Tiger Woods is receiving treatment at a sex rehabilitation clinic in Mississippi, Benoit Denizet-Lewis, author of a book titled "America Anonymous: Eight Addicts in Search of a Life" and himself a recovering sex addict, wrote on his personal blog Monday, citing an unnamed source.
Denizet-Lewis says he spent some time at Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services in Hattiesburg a few years ago while writing his book and that is where he says Woods is receiving treatment.
Last week, Radar Online and Jackson, Miss., television stations WJTV and WLBT reported through sources that Woods was at the Hattiesburg clinic.
Officials at the clinic have not confirmed that Woods is there, and ESPN independently has not been able to confirm that Woods is at the clinic.
Denizet-Lewis, who has written for the New York Times Magazine and other publications, writes that he spent some time at the clinic a few years ago while working on his book and writes that the programs at the clinic include group therapy sessions and family and couple's therapy, so if Woods "and his wife, Elin, are serious about repairing the marriage, she will be spending some time in treatment with Tiger."

Tiger Woods at sex addiction rehab clinic: reports

(AFP) – 3 hours ago 9 PM Est January 19, 2010

JACKSON, Mississippi — Tiger Woods is receiving treatment for sexual addiction at a sex rehabilitation clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi according to two television stations and an author on the topic.

Television stations WJTV and WLBT reported, citing unnamed sources, that Woods was at the Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services center, where security is tight and dark tarps have been placed upon wire fences.

Benoit Denizet-Lewis, who wrote a book on sex addiction, wrote in a blog entry that Woods was receiving treatment at the sex-rehab facility, where he spent time while working on the book regarding sexually compulsive behavoir.

Clinic officials have refused to confirm Woods is there to the television stations. ESPN also reported officials would not confirm Woods is a patient.

Woods has admitted infidelity to wife Elin and more than a dozen women have claimed to have had affairs with the world's top golfer, a scandal touched off when Woods drove his vehicle into a hydrant and a tree nearly two months ago.

Woods, who became a punch line for comedians in December, has said he is taking an indefinite leave from golf to sort out his personal life, giving no hint as to when he might return.

The US PGA Tour's third event of 2010 starts Wednesday.

wish I learned of this place 10 years ago.

[The General]

Is it official (confirmed) that Mr. Woods will not remain married to his wife?

[tltaylor89]

Good for him even though he can still watch porn from his Iphone

[mr. leisure]

I had a feeling this was going to happen

[TheLock]

Tiger needed to check into the "Don't get married when you're young and rich and you can nail hot trim all day and all night" clinic.

This is just damage control on the part of his handlers. He's not addicted to sex, he just likes to bang a lot and he got caught.

I don't believe it is. She originally said she would file for divorce but I read that she is now reconsidering. Keep in mind they got married when he was already well into the prime of his career, so I bet he has one baller prenup.

[teecee]

What happened to privacy in this world? I do not need to know these things, but the media just cannot help themselves. People really need to worry more about their own lives.

I think she is reconsidering filing because they have kids involved. No kids involved she would have been gone. He better have a prenup with all that money he had before they got married.

[odusmykal]

Very true.. I could care less where he spends his days.. Have been sick of hearing his name everyday since December 1st.. The first few after Thankgiving and i was ready for it to stop.. He cheated on his wife.. Big deal.. Why do people still care so much?.

[Lost Angel]

Keep in mind they got married when he was already well into the prime of his career, so I bet he has one baller prenup.

I have trouble imagining a prenup that includes wording to the effect of "whatever the reason for the dissolution of the marriage, however egregious my "sins", you by signing this document, get only what I feel like giving to you."

Maybe they exist, but even if they do though, a woman signs such a thing?!!?

Overall teecee brings the important point here. There is no longer such a thing as "privacy" and this is bad.

[SBR_John]

WTF do they do in a sex clinic show you picks of obesely hairy Eskimo women or what? He is getting some bad advice it looks like. You work with a therapist if you have a behavior that needs improvement not check into the Betty Ford clinic for guys who like women.

[1st and Ten]

Nothing wrong with liking women but you must admit John he is a tad bit obsessive.

[THEGREAT30]

Come on Tiger don't be forced into this type of foolishness if you like to bang you like to bang

[PDW]

[xxred_hottxx]

I think that this was smart of Tiger Woods because he has a wife and family to take care of and his addiction must be controlled. He should get help from Dr. Ray on his sex rehab show that would be entertaining!!!

[konck]

Man great move by Tiger ....I mean where else would more hard up Ho's be hanging out....he will collect all the numbers
He will be hearing...
Hi Im Amy I like it in every hole possible all day long ........

[ttwarrior1]

[revnecro1273]

[jon13009]

Not a problem..unless his wife forced him to go there.......

ok, you have a gambling addiction, they tell you to NEVER MAKE A WAGER

you have a drug addiction, tell you never to take drugs

[SBR_John]

Hey, there are some of the prettiest girls on the planet on that I-20 stretch from Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi!

[JoshW]

Generally rehab for celebrities is just a way for them to put distance between themselves and what they did so they can move on. But with Tiger, I think he actually needs it.

[TheLock]

why is this in the tennis section?

Because it's Game. Set. Match. for Tigers career if his handlers don't do some serious damage control.
