Obama backs beleaguered Woods to 'get his life back on track'

Melbourne, January 14 (ANI): US President Barack Obama has revealed that he believes ace golfer Tiger Woods can "absolutely" be rehabilitated.

The president said he strongly believed "that anybody can look within themselves, find their flaws and fix them".

"I suspect that he will try to put his life back together again," the Daily Telegraph quoted him as saying in an interview with People magazine.

Woods announced he was taking an indefinite break from professional golf after admitting infidelity following the scandal that linked him to as many as 18 mistresses.

The World No. 1 was reported to have checked into an up-market American clinic that specialises in rehabilitation for sexual addiction. (ANI)
