"Elin Maria Pernilla Nordegren is a former Swedish model. Her mother, Barbro Holmberg, is a politician and the former Swedish migration and asylum policy minister, and the current Governor of Gävleborg County. Her father, Thomas Nordegren, is a radio journalist who served as a bureau chief in Washington, D.C. Nordegren and her sister worked odd summer jobs...to finance their studies. She began modeling in 2000, appearing on the cover of Cafe Sport magazine in 2000. ...Woods had asked (golfer Jesper Parnevik) for a year to be introduced to Nordegren, who was seeing someone else at the time. "She had no interest in Tiger and he was OK with that," Mia Parnevik said. "There was a big line of single golfers wanting to meet her. They were gaga over her." She had hopes at the time of becoming a child psychiatrist." Kudos to you DK, for proving to us in post after post how Elin was nothing but a non-career having or wanting, lowly nanny, baby-spouting, non $ marriage contributing gold-digger spouse who jumped at the first chance to get with and marry rich man Tiger...........all because he offered her a life "she could only dream about". Never-mind her dream was to be a child Psychiatrist, or her "dream life" you keep touting included sharing her husband's dick with 20 other vaginas belonging to strippers, porn stars, waitresses and hoes. Nice. Those big cold mansion walls must've kept her real warm at night. (ps: Her sister went on and fulfilled her dream to become a lawyer while Elin got sidetracked, you know, pumping out babies and eating bon-bons.)
Absolutely wrong, Tiger is ranked 25 as of now and was never ranked below 53 even at his worst. Again it is easily verifiable that he has played only 9 tournaments in 2011 and only 13 in 2010 DUE TO INJURIES AND HIS 4TH KNEE SURGERY. Tiger usually plays right around 20-22 tournaments a year. He is attracting sponsors again because he won for the first time in two years last month and has been showing positive results in the past few months due to finally being healthy. If anything being on the golf course was a haven from all the chaos and his mindset has always been his best asset. It is also false that his appearance fees for oversees tournaments is less, PGA tour players are not allowed to receive appearance fees in U.S. PGA tour events. You are also waaaay off regarding his endorsements, he has only 1 European endorsement. He only has 2 foreign endorsements, one in Japan, and the other is Rolex, who were only too eager to jump in once Tag Heuer ended their relationship because Rolex sponsors a season opening tournament in Abu Dhabi that they have been trying to get Tiger to come to for years, not because they are less concerned about adultery. Lo and behold Tiger is playing that tournament this year. You really should not speak on matters you clearly know very little about. Nike Golf, which signed Woods in 1996 and built its golf division around Woods. EA Sports (Electronic Arts), makers of the Tiger Woods PGA Tour franchise of video games, and the Tiger Woods Online game. Rolex, the watch makers. Fuse Science, sports drinks and "energy" nutritional products Kowa, a diversified Japanese company whose pharmaceutical products include a pain medicine for which Woods does ads that air in Japan. NetJets, which offers fractional ownerships of private jets. TLC Laser Eye Centers, the vision-correction company whose doctors perform laser-vision surgeries. Upper Deck, the sports cards and collectibles company.
I would rather be married to Tiger, live the life, travel around the globe 1st class, get a US citizenship, then smash his head with golf club, get a 100 mil and possibly a great book deal out of it than being a jaded stressed out child Psychiatrist that listens to bunch of spoiled brats about their BS anxiety and attention deficit issues (and this is coming from straight as arrow hetero, lol). Either way you look at it, she won, I bet she is not regreting all the way to the bank, lolz, 100 mil, woot, woot!
I don't what your point is. She was a model long before they met. When he met her she was nannying. Marrying him did not put a dent in or slow down her progress to become a psychiatrist. In fact being married to someone with Tiger's wealth made it tremendously easier than had she had to do it on her own. What do her parents positions in Sweden have to do with anything? I never said she came from the trailer park but please stop pretending she did just as well without him. Bottom line is Ellin is worth a 100 mill and all she did was take some baby gravy and popped out two kids. Nothing more nothing less. The woman didn't cure cancer she didn't build homeless shelters. She was a bum who made good. Good for her that she met a wealthy guy and took a chunk of his money. Its the American way lol.
Mental note don't try to argue with a lawyer who has access to google. Its like bringing a knife to a gun fight lol.
Who did he run to?................. ... Truth is....he threw away a wife who truly loved and supported him.
He got injured and she was their for him and that's worth a 100 mill? Good to know affection and compassion are for sale lol. Small price to pay to be multu multi millionaire. You act like she gave him a kidney knock it off lol.
Where are you getting the 100 mil? Total bogus over inflated number. No book deal - they agreed on that. You don't know if she is a US citizen...she could still be a Swedish citizen and legal US resident. Just because you hate kids - not every one does. But it's striking to me that you think that's she wanted in all this. You think she wanted to fly the globe ad nauseum - and that's why she married him? I doubt she is happy in how her life turned out - barring her children. No matter how much her bank account says, I'm betting she'd trade it in to have her husband be faithful to her, loving, and HOME with her and their kids, and able to sit at a $200 dining room table with him and their kids and eat a dinner together.
You said she contributed nothing to the marriage but babies. I say otherwise. And stop with the 100 million bullshit amount. My goodness!
In that last line that's what you want you can't speak for her. A woman of privilege as you tried to describe her before usually wants a lot more than boring nightly dinners on a 200 dollar table. And I believe the 100 million dollar settlement is well documented.
I NEVER said she did "just as well". I was showing you that she had her own hopes and aspirations, and was getting her education. Wow, you're getting more disgusting in your disdain for her -so "she was a bum" now? Even though she worked hard to pay for her studies when frankly her parents were wealthy enough that she didn't have to? They raised their daughter right. She was no bum, not a gold digger, not a slag and she loved her husband. You should wish you meet a woman like her to be by your side.
By contribution I meant fiscally or even in the keeping up of the home and childcare. The reason I keep bringing up the money is because I don't like this nonsensical notion that a woman's mere presence is worth her weight in gold. Its horseshit.
Lol, I love kids, never said hated them, just don’t wanna be their shirk K, like I said either way you look at it she won, she can buy her happiness all the way to Turks and Caicos Islands, lol. Tho, I do completely agree with you that Tiger fucked up big time on cheating on her
In divorce settlements, it's not equal to her "presence" in the marriage. It's what is deemed as the "accustomed to" lifestyle. It applies equally to men and women in settlements.
In comparison she definitely is a bum and you showed me nothing that suggests that she couldn't still pursue her dreams while married to him. If anything his money provided the means and his name the reputation for her to go the finest medical school to do what she wanted. She chose to be a rich famous man's wife. He didn't force her into it. . The man didn't hit her over the head with a golf club.... wait. If I am ever blessed enough to be in Tiger's position I wouldn't get married. I'd have kids with someone but that's it. Marriage is overrated. At this point i'd do it to build with someone.
A professor from Duke University had wrote a book called The Passion of Tiger Woods. Has anyone read it?
