Family comes first: Woods in interview before beans spilled

Tiger Woods said family always comes before golf in what is being touted as his last interview before the sex scandal broke over his infidelity to wife Elin.

Tiger Woods said family always comes before golf in what is being touted as his last interview before the sex scandal broke over his infidelity to wife Elin.

New Zealand sports commentator Murray Deaker interviewed the golf superstar at the Australian Masters last month in what the broadcaster claims was his last interview before reports Woods cheated with 10 women.

"Family first and golf second. Always be like that?" Deaker asked Woods. "Always," the golfer replied in a promotional clip for the interview.

The eight-minute interview was to be screened by New Zealand pay television network Sky TV on Christmas Day but because of the frenzy of interest in the scandal, it has been moved forward to Tuesday.

Woods announced on Friday he was taking a hiatus from professional golf and admitted he had cheated on his wife after reports that 10 women had claimed to have had sexual relationships with the 14-time major champion.
