Haney confirms Tiger's sex addict treatment, saw no doping


Tiger Woods underwent sex addiction treatment during his five-month absence from golf, his former swing coach Hank Haney said in excerpts of a television interview released Saturday.

Haney also told The Golf Channel that he saw no hint of world number one Woods taking any sort of performance-enhancing drugs, including during sessions with controversial Canadian doctor Anthony Galea.

The revelations were shown in video clips posted on The Golf Channel website promoting a full interview with Haney to be aired Sunday night on the network.

Woods, whose admission of multiple mistresses shattered his world on and off the course, had never said he was receiving his therapy for sex addiction, although he had been photographed at a Mississippi clinic known for such treatment.

Asked why Woods spent six weeks in a treatment facility, Haney replied, "The only thing that I knew about was his issue with the sex addiction." (AFP)
