Poor Tiger Woods has had to come clean on his extra martial affairs with dozens of women. He really was quite the lad Tiger, and is now on his knees begging forgiveness as his wife Elin Nordegren wants a divorce, sole custody and half his estimated £370 million ($671 million) fortune, according to a newspaper report. Sole Custody what gives her the right to declare that. She was probably a nightmare to live with herself, otherwise why was he cheating...?

Tiger has been reported visiting a Sex Addict clinic seeking professional help to stave off the divorce. We think he should and get on with his life and find a new wife.... The horse has bolted Tiger the truth is out there, and there is no going back. If she wants a divorce give it to her, but not sole custody she has no right of that demand. Unfortunately she will never trust you again Tiger...or hasn't anybody told him that before he considered her recomendation of professional help. Our question is what is her story ? what is she really like to live with?? No one is innocent here...and there are three sides to every story - his, hers, and the truth of the matter...

GOT 'EM: England cricket captain Andrew Strauss basks in the glory of winning the Ashes against Australia.

Ouch! Australia have surrendered the Ashes and their official status as the top test cricket team in the world in the wake of England's 197-run victory at The Oval on Sunday.

The victory handed Andrew Strauss' men a 2-1 series triumph in only England's second Ashes series win since 1986-87 in front of a delirious home crowd in south London.

The result means Ricky Ponting has the unwanted tag of being the first Australian captain in 119 years to lose two Ashes series in England.

The defeat also means Australia slip from No1 in the world to No4 behind South Africa, Sri Lanka and India in a stunning double blow.

Ponting expected to face some tough questions over the coming days about the defeat, with the skipper scheduled to fly home for a break on Tuesday.

The NZ All Blacks retained the Bledisloe Cup and handed the wooden spoon in the Tri Nations to the Wallabies in Wellington on Sept 19. The 33-6 walloping of the Wallabies gave new coach Robbie Deans nothing to smile about. Questions are being asked if Deans has the ability to step up as an international coach after years of success as the NZ Crusaders Super 14 Teams coach. He now has the honor of a worse record thus far than Eddie Jones. Time will tell.

After pushing Serena Williams over her limit in the semi's Clijsters showed a new resolve to win the final in staright sets 7-5, 6-3. Serena Willaims reached a new low by abusing the lines women and was cleary outplayed by Clijsters in the semi's. Kim Cliijsters crushed Caroline Wozniacki to take out the US Open final and perhaps a new era in tennis begins again..

Munster reached their fourth Heineken Cup final after ending brave Saracens' European adventure courtesy of a pulsating 18-16 win at the Ricoh Arena.

The Irish giants will now return to Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium - scene of their 2006 title triumph against Biarritz - and an appointment with three-time European champions Toulouse on May 24.

This week Spain's Rafael Nadal won his fourth straight Monte Carlo Masters title. An incredible effort, especially when you take into account the fact that he has won the past three finals against his famous foe Roger Federer.

Nadal and Federer have now met 15 times, with Nadal holding a 9-6 win-loss advantage over the world No.1. Few can boast a positive record against Federer.

Looking at the numbers, Federer and Nadal have met 15 times, 11 of those matches (73%) have been finals. This is a high percentage, but when you take into account Nadal has been parked behind Federer in the No.2 spot for the past 144 weeks it makes sense.

Before this there was Agassi and Sampras - two Americans whose personalities couldn't have been more different. Agassi began his career in a blaze of media headlines and fluoro, while Sampras rarely courted controversy.

The Americans met 34 times with Sampras taking the honours 20 times. On 16 occasions the two met in a final - 47% of their matches.

The 1980s produced a few great rivalries, some of which stretched into the early part of the 1990s.

As her grandmother looked on, West Australian Casey Dellacqua upset former world number one Amelie Mauresmo to advance into the fourth round of the 2008 Australian Open.

South Africa for the second time take the Rugby World Cup in Paris defeating England 15-6 in a dour try less match. A controversial decision by TV Match Official Stuart Dickinson denied English winger Mark Cueto a dive over try in the corner in the second half claiming his boot just touched the line. If the try had been allowed it would have changed the tempo of the match and may have resulted in a different winner?.

Referees made more of an impact on this world cup than the IRB would admit with the NZ All Blacks sent packing by France in the quarter finals with a missed blatant forward pass resulting in a try for France and an absurd decision by Referee Wayne Barnes yellow carding Luke McAllister for a supposed obstruction. IRB Referee President NZ'der Paddy O'Brien's reaction to the bad refereeing claims was "grow up". O'Brien's reaction says it all, referees are untouchable and if they do come under scrutiny for bad decisions we are told to "grow up". Perhaps O'Brien is the one who needs to grow up and take accountably for the referees decisions which can change the result of these type match's. Rugby Union is being bogged down with technical phobia refereeing hindering the natural flow of the game as the players have got bigger, stronger and faster.

The whole IRB referee's association headed by O'Brien needs a big shake up for the future of Rugby Union to prosper and flow as it should. Perhaps the real problem is O'Brien at the helm of the IRB Referees, himself a former top referee who had his own moments during his career.
