Tiger Woods and his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, shared a touching moment during a milestone event for their son, Charlie Woods. The 15-year-old golf prodigy, who is following in his father’s footsteps, scored his first-ever hole-in-one during the final round of the PNC Championship in Florida on December 22. The proud moment was captured in a heartwarming video shared by Golf on CBS.
In the video, Elin can be seen embracing Tiger with a hug and gently patting him on the back after Charlie’s remarkable achievement. This sweet interaction between the former couple, who have had their share of challenges, marked a poignant moment of unity and support for their son.
Tiger and Elin’s relationship has come a long way since their highly publicized and painful divorce in 2010, which followed Tiger’s infidelity scandal in 2009. Despite the turmoil, the two have worked hard to rebuild a solid friendship, especially for the sake of their children, Charlie and daughter Sam Woods.
Reflecting on their journey in a 2015 Time interview, Tiger admitted, “In hindsight, it’s not how I would change 2009 and how it all came about. It would be having a more open, honest relationship with my ex-wife.” He also shared that, despite everything, he and Elin now enjoy a great friendship, saying, “Having the relationship that I have now with her is fantastic. She’s one of my best friends. We both know that the most important things in our lives are our kids.”
This heartwarming reunion at Charlie’s milestone event serves as a testament to how far Tiger and Elin have come, showing that, despite past struggles, they can come together to support and celebrate their children’s accomplishments. Their ability to put aside past differences and focus on family highlights the strength of their current relationship.
