The image showed Tiger alongside Kai during the final round of The Genesis Invitational, further fueling speculation about his and Vanessa&#8217;s growing connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Vanessa&#8217;s appearance at the event not only fueled dating rumors but also sparked online discussions about her resemblance to Tiger&#8217;s past partners. One person commented, &#8220;Looks like his ex,&#8221; while other people pointed out that he clearly has a type, &#8220;You can tell he has a type. All of his girlfriends look alike.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">One observer noted Tiger&#8217;s preference for blondes, while someone else opined that Vanessa seemed older and not as blonde as his usual type.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">While some focused on her appearance, others reacted to Vanessa and Tiger&#8217;s relationship. One person found the situation unexpected and mentioned it wasn&#8217;t on their bingo card, while a skeptic predicted it wouldn&#8217;t last, comparing how fast Tiger goes from relationship to relationship with frequently drinking water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Not everyone was critical, though. A supporter expressed happiness for the couple and wished them well. Another echoed the same sentiment, &#8220;Good for them. Wish them much happiness.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DHJ8fZoxwbE\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

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 was expected to make a full recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Tiger also reassured fans that he had returned home and focused on &#8220;recovery and rehab,&#8221; thanking them for their support. His injury drew strong reactions from analysts and former players on X.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Former professional golfer and current analyst Arron Oberholser reacted, &#8220;Unreal. How much more can an athlete endure. [sic] Just brutal.&#8221; Golf journalist Dan Rapaport added, &#8220;Ruptured achilles [sic] is a nightmare. I&#8217;m sad.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Another ex-golfer, Nick Leach, shared his thoughts, &#8220;As much as I love Tiger and how he&#8217;s impacted the way I view golf. It&#8217;s time to call it a career.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">ESPN&#8217;s football analyst Booger McFarland commented, &#8220;It&#8217;s not our place to tell him what to do however I hope enough is enough Body has been thru a lot. Enjoy your kids. We will cherish all 82 of the wins and in a lot of eyes He is the greatest to ever touch a club [sic].&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Tiger&#8217;s injury followed his microdecompression surgery in September 2024 to relieve nerve impingement in his lower back. The procedure was performed by Dr. Sheeraz Qureshi at the Hospital for Special Surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">At the time, the golfer shared on X, &#8220;The surgery went smoothly, and I&#8217;m hopeful this will help alleviate the back spasms and pain I was experiencing throughout most of the 2024 season.&#8221; He was eager to start rehab and return to his normal activities, especially golf.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Despite his perseverance, Tiger&#8217;s physical struggles were evident even before his two surgeries. In July 2024, he reflected on his performance in an interview with The Guardian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;I loved it, I&#8217;ve always loved playing major championships. I just wish I was sharper physically. Obviously it tests you mentally, physically and emotionally, and I just wasn&#8217;t as sharp as I needed to be. I was hoping to find it somehow, but I just never did,&#8221; he admitted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">His struggles weren&#8217;t 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.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;I planned to tee it up this week, but I&#8217;m just not ready. I did my best to prepare, knowing it&#8217;s what my Mom would have wanted, but I&#8217;m still processing her loss,&#8221; Tiger said in a statement on February 10.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">He thanked everyone for their support and kindness since his mother&#8217;s passing. <b>Tiger announced his mother&#8217;s passing via a statement on X that he shared on February 4.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_120392\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-120392\" style=\"width: 992px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-120392\" src=\"https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5.webp\" alt=\"Tiger Woods and his mom Kultida Woods sharing a moment at TPC Sawgrass on February 19, 2010. | Source: Getty Images\" width=\"992\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5.webp 992w, https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5-300x222.webp 300w, https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5-768x567.webp 768w, https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5-150x111.webp 150w, https:\/\/lorevista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/a6ac114098bb5cda06838d73b3f14b9aedc2c2aa163d19d2be3bed0882c8d0a5-450x333.webp 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-120392\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tiger Woods and his mom Kultida Woods sharing a moment at TPC Sawgrass on February 19, 2010. | Source: Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable [&#8230;] She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible,&#8221; Tiger wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Kultida, who was of Thai origin, was a constant presence throughout her son&#8217;s legendary career.

Golfing legend Fred Couples paid tribute to Kultida on X, remembering her as a vibrant presence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Kutilda&#8217;s influence extended beyond the sidelines, shaping even the smallest details of Tiger&#8217;s game \u2014 including a bold tradition that would come to define him: his red shirt on Sundays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;My mom thought, that being born a Capricorn, that red was my power color. And so, in some of the junior golf events in So Cal, I would wear red. And I won,&#8221; Tiger once said. Wanting to test her belief, he deliberately switched to blue for other tournaments \u2014 only to be proven wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;I didn&#8217;t win,&#8221; Tiger admitted. &#8220;And so I then switched to red, and I had a lot more success wearing red.&#8221; 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.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Kultida accepted the compromise. &#8220;She said, &#8216;Fine. Just wear it the last day,'&#8221; Tiger shared. From then on, his mom&#8217;s belief became a lasting tradition, one he carried into the biggest moments of his career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">As Tiger continues to mourn 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.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">As Tiger honored his mother&#8217;s memory, he also reflected on the deep love she shared with her grandchildren, Sam and Charlie, and expressed gratitude for the support he received during this difficult time.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump went Instagram official a few days ago, Donald Trump weighed in on what he thinks of the couple&#8217;s romance.
