The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that the National Enquirer kept quiet about a Woods affair in 2007 in exchange for rare access for a cover story to sister publication Men's Fitness.

Under terms of the deal, the Enquirer would not publish photographs and a story on Woods having an extra-marital affair, while the golfer agreed to a cover and photo spread in Men's Fitness, the Journal reported, citing unnamed sources.

An Enquirer report on Woods's alleged affair with showclub hostess Rachel Uchitel purportedly caused the domestic row that led to his crash.

Woods is doing all he can to save his marriage, including making calls behind the scenes to women with whom he had affairs about possible deals, celebrity website TMZ said.

Concerns were also raised about Canadian doctor Anthony Galea, who faces charges involving a banned drug and links to performance-enhancing substances, having helped Woods recover from a June 2008 knee surgery.

Thus far, there is no evidence of any doping violation by Woods or that Galea provided him any banned substances.
