Former tennis star Boris Becker has said he understands what Tiger Woods must be going through, after the exposure of the golfer's sexcapades.

Becker has been through similar situation himself, as he infamously fathered a love child with a Russian woman.

The affair had resulted in his divorce with wife Barbara Feltus.

"I know what it's like to be humiliated as a love cheat," the Daily Star quoted him as saying.

Becker had got physically intimate with Angela Ermakowa at a London restaurant.

He had said back then: "It wasn't even an affair. It was an act that lasted five seconds."

Citing his own example, he added that it would be "damned hard" for Woods, who had affairs with several women, to save his marriage with Elin Nordegren.
