Others expressed surprise at the tone of Tiger\u2019s post, with one suggesting it seemed uncharacteristic of him and another even wondering if his account had been hacked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, a fan expressed support for Tiger\u2019s new relationship and called him the \u201cGOAT,\u201d which stands for the \u201cgreatest of all time.\u201d Adding to the positivity, Ivanka Trump, Vanessa\u2019s former sister-in-law, also left a supportive comment, \u201cSo happy for you both! \"\ud83e\udd70\"\"\ud83e\udd70\"\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiger confirming his romance with Vanessa comes after reports that U.S. President Donald Trump had commented on their relationship.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An insider revealed that Donald is aware of the rumored romance and fully approves. \u201cTrump knows about him dating Vanessa and is said to approve,\u201d the source stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiger has also expressed appreciation for Donald\u2019s contributions to golf. \u201cTiger speaks privately about liking Trump and what he\u2019s done to promote golf,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The golf icon recently attended a Black History Month event at the White House, where he was seen wearing the Presidential Medal of Freedom he received from Donald. Additionally, sources claim Donald has extended an invitation for Tiger to join him and Kai for a round of golf at his Florida club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiger and Vanessa began making headlines<\/strong> for their reportedly new romance recently. According to the Daily Mail on March 13, the 49-year-old golfer and Vanessa, 47, have been quietly dating since late last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both live just 20 minutes apart in Palm Beach, Florida. Their children \u2014 Tiger\u2019s, Charlie and Sam Woods, and Vanessa\u2019s eldest daughter, Kai Trump \u2014 attend The Benjamin School, a private institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, witnesses spotted them together at a golf tournament, fueling speculation. A source told Daily Mail, \u201cTiger and Vanessa have been seeing each other since just before Thanksgiving. She comes to his place on Jupiter Island. They\u2019re not living together. She comes over maybe a few nights a week.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The source added that they enjoy each other\u2019s company, often sharing dinners and conversation. For now, they are keeping things private and have chosen to stay out of the public eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the attention surrounding their romance, Vanessa\u2019s ex-husband isn\u2019t bothered. A source close to the Trump family told People that Donald Jr. is \u201ccool\u201d with the pair dating. He and Vanessa were married for 12 years before divorcing in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, other Trump family members and the former couple\u2019s five children reportedly know about Vanessa and Tiger\u2019s relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York Post reported that Tiger and Vanessa\u2019s relationship began as a friendship. \u201cBut it\u2019s not too serious, it\u2019s heading in that direction, though,\u201d a source mentioned. While they are taking things slowly, a source believes it could become \u201csomething really serious and permanent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey have a lot in common. They\u2019ve both gotten used to public scrutiny. They both know how to keep their private life private. They\u2019re both parents,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Tiger admires most about Vanessa is that she isn\u2019t drawn to his popularity. \u201cFame doesn\u2019t interest her; that\u2019s what he likes best about her,\u201d the source explained, adding that she would date him even if he weren\u2019t famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before reports of their romance resurfaced, Vanessa was seen in the background of a photo taken on February 16, at Torrey Pines Golf Course in La Jolla, California. The image showed Tiger alongside Kai, during the final round of The Genesis Invitational, further fueling speculation about their growing connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanessa\u2019s appearance at the event fueled dating rumors and sparked online discussions about her resemblance to Tiger\u2019s past partners. One commented, \u201cLooks like his ex,\u201d<\/em> while other users pointed out that he clearly has a type, \u201cYou can tell he has a type. All of his girlfriends look alike.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One observer noted Tiger\u2019s preference for blondes. Someone joked that she seemed older and not as blonde as his usual type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While some focused on her appearance, others reacted to the relationship itself. Another person found the situation unexpected and mentioned it wasn\u2019t on their bingo card. A skeptic predicted it wouldn\u2019t last, comparing Tiger\u2019s dating history to going through water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not everyone was critical, though. A supporter expressed happiness for the couple and wished them well. Another echoed the same sentiment, \u201cGood for them. Wish them much happiness.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiger\u2019s reported romance with Vanessa surfaced after he revealed a recent health setback<\/strong>, adding to public interest in his personal life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 11, Tiger announced on X that he ruptured his left Achilles tendon while training, requiring surgery in Florida. Dr. Charlton Stucken performed a minimally invasive procedure at the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, assuring that the operation was successful and that Tiger is expected to make a full recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite his perseverance, Tiger\u2019s physical struggles were evident even before his two surgeries. In July 2024, he reflected on his performance in an interview with The Guardian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI loved it, I\u2019ve always loved playing major championships. I just wish I was sharper physically,\u201d he admitted. \u201cObviously it tests you mentally, physically and emotionally, and I just wasn\u2019t as sharp as I needed to be. I was hoping to find it somehow, but I just never did.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His struggles weren\u2019t just physical \u2014 he was also coping with personal loss. Just a month before his left Achilles tendon injury, he withdrew from a tournament at Torrey Pines following the passing of his mother, Kultida Woods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI planned to tee it up this week, but I\u2019m just not ready. I did my best to prepare, knowing it\u2019s what my Mom would have wanted, but I\u2019m still processing her loss,\u201d Tiger said in a statement on February 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He thanked everyone for their support and kindness since his mother\u2019s passing. Tiger announced on X that Kultida had passed away on February 4.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kutilda\u2019s influence extended beyond the sidelines, shaping even the smallest details of Tiger\u2019s game \u2014 including a bold tradition that would come to define him: his red shirt on Sundays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy mom thought, that being born a Capricorn, that red was my power color,\u201d Tiger once said. \u201cAnd so, in some of the junior golf events in So Cal, I would wear red. And I won.\u201d Wanting to test her belief, he deliberately switched to blue for other tournaments \u2014 only to be proven wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t win,\u201d Tiger admitted. \u201cAnd so I then switched to red, and I had a lot more success wearing red.\u201d Realizing the pattern, he eventually made a deal with his mother \u2014 he would reserve red for the final round of big events instead of wearing it every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kultida accepted the compromise. \u201cShe said, \u2018Fine. Just wear it the last day,’\u201d Tiger shared. From then on, his mom\u2019s belief became a lasting tradition, one he carried into the biggest moments of his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Tiger mourns this profound loss, he carries forward the lessons and strength his mother instilled in him \u2014 values that helped shape him into the champion the world knows today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
