Tiger Woods posted a brief statement on his foundation's web site as well today.
In its entirety: "Since my Dad and I created the Foundation, this work has been extremely important to me. I started the organization because I sincerely believe in giving back. There are millions of young people who have truly changed their lives through the Foundation's programs, and millions more still counting on us for help. I am committed to them and to the Foundation's excellent work, and I know my staff will continue these efforts during my absence." - Tiger Woods
