Elin Nordegren Divorce With Tiger Woods In 'Final Meetings': Report (VIDEO)

Elin Nordegren Divorce Tiger Woods

First Posted: 07/01/10 10:36 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 05:55 PM ET

Elin Nordegren's "marathon" divorce meetings are in their "final" stages, RadarOnline reports, and an official split with Tiger Woods could occur soon. A source tells the web site that "the divorce is very close to being finalized."

Meanwhile, the Sun recently reported the alleged details of the couple's divorce terms. The British paper echoed previous reports, claiming that Nordegren could receive as much as $750 million. Additionally, the newspaper claims that Woods will only be able to introduce his children to a new woman if the two have married. In exchange, Nordegren will be permanently barred from talking about Woods's affairs -- in any medium.

The Sun also reports that Nordegren will get full physical custody of the children, but the couple will split legal custody, which would prevent Nordegren and the children's rumored move to Sweden, where she owns a secluded home.

In an interview on Wednesday, Woods said he would be "up front and honest" when describing his sex scandal with his children. (Scroll down for video from the interview.) He also likened his troubles to his own father's alleged personal failures. He begins play at the AT&T National -- endorsed by a sponsor who dropped him during his downfall - on Thursday.

UPDATE: TMZ reports that Woods "will be a single man by the end of day tomorrow" and claims that the $750 million settlement figure is inaccurate. Click here for their full story.

Today, August 23. They are now officially divorce. Sad and a good day for everybody. Reactions. http://bit.ly/dra3Jf

Tiger paid Rachel Uchitel over 10M to keep silent, obviously his wife who he betrayed is entitled to a lot more than 100M, I'd say 300M sounds about right.

So, as many know, I'm a numbers guy. I got curious as to this and ran said numbers.

So Elin is asking for 750 million dollars for 5 years of marriage. According to statistics, the average couple has sex 127 times per year.

With five years of marriage, that works out to 127 x 5 = 635 times Tiger theoretically partook of his lovely wife's carnal charms whilst betrothed. Now given his ravenous appetite for extracurricular poon, his actual marital numbers may quite likely be much lower - but on the other hand, he does have a demonstrably above-average libido, so let's call it a wash and just say 635 for purposes of this exercise.

Breaking it down, $750,000,000/635 = US$1,181,102.36 for each time Tiger got it on with Elin. A million bucks a shot is like ... well ... I'll let you fill in your own golf/hole joke here.

Talk about digging for gold.

It's the entitlement mentality. It's quite clear she didn't earn any of it - she just happened to be around when the guy that was sleeping with her brought it in. Therefore, she "deserves" it.

Given her lack of education (not even an Associate's degree), her sigma-5 looks and no discernible personality what DID you think Tiger married her for? :P

Pretty obvious what you think women are good for. Please, no one made Tiger get married. He did all of this to himself. I don't think Tiger feels half as sorry for himself as you do. Your "numbers " left out the number two (2) as in children. Part of what Elin is staking out, in money and terms, is in regards to the 2 children that Tiger forgot or was temorarily ignoring. I bet Tiger has no problem with the 100 million (not 750) that he'll pay. By all accounts, Elin is a fantastic mother. And, so far, the only person in this whole matter worth spending the money on, has been Elin... she hasn't uttered a word. She is still the closest thing to a friend he has and don't think he doesn't know that.

C'mon, Elin. Settle for $500M instead and retain the right to dish the dirt.

Tiger?...4 over at the A T and T National? Shoulda kept your Titleists in your pants. Get over it and start playing golf. One out of 2 marriages end in divorce. You only have a spot on the market in being the best golfer in the world. Get over this divorce!

I don't think you can fault Elin for tiger's extramarital escapdes which presumably even b4 they got married (his promiscuity). To back this up, bear in mind that even the unlimited sexual fantasies of porn stars couldn't satisfy him. There is no way Elin could have hanled such a desire. Tiger just wanted variety, which he got at a not-so-wonderful cost. It was just a matter of time with his utter reckless behavior. Really sad. Been a fan for over ten years. Still a fan, but ....

You know you haters.. she KNEW about things from the get go..he married her as a business deal.. not that what he did was right but NONE of our business. She got paid pretty well for five years and that isn't even child support. Leave the guy alone! He is young, he has allot of money, which he earned since 3 years old.. HE earned it.. leave Tiger alone.. and besides how does anyone know other old golfers didn't have affairs.. no body cared.. Golf was nothing until Tiger..get over your hate and your empty hearts.

And how would you know what she knew?
You cannot seem to tell the difference between a person's financial life and their romantic life. Here's a shocker for you...most people marry for love. Not all maybe, but most.

Today there are a thousand more media outlets. We only learned of John McCain's multi affiars via John McCain when he wrote his book. Palmer and Niklaus could have been just as indiscreet......but perhaps lucky they were not playing with the media frenzy that exist today. We certainly heard of Arnold's drinking problem...imagine the type of media that would bring today?

Oh look, another pro athlete who is overpaid insane amounts of money screwing his entire life up, what a surprise. The wealth, fame and getting to live your dream career doing what you love and getting paid millions for it is just not enough is it.. the poor guy? Elin, you can do better in the way of a real man, not just another greedy, self righteous Republican with money.

So what makes you think Tiger is a Republican, or even a Democrat for that matter?

I guess that speech he gave on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial celebrating Obama on the day before our current president's swearing-in must have confused you.

Overpaid? His video game netted over 700 million dollars, His Nike presence has netted over 650 million. What makes him overpaid? If my name raised over 1 billion dollars for just two companies and I was only worth 600 million, I would feel I was underpaid. How much revenue does your name bring in?

Why should anyone care about any of this? I am embarrassed that I click on it and more embarrassed that I read some of the comments. There are more important things in the world like whether the Jayhawks will win the NCAA Tournament in 2011 like they should have this year.

Glad to see her moving on with her life. He should have never gotten married because of his inability to be with one woman, his wife. As far as his father's transgressions are concerned, it seems that he should have learned from those lessons and the pain that his mother must have gone through. Enough said about Tiger. He's done and should be.

Tiger's mother was not the one his father cheated on. Her role might have been the subserviant Asian bride. It's likely Tiger's lack of respect for women was learned from his father's treatment of his mother; Tiger has shown no more respect for the women he cheated with than they have for themselves.

Elin: "Honey, am I the only woman you make love to?"
Tiger: "Why does everyone keep asking me that!"

Blaming your lack of character on the Old Man is pretty sad, Tigger! Gosh, you think you would have learned somethingi at the Rehab place other than finger pointing.
