HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Tiger Woods is the latest celebrity target of South Park co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
The golfer's admitted infidelity will be targeted when the show's 14th season premieres Wednesday. In an episode titled, "Sexual Healing, the nation's top scientists come together to put a stop to the recent phenomenon of rich, successful men who suddenly want to have sex with many, many women. After extensive testing, some of the fourth grade boys in South Park Elementary are diagnosed as sex addicts.
"It's such an important issue in America right now — the sex addiction outbreak," said Stone, whose Comedy Central program has also mocked the likes of Tom Cruise and Michael Jackson. "We're all really concerned about him and hope he gets better."
Woods, 34, has been under the microscope ever since he crashed his SUV outside his Florida home on Nov. 27. The accident came shortly after the National Enquirer published a story alleging that he was having an affair with Rachel Uchitel, a New York nightclub manager. After the first affair allegation, more than a dozen women stepped forward claiming to have engaged in sexual trysts with Woods, including former VH1 Tool Academy contestant Jaimee Grubbs and porn star Holly Sampson.
The PGA star, who reportedly underwent sex addiction treatment at a Mississippi clinic, made his first public comments last month when he apologized for his "irresponsible and selfish behavior."
"I was unfaithful. I had affairs. I cheated. What I did is not acceptable – and I am the only person to blame," he said. "I stopped living by the core values that I was taught to believe in. I knew my actions were wrong, but I convinced myself that normal rules didn't apply. Instead, I thought only about myself. I ran straight through the boundaries a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me."
