Elin Nordegren, the wife of golfer Tiger Woods, was photographed in Chamonix, France today where she is reportedly staying at a secret location. A ski resort in the Alps seems a fitting background for the former Swedish model as she braces herself against the blizzard of media attention after details of her husband’s many infidelities surfaced at the end of 2009.

There has been a bit of debate as to whether this is Elin or her twin sister Josefin, but both People and The Sun are saying it is indeed Elin. People’s sources say both Nordegren sisters and some friends have been “skiing in Les Houches, an exclusive ski area adjacent to the Chamonix valley under the watchful paid eye of a private five-man French security force.”

From The Sun:

Her twin sister Josefin and five trusted pals are at her side and the whole party is shielded by a hired French security team.

Talented skier Elin arrived in Chamonix last Sunday and has spent much of her time in the chalet at Les Houches, 15 minutes from the main resort.

A family friend told The Sun: “Elin wanted to take her family and close friends away from the minefield Tiger has created by his behaviour.

Here are some more photos of Elin as well as some “general views of the villa where she spent the holiday” according to Flynet:
