Tiger speaks
An unfortunate story, but assuredly not unknown. And if it had been handled better, the amount of speculation would have been much less.
A theoretical same day release:
"I am slightly injured, but do not expect it to affect my ability to play golf. I am taking the next month off to allow me time to recover. The accident was caused by my careless driving. My wife and I are going through a difficult time, and ask that you respect our privacy at this time."
A theoretical later in the week release:
"Thank you all for you concerns and well wishes. At this time I would like to publicly apologize to my wife for being briefly unfaithful to her several years ago. We are working through this issue, and I hope that she is willing to forgive me. She is a wonderful wife and mother to our two beautiful children, and I am blessed every day with such a wonderful life partner."
