Tiger Woods’ former spouse, Elin Nordegren, has expressed worry following his arrest for suspected driving under the influence. The renowned American golf player was taken into custody after his Land Rover overturned in Florida on Friday. Despite escaping injury, Woods had to exit the vehicle through the passenger side after the rollover.
Released on bail, the 50-year-old also faces charges for property damage and refusal to undergo a lawful test. According to Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek, the 15-time Major champion displayed signs of impairment and declined to provide a urine sample. Reports indicate that Vanessa Trump, Woods’ current partner, reprimanded him, leading Nordegren to express her concerns over his recurring driving incidents.
A source close to the situation shared, “The kids have a strong bond with Tiger, so naturally, Elin is worried too. She wants him to prioritize his well-being. Both children adore spending time with their father, and Elin is troubled by his recent car crash and arrest.”
Woods had a previous car accident in 2009 involving sleeping pills and a DUI charge in 2017 attributed to an unexpected reaction to prescribed medication. In 2021, he survived a high-speed crash in California, sustaining severe leg and ankle injuries that almost required amputation.
Commenting on Woods’ recovery from the 2021 crash, the source added, “[Elin] simply wants him to make wise decisions for his health and for the sake of their children.” Woods and Nordegren, who split in 2010, share two children: 18-year-old daughter Sam and 17-year-old son Charlie. Woods is currently in a relationship with Vanessa Trump, the former spouse of Donald Trump Jr.
Upon learning of Woods’ latest crash, his girlfriend expressed frustration, stating, “She’s not pleased at all. She’s disappointed and somewhat annoyed. It’s a significant warning sign. She insisted that he address the situation promptly, or she may reconsider their relationship.”
Describing the situation further, the source revealed, “He appears genuinely remorseful. He is determined to rectify this situation and is deeply embarrassed by the incident. Vanessa is equally embarrassed, and her friends are questioning the circumstances.”
