Woods and Nordegren Closer to Reaching a Divorce Settlement

Top-ranked golfer Tiger Woods and his estranged wife Elin Nordegren are getting closer to finalizing their divorce. Both parties have agreed to the major terms of their divorce, and the proceedings have been kept very quiet. It has been reported, however, that Woods will have to pay out over $750 million to Nordegren when all is said and done.

There was suspicion that Woods had fathered a child with porn star Devon James after a fling the two had in 2001 according to James, but those rumors have now been quelled. The paternity of James' son was determined with 99.9% accuracy to be a man named Pele Watkins. Watkins' paternity of the porn star's son was determined through DNA testing back in 2002, and yet James, real name Melinda Brinling, began legal proceedings last month to determine if Woods was the same child's father.
