PrintPhilandering golf legend Tiger Woods is getting a last chance at romance from his betrayed wife.
Elin Nordegren has given Woods six months to prove he won't cheat on her -- for what would be the umpteenth time -- in order to save their troubled marriage, a new report reveals.
Elin -- who picked up Tiger last week as he left a Mississippi sex-addiction rehab clinic -- "has been convinced there is hope for the marriage," a close friend of the wife told Britain's Sunday Mirror newspaper.
"The doctors told her she shouldn't underestimate Tiger's ability to learn new coping skills and grow as a person. And they say he has made remarkable progress," the friend said.
Elin, 30, visited Woods during his recent stint at the Gentle Path treatment center in Hattiesburg and participated in counseling sessions with him.
"It is so hard for Elin," the Swedish stunner's friend told the Mirror. "The reality is there is still a lot of love left for Tiger. That's why she is willing to give him another chance.
"She would hate herself if she just gave up on him. But one thing is for sure," warned the pal. "Elin won't be duped twice."
Woods, 34, had affairs with up to a dozen or more women during his marriage to Elin.
The Mirror reported that Elin's friends have said she has locked up her wedding ring in a safe, with one gal pal saying she will only put it back on her finger "when she has made up her mind what the future holds."
Elin has been stung by allegations that she wants to milk Woods for a divorce settlement worth hundreds of millions of dollars. "There is not enough money in the world to buy Elin's love," her friend said. "After five years of marriage, she feels she has to try to make things work."
Elin was spotted in Florida yesterday carrying presents -- apparently for their son, Charlie, who was celebrating his first birthday. The couple also have a 2-year-old daughter, Sam.
Meanwhile, Woods' caddie is shooting down reports that the golfer will return to competition at the Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona, which begins Feb. 17.
"The stories stating Tiger will return at the match play have no truth to them," Steve Williams told an Australian newspaper.

TScott: I know that after reading all this anti male misandrist nonsense for a month that it sort of warps the real facts in this incident but Tiger is not charged with any crime and there are no charges to drop. It was Elin who is guilty of attempted murder and Tiger was a fool to not have her charged. Of course, there is a statute of limitations so he may change his mind anytime within the next 5 years and charge her. She better watch her p's and q's from now on and keep her mouth shut or she'll be in an orange jumpsuit sharing a cell with Big Bertha.

And let me say once again because we have a lot of stupid females here reading this tabloid. Woods committed no crime. Elin is guilty of assault with a deadly weapon, battery and attempted murder.

Divo: Elin should end up poor and in the gutter for the damage that she has caused Tiger. She attacks him while he's asleep with a 9 Iron and knocks out his teeth and then pursues him in a golf cart when he tries to escape and causes him to crash into a tree nearly killing him. When the cops and ambulance arrive she then goes into the house and gets a legal prescription bottle to make it look like Woods was drugged when he hit the tree and to cover for her criminal attack on him. Elin belongs in an orange jumpsuit and in a cell with Big Bertha. That would straighten this b1tch out fast.

It would actually be referred to as a "post nup" but they do exist. Ask Donald Trump. The problem would be why sign one unless it is better than the prenup because it surely means divorce is imminent.
