Tiger Woods' sexcapades could be coming soon to the small screen. Sort of.

Spike TV has given the go-ahead to Back Nine, a comedy about a washed-up U.S. Open champion (played by former Dukes of Hazzard star John Schneider) working on a PGA comeback.

Sure having Bo Duke aboard is boffo (The Dukes of the Water Hazard, anyone?) but here's the part that makes this worthy of our attention: the linkster happens to have a sex-addicted caddy sidekick named—you guessed it—Tiger.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the timing is pure luck. The show has reportedly been in the works, complete with the Tiger character, long before Woods' Thanksgiving Day debacle and subsequent parade of mistresses.

Speaking of, Woods is expected to finally address his past indiscretions at a no-questions allowed "public meeting" Friday morning. We'll bring you that show live.
