Tiger Woods boarded a plane to rehab this weekend with his wife at his side, The Sun of England reported Monday.

Elin Nordegren, 30, softened her attitude toward the golfing superstar following his groveling public apology on Friday.

Woods' statement in Florida, in which he admitted, "I was unfaithful, I had affairs, I cheated,” was on Nordegren's orders as part of his rehabilitation, and to regain her trust.

Later Woods, 34, and Nordegren played tennis together in Orlando and spoke frankly of his flings.

On Saturday they departed for the airport in different cars. But they were seen boarding a private jet together, shrouded by heavy security, as he flew for more therapy.

It was the first time the couple communicated freely since Woods was exposed in November.

"Friday's show was totally for Elin. And it kind of worked," a friend of Nordegren's said.

"She feels sorry for him and doesn't want to make him do this alone. But getting back together is another issue. He's still got so far to go."
