Since that fateful night more than three years ago when Tiger Woods ran his car into a fire hydrant and may or may not have been attacked with a golf club by his significant other, both the professional athlete and his now ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, have been the subject of numerous personal life rumors. From reconciling to dating people as odd as hockey player Douglas Murray in her case and skier Lindsey Vonn in his case, the whispers have not stopped. In fact, they kicked into overdrive this week thanks to the latest out of left field rumor.
According to The New York Post, Nordegren is dating Chris Cline, as in fifty-three-year-old coal mining billionaire Chris Cline. The father of four, whose first wife died of cancer and second wife is no longer in the picture, is Elin’s neighbor, and if the Post is to be believed, they’ve been spending time together since the holidays. Obviously, neither has said a word about the alleged romance, but given the location proximity and the resources at their disposal, it certainly sounds believable enough.
At one point, laughing about Tiger’s personal life felt a little sad. The wheels had come off his golf game, and he was clearly an absolute mess. With a win last week and rumblings that he could be a serious factor in the majors this year, however, the world seems to be returning back to normal. Here’s to hoping both Elin and Tiger are able to find happiness, whether it’s ultimately together or separately.
