Tiger: I Need a 'Kobe Special'
by TMZ Staff

Tiger Woods had a "Kobe Special" on his brain hours after what looks like a domestic dispute with his wife, Elin Nordegren -- this according to someone who spoke with Tiger on Friday.

During the phone conversation on Friday, Tiger told his friend, "I have to run to Zales to get a 'Kobe Special.'" The person on the other end of the phone asked Tiger what a "Kobe Special" was. The reply -- "A house on a finger."

During the conversation, Tiger said his wife had "gone ghetto" on him.

As we first reported, Tiger told the friend his wife had scratched his face up during an argument over a report that the golf great had cheated on her. The "other woman" named in the story -- Rachel Uchitel -- calls the report "bulls**t."

Of course, the Kobe reference is the now-famous house/ring he gave his wife Vanessa after the whole Colorado thing. We're assuming Tiger was joking, though he can certainly afford it.

That's funny. I always thought a 'Kobe Special' was a white girl bent over a chair. BOOM! But let's focus on the son of Earl who seems to have landed himself in some hot water with the Mrs. I'm a little surprised that Mrs. Woods was this shocked and upset at her husband's infidelity. Men are dogs so this was bound to happen. I'm not saying all men cheat but most men don't have models following us to Australia trying to bang us (or hotel concierges offering to give us a whirl for that matter).

So here's betting Tiger ditches the psycho Swede with the nails and the 9-iron. His fire hydrant will thank him.
