Tiger and Buick split...

Although not as firey as the spat between Lohan and her boytoy Sam, Buick and Tiger have decided to go their separate ways.

A relationship that has weathered it's fair share of problems, the news took everyone by surprise.

It was an amicable split, both sides have said.

"While it hurts, you know that there is something else out there and that everything happens for a reason," Tiger said as he worked to keep his composure. "It was a relationship with it's ups and downs, but we had been together for such a long time. So many of my friends could never understand how I could be with Buick...how I could stick myself out there. It felt as though I was always having to sell Buick to people, always having to justify why Buick was next to me. To say that it was hard to make people understand our relationship would be an understatement."

Buick has been reluctant to speak out about the split, but the effects have been clearly evident to even the most casual purveyor of world news. "Buick has had a relationship with [Tiger] for such a long time, sometimes it is hard for Buick to know where this whole crazy ride started," spokesperson for Buick recounted. "It is true that many have pointed the finger at Buick and always thought that their relationship was one that was all about the money. Nothing could be further from the truth."

Although Buick's people appear to be trying to say all the right things, it is clear that money had a lot to do with the relationship troubles. "We are all thinking that Buick just needs a little time to step back from the situation and figure out what the next move is. These kinds of things are never easy, for anyone."
