When Tiger Woods won the Masters last year, his smile couldn't stop, but it wasn't just the trophy that made him smile. After the game, the 44-year-old golf champion embraced restaurant manager Erica Herman in front of the world's cameras. The couple's public kiss cemented Erica's position as the "savior" of troubled tigers. In fact, Erica is not beautiful or young, but she holds the tiger Woods, who is extremely greedy for women.
During his marriage to ex-wife Irene Nordgren, Woods reportedly had illicit relationships with about 120 women who hit him with a golf club after discovering his infidelity. Since then, Woods has been plagued by scandals. Woods has been determined to rebuild the destroyed human set in the past two years, received sex addiction treatment, and began to decide to change his past and be extremely loyal to his other half, so who is the woman who tamed the tiger?
Erica wore the "Player's Spouse" badge, which is usually worn by the Wives group of the Presidents Cup in October 2017, thus announcing the couple's official identity. The golf star is believed to have met his first brunette girlfriend, Erica, for more than a decade at his Florida-based restaurant, the Woods Jupiter, where in 2017 she worked as general manager for several months. When their romance came to light, Erica was known in her small circle as a "gold worshipper" and a "party freak.".
People familiar with the matter also said Thatria, who has a background in the hospitality industry, has been dating the professional golfer for a decade. In An interview with reporters in September, they said: "Erica chased the tiger like a puppy for nearly a decade. We can't believe Tiger is now in public with her. ”
It's unclear if Woods personally hired Erica to work at his restaurant at the time, but during her time there, they would have met several times. This super-luxurious sports bar, where employees wear Nike sneakers and high-end sportswear and provide hot towels to guests after hand-holding meals, is said to have a close-knit team of staff. But Erica stopped working at woods restaurants in February 2018.
In October 2017, just two months after the two formally established their relationship, Erica accompanied Tiger and his two children— 11-year-old daughter Sam and 9-year-old Charlie — to the Bahamas. At the U.S. Open in September 2017, the restaurant manager was also found sitting next to the children, even though she and Woods had not disclosed their relationship at the time.
There were rumors at the time that Tiger had cheated on his former Texas stylist Kristen Smith together with Erica. Woods reportedly dated Kristin in November 2016, but the two are said to have broken up after August 2017 — just a month after someone found out he was with Erica. A source told reporters at the time: "Kristen had suspected this, but he always denied it by belittling Erica. ”
In 2009, when Woods' six-year-long marriage to Erin broke down, there were numerous reports that he spent thousands of dollars on an escort during a golf trip. When Erin's affair with New York nightclub owner Rachel Yuchetel was exposed, the last straw that crushed him finally came. Erin left their marriage with a fortune of £72 million, while Woods began long-term treatment for sex addiction.
From 2012 to May 2015, Woods and Winter Olympic skier Lindsay Vaughn began a three-year relationship. At the time, Lindsay revealed that they had parted ways because they were "together most of the time." But a friend of the golfer later claimed that he was again unfaithful to an "anonymous, unknown woman." Lindsay found the bad woman again, just as he had when he was with Irene.
But now, Woods seems reluctant to fall into the same trap himself, because people see Erica by his side in all major matches, it is simply inseparable, Erica will be Woods' first loyal woman? Let's wait and see.
