After all the jokes that Tiger Woods endured, this just feels a little sad: He and Elin Nordegren officially divorced on Monday. “We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future," they said in a statement. "While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us." They also requested privacy for their children, saying, “The weeks and months ahead will not be easy for them as we adjust to a new family situation, which is why our privacy must be a principal concern." The nature of their settlement is not disclosed, but reports have said that Elin will be receiving anywhere from $100 million to $500 million.
