Here is the full blog post, which is available on his website as well. "I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children.

American Smackdown at Presidents Cup

Posted by JP On October 11th, 2009

On the final day of the 2009 Presidents Cup, the American team's performance was nothing short of dominant. In the end, the U.S. won with 19.5 to the international team's 14.5 points. Critical wins from Stewart Cink (who defeated young gun Adam Scott) and Tiger Woods (who defeated his PGA Championship rival, Y.E. Yang) put the U.S. back on top of the world.

Travel: Kapalua Resort, HI

Posted by JP On September 1st, 2009

Few courses let you live the PGA Tour experience quite like the Plantation course at the Kapalua Resort in Hawaii. Perhaps you don't get to sample the heartbreak of defeat or the pressure of crowds watching your every shot, but you will get to hack on a gorgeous layout designed to provide many scenic vistas (as well as the island's best golf). Kapalua Resort is located on the Hawaiian island of Maui, and it provides a vacation experience that very well may lead the pack among many of the nation's most popular resorts...

With one day left, the International team is watching their chances at the Presidents Cup slip away. By the end of play on Saturday, the United States team led by an impressive three points.

Though the team, as a whole, has put on a strong performance, the American side has clearly been led by a surprisingly strong team of Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker. Woods and Stricker are 4-0 thus far as a team, an unmatched feat over the past 30 years of Presidents Cup matches.

Though America has struggled over the past two decades to maintain its dominance in international competition, it appears that the U.S. will seal the deal tomorrow.

Sunday will consist of singles matches starting at 12:35 p.m. EST. The pairings are available here.
