Few celebrities, if any, have had nastier public breakups than Tiger Woods and his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren.
The legendary PGA Tour star and the Swedish model were married from 2004-10. They had a nasty, public breakup, as Woods was accused of having several affairs, with women including adult film stars and waitresses, among others. The couple has two children together, making the divorce even tougher.
But more than a decade has passed since the divorce. Both Woods and Nordegren have moved on, with different relationships. They continue to co-parent their two children, Sam and Charlie, together.

Over the weekend, Charlie Woods and his high school, The Benjamin School, won the Florida 1A State Championship in golf. Charlie Woods, the 16-year-old son of Tiger and Woods and Elin Nordegren, finished in fourth place individually. It was The Benjamin School’s second state championship in three years.
As Charlie Woods won a state championship, both of his parents were in attendance – and standing next to each other – at the event.

It’s a great example to parents everywhere
Tiger and Elin are showing that while you can go through tough times in a relationship, and even get divorced, you can still eventually mend the fences and come together for your children.
The legendary PGA Tour star and his ex-wife are showing their kids that they are what matter most. Tiger and Elin have surely had their fair share of struggles over the years, with many of them being intense and borderline nasty.
But it’s been a long time since those days and both Tiger and Elin are showing that they can put that behind themselves, to set a good example for their children moving forward in life.
Well done, Tiger and Elin.
