TIGER WOODS’ SWEDISH MODEL WIFE SUCCESSFULLY SUES IRISH MAGAZINE OVER FAKE PORNO SHOTS
Golfer Tiger Woods wife was awarded GBP180,000 in damages against Irish magazine the Dubliner, which published fake porn photos of her during the Ryder Cup last year.
The Dubliner magazine has also agreed to pay some of Elin Nordegren Woods legal costs after running a picture of a semi-naked woman alongside a caption referring to the Swedish model.
The explicit photographs and article, titled ‘Ryder Filth for Dublin’, featured in an edition of the Dubliner magazine published just days before the opening of the US Ryder Cup match against Europe in September last year.
Dubliner's publisher, Trevor White, admitted the story was cheap, tasteless, and deliberately offensive and completely untrue.
The Dubliner's publishers, Dubliner Media Ltd, earlier issued a full apology, insisting the article was intended to be satirical.
