$150M bet that he will stay faithful. Damn.
Good for them though. Hopefully his golf game follows suit.

Tiger bout to lose 350 M's
Tiger my ***** I hate it had to be him
***** you wasn't with putting on the green
***** YOU WASNT WITH ME PUTTING ON THE GREEN!!!
Of course this is simpin'. He doesn't get a pass just because she's his ex-wife and mother of his children.
In fact, he's Simpin' AND trickin'...
Let's be frank here, you really think he would stoop to these tactics if he were the Tiger of old? The Tiger on the fast track to being the first billion dollar athlete? The Tiger that is the number 1 golfer in the world? The Tiger that is regarded so highly and revered for his wholesomeness?
Nahhh.
The fact is, this Ellin chick is symbolic of everything he's lost. By reclaiming her, he achieves (psychologically and symbolically) everything he once commanded-- confidence, respect, earnings, etc.
He can train all he wants, but he will never reclaim his "throne" atop the golf world without her. Why? Because the thing that ails him is not of the body, but rather of the mind, stemming directly from his cheating scandal. By winning her over, convincing her to forgive him, he effectively overcomes that one adversary that bested him--the scandal--and with this, he can reclaim his confidence, the respect he lost, and the earnings he is, perhaps, entitled to.
The guy is a Stanford grad, so I'm sure he is smart enough to have realized her symbolic importance. I don't doubt that genuine love is playing some role in his desire to rekindle the romance that was lost, but I just think that he's doing this largely because of his competitive, male ego, spirit (the driving force behind his success, and the very thing that got him in trouble to begin with).
She is a significant part of this male ego (consider the psychological importance of a trophy wife), so much so that he realizes, knowingly or unknowingly, that his return to greatness is predicated on being able to re-conquer that missing, vital, piece of his masculine dominance-- his model-esque trophy wife.
So yeah, in Tiger's case, he's simpin' and trickin' to reclaim his greatness. Do the negatives of "trickin' and simpin'" outdo the positives of "reclaiming greatness"? Only time will tell, quite honestly.... For his sake, he better pray that keeps his **** in his pants.
She's an investment that he lost sight of. He's only attempting rectify his mistake.
...
Here's a thought... He loves her so much, he's willing to put his money where his mouth/heart is. Since he's already given her $100M and he's willing to put up another $350M, he has almost everything to lose if he does it again. This is about as big of a deterrent as you can have.
Another thought is that he made almost all of his fortune while he was with her. Perhaps part of the thought process is that he can at least get part of the $350M back if he returns to his old form by getting back with her.
Daaaaaaamn... This ***** Elin bout to be paying broads to throw the P at him and then flip for that $350M.
And that love entails intentionally hurting your significant other the worst way possible!this shows that guys can cheat and still love you. cheating for us isn't about love, its just sex.
The Asians can claim him if they want to. Dude is a sucker.
