Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren officially divorced this week, just nine months after she discovered proof he was cheating on her. Sources told TMZ.com that Nordegren will receive $100 million from the cheating golfer, and the couple will split custody of their two children. In an interview with People magazine, Nordegren said she tried to put the marriage back together, but could not trust Woods again after learning he’d had dozens of affairs. “It’s hard to think you have this life, and then all of a sudden—was it a lie?‘‘ she said. “I’ve been through hell.’’
