Tiger Woods launches Twitter page

Tiger Woods is on Twitter.

In his first tweet Wednesday, the world’s former No. 1 golfer said, “What’s up everyone. Finally decided to try out twitter!

In a second tweet, TigerWoods said, “Yep, it’s me. I think I like this twitter thing. You guys are awesome. Thanks for all the love.”

Woods’ public image has taken a beating since last November, when a car accident outside his Florida home triggered reports of numerous extramarital affairs. Woods and ex-wife Elin Nordegren finalized their divorce in August.

Woods has also struggled on the golf course in 2010, failing to win a tournament for the first time in his professional career. He lost the world No. 1 ranking to Lee Westwood on Oct. 31.
