Woods’ life fell apart in 2009 when he was exposed as a cheater. This eventually led to Woods splitting up with his then-wife, Elin Nordegren. The cheating scandal and golfer’s divorce was one of the most media-covered infamous events in sports.

Tiger Woods’ cheating scandal

Woods’ personal life has mostly been under the radar. The golfer likes to lead a silent life. Ironically, some parts of it were covered more than most sporting events in the world. The ace golfer has gone through rough patches in his life, including infidelity.

It is pertinent to note that Tiger Woods’ infidelity stories came to light after reports of his affair with a nightclub manager emerged. Following this, multiple women came forward claiming to be in a relationship with the golfer. He was caught in swirling controversies and this also affected his career. Woods’ form plummeted dramatically after his divorce and he struggled to get back on top.

Tiger Woods has openly addressed the scandal on several occasions. Once, while speaking about it, Woods said that he is “deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people.” Woods later revealed that Elin Nordegren has remained a good friend to him despite the tough divorce. Woods now looks after their kids, Sam and Charlie.
