your eye? Oh, never mind. I know you're a Good Wife.

    Divorce is not the answer,and we should not take it for granted when married.Marriage is a garden that needs water every single day otherwise his flowers dry out

  • December 15, 2009 - 8:27am RufusVonDufus

    I'll bet Lorena Bobbit could help Tiger end his addiction.

    I'll feel sad for what has happened to Tiger Wood due to his Extra marital affairs. I sympathise with his wife knowing the pain these could have caused her. Since Tiger has accepted his infidelity and probably apologised to his wife,he should be ready to face the shame these could have caused to his personality and his career. Indeed the scar may remain but the life of Tiger Wood and his Wife ought to go on. The past could have been dimmed by the present infidelity but i would urge Tiger wood to concetrate on the future,be a good husband and father to his family and avoid another pitfalls. On the other note we should not condemn Tiger wood to hell,we are not also perfect but we should help him pick up the broken pieces of his life.Divorce is not the answer,the answer is the change of Tiger Woods character and lifestyle,these can save their marriage
