“We probably thought he was a better guy than he is,” Parnevik told The Golf Channel.

“I would probably need to apologize to her and hope she uses a driver next time instead of a 3-iron,” Parnevik said, referring to various reports indicating that Nordegren smashed out Woods’ car windows with a golf wedge, adding that he hasn’t been in contact with Tiger since the incident occurred.

“It’s a private thing, of course,” he said. “But when you are the guy he is – the world’s best athlete – you should think more before you do stuff … and maybe not ‘Just do it,’ like Nike says.”

Three of Woods’ sponsors, Nike, Gatorade and EA Sports, have expressed support for Woods. Gillette added that it has no plans to change its marketing programs. AT&T has declined comment.

In a final report on the accident released on Wednesday, the Florida Highway Patrol said Woods caused $3,200 in property damage, wasn’t wearing a seat belt and was traveling 30 mph in a 25 mph zone.

The report says that Woods’ SUV rubbed up against bushes, crossed over a curb, onto a grass median and into a row of hedges before hitting a fire hydrant and then a tree. The damage to Tiger Woods’ Cadillac Escalade was estimated at $8,000.

Reached in Sweden on Wednesday, Woods’ father-in-law, Thomas Nordegren simply said: “I don’t want to comment on this whatsoever.”
