Tiger Woods may have given up trying to save his marriage to Swedish beauty Elin Nordegren, after he was spotted in Florida allegedly in the company of New York party girl Rachel Uchitel.

Tiger Woods’ wife Elin Nordegren may not have been at the posh French ski resort over the holiday after all. She may have been in Florida with her two children. But the proof is as sketchy as ever.
