It's a private matter
Actually, the vehicle accident involving Tiger Woods is not a private matter at all. For those few who live in hermit-like existence and haven't seen the news, Tiger Woods was involved in an accident while driving his Escalade SUV in which he apparently struck a tree and/or a fire hydrant. Allegedly, his wife used a golf club to break out a window to enable her to pull him out for treatment.
However, according to various media sources, this may have been domestic violence against Tiger by his wife, it may involve infidelity on Tiger's part and there's a woman who is allegedly Tiger's mistress who flew to Los Angeles so that famed attorney Gloria Allred can represent her. Why she needs representation is another matter entirely, but we'll wait for the inevitable Allred press conference.
Sorry Tiger, you're a public figure. You depend on this for much of the over $100 million per year that you earn and you can't be a public figure and then suddenly plead for privacy when something like this happens. This is the downside of living in the public eye, and you've handled it very badly.
*If* the allegations are true, you should have simply owned up to the error, and told people you were working it out with your wife. Talk to the cops about the accident and how it occurred and then put the whole thing behind you. All you are doing here is four-putting on a very easy green. Not very much like the Tiger Woods the world knows and loves. Although how much they will continue to love you in the face of what is to come has yet to be determined.
