In an attempt to distance myself from the hordes of media types who cannot talk About Tiger Woods without beginning each statement or paragraph about his marital troubles, his sexual addiction therapy, the accident, or performance enhancing drugs, I will simply say here on my blog....

Tiger Woods is playing in his fifth Masters as he continues to chase Jack Nicklaus for the most majors victories. 

You see, I was able to do it! To make it through a simple sentence about Tiger Woods without mentioning his marital troubles, his sex addiction therapy, the accident, or performance enhancing drugs...thrice anyway! lol

And his real name isn't "Tiger", it's Eldrick Tont Woods. Woods was born in Cypress, California, to Earl (1932–2006) and Kultida (Tida) Woods (born 1944). He is the only child of their marriage but has two half-brothers, Earl Jr. (born 1955) and Kevin (born 1957), and one half-sister, Royce (born 1958) from the 18-year marriage of Earl Woods and his first wife, Barbara Woods Gray.
