 As RadarOnline.com reported January 15, Tiger is at Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. 
 
 He is in a six-week program at the clinic, which is directed by Dr. Patrick Carnes, who has pioneered treatment for sexually compulsive behavior.

 Still, he’s already planning his comeback and is aiming to be back on the PGA tour by Spring. 
 
 The Masters begins April 5 but it is not yet known if Tiger will attempt to be ready for that high-profile tournament, which he has won four times. 
 
 Tiger is not publicly revealing his plan to return to golf this Spring but the source told RadarOnline.com that the golfing great believes going through rehab will help him convince everyone – including corporate sponsors – that he has changed. 
 
 News organizations scoured Hattiesburg the past few days looking for Tiger Sightings but his rehab is a closed facility. Two local media outlets also reported that Tiger was receiving treatment in town.

 Tiger’s wife Elin has not been wearing her wedding ring but also has not filed for divorce. 
 
 He has been romantically linked to at least 14 women during his marriage. His most recent affair was with Rachel Uchitel and was uncovered by the National Enquirer. Shortly after that story was reported Tiger drove into a fire hydrant and tree in the early morning hours after Thanksgiving and has not been seen since in public.

 Tiger Woods is back at home after a week of family counseling in Arizona and is trying to get into a routine that includes golf and fitness, a person with knowledge of his schedule said Tuesday. 
 
 Woods returned to his home near Orlando on Saturday and has been hitting balls on the range at Isleworth, not far from where he ran his SUV into a tree in a middle-of-the-night accident on Nov. 27 that set off revelations of his extramarital affairs. 
 
 The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because only Woods is authorized to release information about his schedule, said there is still no timetable for golf's No. 1 player to return to competition. 
 
 Woods was photographed hitting golf balls at Isleworth on Feb. 18, the day before he ended nearly three months of silence by speaking to a small group of associates in a 13 1/2-minute statement that was televised around the world. Those photos of Woods were arranged to counter the paparazzi trying to follow his every move since Thanksgiving. 
 
 Woods has not practiced in earnest since winning the Australian Masters in Melbourne on Nov. 15 for his 82nd victory worldwide. 
 
 News of him getting back into a routine is sure to begin speculation when he might return to the PGA Tour. Woods announced on Dec. 4 that he was taking an "indefinite break" to try to salvage his marriage. 
 
 "I do plan to return to golf one day, I just don't know when that day will be," Woods said Feb. 19 in his statement at Sawgrass. "I don't rule out that it will be this year." 
 
 Woods said he was leaving the next day for more therapy, without saying what kind. The person who spoke to The Associated Press said he went to Arizona for a week of family and marriage counseling with his wife, Elin. 
 
 Woods said at Sawgrass of his infidelity, "As Elin pointed out to me, my real apology to her will not come in the form of words; it will come from my behavior over time. We have a lot to discuss; however, what we say to each other will remain between the two of us." 
 
 Woods is not likely to play next week in the World Golf Championship at Doral, where he has won three times. 
 
 His next possibility on the PGA Tour is the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, where he is the defending champion and a six-time winner. The Masters, which Woods has played every year since 1995, would follow. Augusta National officials have not indicated whether they expect Woods to compete. 
 
 "When he does come back, I hope it's in the Masters, and I hope he's in great form," Masters champion Angel Cabrera said Tuesday on a conference call. 
 
 The fallout from Woods' sex scandal has been immense. He already has had three sponsors drop him _ Accenture, AT&T and, most recently, Gatorade _ while other companies like Gillette have suspended promotions of Woods while he takes his break from golf. 
 
 When he does return, he will have a different logo on his golf bag, replacing AT&T, if he can find a deal.
– Get ready for the Tiger Woods comeback, coming to a golf course near you this spring. A source tells Radar that’s when Woods plans to return to the PGA tour, when his sex rehab program is over—but it remains to be seen whether he’ll be ready for the Masters, which begins April 5. "Tiger is totally devastated," the source says. "He wants to show everyone that he intends to change." He’s spending six weeks in a private room at a rehab center in Mississippi—where wife Elin Nordegren has (shocker!) not visited him, Radar adds.
