Tiger Woods’ former spouse, Elin Nordegren, is reportedly expressing concerns over his well-being following his recent arrest on suspicion of driving while impaired. The renowned US golf icon was taken into custody and charged with property damage and refusal to undergo a lawful test after his Land Rover overturned in Florida. Despite no injuries, Woods had to exit the vehicle through the passenger door as it had flipped onto its side.
Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek noted that the 15-time Major champion displayed signs of impairment and declined to provide a urine sample. Reports suggest that Woods faced criticism from his partner, Vanessa Trump, while his ex-wife Nordegren is also troubled by this latest incident in a pattern of driving-related troubles.
A close source revealed, “The children have a strong bond with Tiger, so naturally, Elin is concerned. She wants him to prioritize his well-being. Both kids adore spending time with their father. Elin is worried about his recent crash and arrest.”
Woods previously encountered a crash in 2009 involving sleeping pills and a DUI charge in 2017 attributed to an adverse reaction to prescribed medication. In a severe incident in 2021, he narrowly survived a high-speed SUV crash near Los Angeles, sustaining severe leg and ankle injuries that nearly led to amputation, according to his statements later.
His recovery following the 2021 California crash was described as grueling by sources. They emphasized Elin’s desire for Woods to make prudent decisions for himself, especially regarding his health and his responsibilities to their children.
Woods and ex-wife Nordegren, who split in 2010, share two children, Sam (18) and Charlie (17). Currently, the golfer is romantically involved with Vanessa Trump, the former wife of Donald Trump Jr. Vanessa expressed displeasure upon learning about Woods’ latest crash, indicating that it is a significant concern for her and that she expects him to address the issue promptly to maintain their relationship.
Sources close to the situation mentioned, “This concerned girlfriend is setting boundaries and demanding that he addresses his issues immediately. He must take control of the situation, or she may not continue the relationship.”
The insider further disclosed, “He appears deeply sorry and motivated to resolve the situation. He feels embarrassed and humiliated, especially considering the recurrence of such incidents. Vanessa is embarrassed as well, and her friends are questioning the situation.”
