Tiger Woods‘ return to rehab may not be sex-related after all—according to a new report, the golfer has checked in at The Meadows in Arizona to battle drug dependency, namely to sleeping aides Ambien and Vicodin. Though Woods denied using performance enhancing drugs in his public apology last week, he notably ignored rumors involving recreational or prescription drug abuse.”In [sex] therapy, Tiger blamed a lot of his cheating behavior on his drug addiction, saying that the drugs were responsible for impairing his judgment,” a source told the Enquirer.
Several of Tiger’s mistresses have commented on his alleged drug use, with Rachel Uchitel reportedly telling friends the pair indulged in “crazy Ambien sex.” ”He wasn’t a healthy guy. He couldn’t sleep and would stay up all night,” said call girl Lordeana Jolie last month. Woods has yet to comment publicly on any matters since his TV appearance last week.

Why wouldnt he ger addicted to vicodan and ambien after the surgeries he had ? you people make me sick. will you everleave him alone or are yo so sick for nes yoou would crawl under his bed to find out if he and his wife still had sex. all of you go crawl under a rock and take a good look at your selves.
Honeybun, Not everyone who takes pain medication after surgery get addicted. Those of us who take them AS PRESCRIBED don’t. Most of us also don’t have the notoriety of Tiger and are able to convince drs. to give us refills ad nauseum to continue an addiction way past the point where we should be using other methods to combat any lingering pain we might have. I have been in recovery for 25 years and work in the field of addiction. I may know a bit more about the subject than your starry-eyed letter indicates that you do.
Tiger is a looser. Now everyone knows what many already suspected. For all of you celeb worshipers I say, “when are you people going to wake up?” These are not the best among us but actually some of the worst. If you want to look for idols, look locally to people you know have good character and live respectable, truly noteworthy lives. The hardest thing in the world to do is wake up everyday and work hard and live a moral life, not hit golf balls around for 6 hours a day. What a joke.
He is a total fraud and deserves no second chance of any type. He lied to his family, his girlfriends, and to those who look up to him (remember his family first statements) ad nauseum. What makes me sick is the blame game, the drugs were responsible for his behavior? Sorry Tiger, I have no doubt you are living in a world of regret, but take responsibility for your bad behavior and don’t attempt to placate it with drugs. Remember you made the decision to betray your family.
THANK YOU MATTHEW! These people are human beings stop putting them on pedestals. This whole story was not even news to me. Because you can hit a ball in a hole, shoot a ball in a hoop, run fast or tackle hard does not make you an idol or a God, just an athletic human. Stop teaching your children to idolize these people. You don’t know them! Get a life people.
PS The same goes for actors and musicians.
I’ve seen him looking quite bleary-eyed and frankly ^$`%+“+*!&)%!*_ ty-faced sometimes, usually at tournaments that he doesn’t give squat about like The Players Championship.
Why doesn’t anyone say anything about the tramps that did what they did? They knew he was married and yet the “gold diggers” still did not say no. Yes he is grown man but the blame the “tramps” just as much.
For all of you PERFECT people, he’s doing the right thing, now let him make his amends.
Wood’s just keeps digging his hole deeper, the more he talks. He needs to shut up. Now, he is using drugs as his excuse for his &~(!(_%&$*~~*~*#~ circus?
It’s so funny how everyone likes to play “GOD” Who are you peole to judge this man? He is of flesh and blood. Do you know what that mean?….HUMAN. Excuse me! no of you peole have never LIED, CHEATED,STEAL, you are all just perfect>. Well, I hope you don’t live in a “GLASS HOUSE”. There are people who are not in the eyes of fame that have these same problems. Does that make them less of a person?..NO. They have their issues, their own demonds to fight. In this society we look towards people with fame and we glorify them and when they mess up, we kick them into the ground. This man is human, no one told you to worship him. Yes, he is good @ glof, but when you idolized someone as if there are a god and then you get let down, you want to throw stones. He is a man, not “GOD” so yes the man can be hooked on drugs, be a sex addict or what the hell ever. People are getting hooked on pills but, just because someone used ita nd didn’t get hooked dosen’t mean the other person can not. I think the biggest issue here is, we think celebrities can do no wrong. Wake up peole!! We are of the flesh, we sin everyday. Whether we think on it or act on it, we sin. So for the love of good, stop riding the man shaft and let the man answer for his own sins. Some of you who are slandering the man, I am sure you have a back yard that needs to be sweapt. So stop trying to sweep his back yard and sweep your own.
Thanks Matthew and Sistaagirl, well said! I couldn’t agree more. It is time we gave attention and credit to those members of society who actually do something meaningful.
THE PRESS HAS TO REALLY BE SCRAPING THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL TO PUBLISH A FACT BASED ON WHAT ONE OF TIGERS EX *()!^#&_%!$$&))^@ S OR EX PROSTITUTES SAY. THESE SLUTS ARE ANGRY BECAUSE THEY WILL HAVE NO MORE PAY DAYS, SO WHO CAN BELIEVE ANYTHING THAT THEY SAY. TIGER WILL NOW KNOW THAT HE IS BLACK, AS THE MEDIA WILL NOT BE FORGIVING OF HIM AS THEY WOULD A WHITE GREAT ATHLETE. BARRY BONDS SMACKED OVER STERIODS, BASEBALL ALLOWS MARK MCGUIRE BACK IN AS A COACH AND ALL IS FORGIVEN. TIGER OWES NOTHING TO ANYONE BUT HIS FAMILY. ANYONE THINKING HE HAS TO APOLOGIZE TO *()!^#&_%!$$&))^@ S , IF ALL OF THE WOMEN WERE BLACK, WOULD YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY?
Well, he’s got to blame something. Might as well be pills. God, he has to grow up. Get some responsibility. Money sure can someone look good. Does he look puffy to you?
Im with the few others on this blog, to let him alone arleady! No one put President Clinton through this much grief when he cheated on Hillary! For goodness sakes why not throw stones at your own houses first, then judge others.
I’m a moron. I can’t believe I read this. there’s 5 minutes of my life I’ll nver get back.
tiger has herpes on his lip. lol good going tiger, kiss ur kid goodnight now
Havana Thinks Having taken Ambien, there is no way sex was increased. Sex B4 Ambien, not during bcuz it actually does work 2 make your ++!)@~&`)$_“() sleep. Tiger was doing Cocaine or some other stimulant and took Ambien to calm down and then was able to perform his sexual escapades. It’s no different than speedballs that killed John Belush…
Poor Tiger, he’s addicted to having sex with beautiful white women gimme a break he’s a cheating `^(&)^&+~#`+#!* who got caught dipping his putter in too many holes. I am glad sponsors are pulling away from him he should be banned from golf as well. The man much like most sports figures of today was worshiped by kids and much like his counter parts he gets to walk away scot free with no consequence for his action.Hmm kill your ex wife and boy friend walk away an innocent man, rape a girl in a hotel room buy your wife a huge diamond, walk away and still be worshiped bring guns into locker rooms, get caught using steroids, get caught with other drugs in your possesion, beat you wife, all crimes the average man would be locked up for many tears if not life for but these over paid sports figures get a free ride. I say no more the time has come to treat these fools like everyone else no matter how many steriod induced home runs, touchdowns, holes in one, etc. you can make they are just ordinary citizens who should be punished when they break the law not given huge raises and put even higher on a pedastil.
Replying to Tom Duncan: I agree with you 100%! This has gone on for too long. Good for you for saying it!
