Tiger Woods has come a long way from the days when his extramarital affairs cast a dark shadow over his public image.
Not only did Woods' adulterous behavior irreversibly damage his relationship with his ex-wife Elin Nordegren back in 2010, but it also affected his professional career as a pro-golfer. Now, three years later, the world champion has managed to get back into the swing of things, rejuvenating both his personal and professional life.
In March, he and his girlfriend Lindsey Vonn announced that they were dating and quickly became one of the hottest couples in the sports world. Instead of suffering from the guilt and humiliation of being known as an adulterer and sex addict, now it seems that the only thing the 37-year-old world class golfer is worrying about is a bad back.
Woods recently told Fox News that he quit the pro-am portion of The Barclays tournament after nine holes due to a stiff back and neck. According to Woods, sleeping on "hotel beds" is the root of his pain.
"I didn't want to push it, so I just chipped and putted," said the father of two. "It was fine at home, just hotel beds."
When asked if he will try to change his bed situation, he reportedly smiled and replied, "What do you think?"
Besides getting his career back on track, his girlfriend is giving him a lot of other reasons to smile. Vonn recently hinted about the bliss she's been in ever since hooking up with her famous beau in an interview with Red Bull.
Although the 28-year-old Olympic skier didn't mention Woods directly, she revealed that she's currently in "a new chapter" of her life and has been spending lots of time with "friends and family" during her break from her career due to her knee injury. In other words: everything between her and the pro-golfer is going smoothly. The couple has been dating since last fall and went public back in March.
The happy couple was recently spotted spending time together at Hyde Beach in Miami. Vonn, who was in town for a Red Bull sponsored event, was seen lounging on the beach with Woods and a group of friends, reports the Miami Herald.
