Tiger Woods Press Conference: Video and First Impressions
In what probably is the most anticipated press conference in history, Tiger Woods finally emerged from hiding to deliver his statement to the world. 
And the world was waiting.
First impressions were that he seemed very sincere, contrite and genuine in his apology. There were also times where he seemed angry-especially at the accusations of him using PED's and even more so when addressing the treatment of his family by the paparazzi.
Since the accident, tabloid sites have hounded his mother and Elin but most disturbingly, following his children to and from school and even reporting the name and location of the school.
Some of his statements made were
-- "I thought I could get away with anything I wanted to ... I thought I was entitled ... I don't get to play by different rules."
-- "As Elin pointed out to me, my real apology to her will not come in the form of words; it will come from my behavior over time."
-- "I ask you to find room in your heart to one day believe in me again."
-- "I do plan to return to golf one day, but I don't know when that will be."
-- "Starting tomorrow, I will leave for more treatment and more therapy."
-- "Parents used to point to me as a role model for their kids. I owe all those families a special apology."
From reading the updates on Twitter and other sites, a lot of people seem to be bashing Tiger in a pathetic way criticizing anything he says and the order in which he says it.
Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
The most touching quote he made was "its up to me to start living a life of integrity, its not what you achieve in life that matters, its what you overcome".
After his closing, Tiger gave a long embrace to his mother that was in attendance (along with the PGA Commissioner) and walked out of the conference with a hand to his head as if a huge weight had been lifted off of his shoulder.
Well said Tiger and the Golf world will be happy to have you back.
