Tiger Woods is undoubtedly one of the greatest sports stars of all time, admired for his remarkable talent, dedication to golf, and philanthropic efforts.

His impact extends beyond the golf course through initiatives like The Tiger Woods Foundation, which focuses on providing educational opportunities and empowering underprivileged minority students worldwide.

However, Woods’ journey has not been without controversy, notably the highly publicized infidelity scandal that unfolded in 2009.

This scandal tarnished his image and led to many questioning how someone with such success and a seemingly perfect life could go astray.

Woods’ relationship with Elin Nordegren, a Swedish nanny introduced to him by fellow golfer Jesper Parnevik, initially appeared idyllic. They fell in love, got engaged, and eventually married in an ultra-private ceremony in Barbados in 2004, with celebrities like Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley in attendance. The couple had two children together, Sam Alexis and Charlie Axel.

However, their marriage faced severe strain in 2009 when news of Woods’ extramarital affairs surfaced. The couple divorced in 2010, with Nordegren reportedly receiving a $100 million settlement. She purchased a luxury home in Florida, where she and her children have lived since.
