March 22, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): Tiger Woods, who went into hiding after his car crashed near his Orlando home and sex scandals that followed, granted two television interviews on Sunday, one to ESPN and the other to the Golf Channel. The interview with ESPN reporter Tom Rinaldi is scheduled to air sometime after 7 PM EST on Sunday.

It took Woods nearly three months to say anything publicly, and another month to submit to questions with a 5-minute time limit to two broadcast outlets. This came five days after he released a statement saying he would make his return to competitive golf at the Masters, and 30 days after a worldwide audience watched him give a 13½-minute speech at PGA Tour headquarters, after which he took no questions.

For all the time that has passed since the accident that sent him underground — just more than 16 weeks, to be precise — there are plenty who want to see him struggle under the bright lights, with questions fired from all corners of the room. Sunday’s interviews, while admittedly a start, are but water torture, with information dripping out. Woods put no restrictions on the questions, but people obviously are looking for some juicy stuff.

Woods would not answer questions about the accident, saying that anything beyond the public record was private and between him and his wife. But when asked to describe the depth of his infidelity, Woods said, “Well, just one is enough. And obviously that wasn’t the case, and I’ve made my mistakes.” He strongly denied using performance enhancing drugs ever.
