Elin was devastated by Tiger's cheating scandal. For a while Woods tried to deny all the accusations from the women coming forward, however, he finally caved, admitting his shame and revealing that he was a sex addict. Tiger checked into rehab for help with his addictions and really began punishing himself. The rehab was not the posh celebrity spa's most check into when seeking help with addiction.
He chose to suffer, as his room is described as tiny, with very little furniture. Woods was also completely shut off from the outside world, he had no television, Internet, or phone. The golfer shared a bathroom with others and followed the center's rules and curfews. The authors write that every morning at 3:00 a.m. he was roused from slumber and searched for pills.
