Tiger Woods emerges!
In the first photo of the embattled golfer since the November car crash that launched news of more than a dozen affairs, Woods, 34, was seen jogging near his home in Orlando, Florida, on Wednesday.
Recap how Tiger's troubles began last November
Woods -- wearing a black cap, a black Nike shirt and gray shorts -- was jogging with an unidentified friend.
The new photo comes hours after his agent announced he plans to make a public apology this Friday. (In December, he released a statement saying he was taking an indefinite break from golf in order to save his marriage with Elin Nordegren, having admitted "infidelity.")

Woods "will be speaking to a small group of friends, colleagues and close associates," the statement reads; the golfer will "discuss his past and his future and he intends to apologize for his behavior."
Although the press conference will not be an "open media event," arrangements are being made to "pool" the athlete's remarks to the wider media.

It will be Woods' first confirmed public appearance since his adultery scandals erupted over the Thanksgiving 2009 weekend.
Tell Us What You Think
60Tiger stay with your family you have adorable kids and beautiful wife .pray to get your nopmal life .
I think everyone always do something without thinking, Tiger wood just like other who make a lot of money and do something wrong that he admits, but if he just like us, the media probably does not care because of no benefit for the media, that's why the media is killing him and his family, not only him did. when u comment something, you don't know what is going on with his family, maybe there is something wrong with his wife, maybe she never loves him , just wait time and try to get his money as much as she can. so u don't know them, either i am. Just let him learn what he did and move on! At least he is a good golfer on this world!.
Tiger! U R back, Yea!!!! Our prayers are with you and your fam. You guys can do this with God's help. Make your Daddy proud kiddo! We do all luv ya
To all who have commented this is a private affair, between Elin and Tiger, I disagree. I understand the pain his wife is experiencing. I do think that Tiger is a national celebrity and the way his sponsors judge him is a message to all, including our children. When a person in the spotlight behaves with such disrespect, not only to Elin, but to all women, there should be consequences. I know we shouldn't be judgemental, but he has a daughter, a mother and a wife. He shouldn't be treating women like toys, for his amusement. Now, to all those women who knowingly knew he was married and proceeded with no scruples, well that's another story. Women should be kinder to one another, especially when they know the man has a family and children. I'll never look at Tiger with the same respect. On the other hand, I wish him well.
I must have missed something because never did I ever think that Tiger Woods, anyone who endorsed him, ELIN, reporters, or anyone else is "squeaky clean". So, for me, Tiger got paid for doing what he does better than anyone else. I can not wait to see him getting back to it.
TIGER'S A CHEATER ! YOU SUCK !
not that I condone his behavior, the only person he owes an apology to is his wife....the media has no business in any of this at all
I here ya Tiger.. Lets play some Golf man!! You do have loyal fans.. Good Luck
A good father doesn't try to give the mother of his kids sexually transmitted diseases. You guys are so pathetic to be so afraid to actually have an opinion. What the heck are you hiding?? He would not have been so successful financially but for his image - its all tied up together. Hey MON--"we've all done something??" sorry but I have never slept with 14 different women on my wife ok? We all make mistakes?? How about all the time he spent with those women, he could have been spending with his wife and kids?? You guys are so very sad!
The comments made by Jay were spot on. I couldn't say it better. People think he's a bad husband but a good father. A good father doesn't spend his free time away from home with cheap w-ores. A good father is at home with his kids and his wife. Nothing more to say. A great golfer without any doubt but for the rest a complete loser. Morals principles and values make a decent person.
This is a picture that was set up by Tiger and getty images. Not a paparazzi pic. He is controlling how everything is put out there...leave him Elina and take it all!
I am excited that he is back. I feel everything that has happen in his personal life is between him and his wife. There is a separation between his personal life and his professional life. He may be a horrible husband, but still he is the best golfer in the WORLD. Be encourage Tiger, we've all done something to hurt someone or even ourselves. "Those without sin cast the first stone".
This will be very interesting!
over him!!! he will always be looked at as Tiger the dog!
This emergence is such a joke. He spent so much time away hoping people would just forget, and focus on his golf. He's just a great golf player, everything else about him is a fraud. He's doing it in front of a few friends and colleagues...he should be doing it in front of the full press, and let them ask questions. He doesn't seem the need to "protect" himself from anything else. Loser!
The only people he needs to apologize to is Elin and God, its none of our business.
The man is a no morals, lying creep and ALL of his sponsors should have dropped him. He could have killed wife Elin by giving her AIDS, or given her HIV, STD'S, what a sick, horrid human being this man is. I wish he'd stay away forever. The ONLY reason he is saying he is sorry is because he lost sponsor money and got caught, otherwise he'd still be seeing all of his h0's and probably 5 more new ones. The man is a bad dad, when was he ever home? A married man w 2 kids, out in the clubs all the time playing poker, sex with all these different women. Yeah, he cares about his kids, treated their mom with respect--what joke of trash he is. She can't follow him 24/7 and he WILL be texting and on the phone again, like this sick creep can be trusted.
Okay so he cheated numerous times, it's his and wife's business not ours. Let him deal with this situation in peace. We have no right to judge.
Tiger has made millions for being the worlds best golfer...it did help his image he "was" squeaky clean! People are people so why should we judge him. He still is the best so I hope he has had time to work it out and keeps doing so. Come back when you are ready Tiger, take care of your family! Still think he is awesome! Only reason I watch golf w/ my husband!
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS, DON'T BUY HIS PRODUCTS TO BEGIN WITH OR DON'T BUY HIS PRODUCTS IF YOU DESPISE HIM THAT MUCH! CONSUMERS BUY WHAT THEY WANT AND SUPPORT WHO THEY WANT! MOST I'VE TALKED TO STILL SUPPORT HIM AND DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT HIS PERSONAL LIFE! WORD OF ADVICE: DON'T TAKE OTHER PEOPLE'S PERSONAL LIVES AND TURN THEM INTO YOURS PERIOD!!! GO TIGER AND ELIN!
