Tiger Woods is celebrating a major moment in his son’s golfing career. During the final round of the PNC Championship in Florida on December 22nd, Tiger’s 15-year-old son, Charlie Woods, achieved a remarkable feat—his first-ever hole-in-one. The moment was made even more special as Tiger’s ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, was by his side to share in the excitement.
In a touching video shared on Instagram by Golf on CBS, Elin embraced Tiger, gently patting him on the back after Charlie’s incredible shot on the 18th hole. This heartwarming moment marked a significant shift in the couple’s relationship, especially considering their tumultuous history. Their marriage ended after Tiger’s highly publicized cheating scandal in 2009, which led to their divorce the following year.
However, despite the painful past, Tiger and Elin have built a solid friendship over the years, with a shared focus on raising their two children, Sam and Charlie. Reflecting on his past mistakes in a 2015 interview, Tiger shared that in hindsight, he wished he’d had a more open and honest relationship with Elin. He added, “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 reunion at Charlie’s milestone golf event is a clear indication of how far Tiger and Elin have come. As they continue to co-parent their children, their mutual support and respect for each other is evident, making the moment even more special.
