A dejected kindergarten teacher is demanding an immediate apology from controversial golfer Tiger Woods after charges of racial abuse during the star's school days.

Maureen Decker, 69, who was Woods kindergarten teacher at Cerritos Elementary School in the Anaheim area in Los Angeles in 1981 to 82, expressed disappointment for false accusations of physical and racial abuse and feels that the golfer owes her an apology. These so called accusations were evident in a book by Charles Barkley called 'Who's afraid of a Large Black Man?' wherein Tiger quoted that his teacher was totally irresponsive at the time where he was being harassed and racially mocked by a group of sixth graders.

Decker was stressed over the allegations and exerted desperate  efforts to get through to Tiger and his representatives for an explanation but her calls were never returned. Gloria Alfred, Decker's attorney and also representing two of Wood's alleged mistresses, stongly feels that the teacher has been slandered for unknown motives and that Tiger should do the right thing and apologize. And that includes withdrawing the demoralizing statement. Photo by: Fame Pictures
