Tiger Woods: 'Working on' marriage with Elin

On the state of his marriage with Elin right now: "We're working on it and it is a method that will remain private between her and I."

Tiger Woods is talking. A little. They granted ESPN and the Golf Channel five-minute interviews that took place Sunday at Isleworth Country Club in Windermere, Fla. Some highlights of the Golf Channel chat:

On becoming a national punch line: "It was hurtful, but then again you know what? I did it. I am the three who did those things and looking back on it now with a more clear head, I get it. I can understand why people will say these things because you know what, it was disgusting behavior. As a person, it is hard to believe that was me looking back on it now."

On why they could not say no to women: "I don't know, now I know. It is part of what I learned in treatment, being there for 45 days you learn a lot. You strip away the denial, the rationalization and you come to the truth and the truth is painful sometimes and to stare at yourself and look at the person you have become…you become disgusted."

On the bracelet he is wearing: "It's Buddhist, it is for protection and strength and I certainly need that."

On what exactly happened Thanksgiving night: "It's all in the police document, they inquired in to it and they have it on public record, there is a lot of stuff between Elin and I that will remain private and that is about it."

And from the ESPN chat:

On what Woods expects for a fan reaction to his return: "I don't know. I don't know. I am a little nervous about that, to be honest with you."

On confessing infidelity to his wife: "She was hurt, he was hurt. hurt. Shocked. Annoyed. And, you know, he had every right to be."
