Tiger Woods came face to face with ex-wife Elin Nordegren this week when the divorced couple attended their son Charlie’s state golf championship ceremony.
Woods, 48, was married to Swedish model Nordegren, 44, for six years before divorcing in 2010, with the golf legend’s infamous cheating ultimately ending their marriage.
Before going their separate ways, they welcomed two children together in Charlie, now 15, and daughter Samantha, 16 – with Nordegren having a fourth son, Arthur, with former NFL star Jordan Cameron in December 2019.
Nevertheless, it appears that Woods and his former partner have mastered the art of co-parenting, despite his infidelity nearly two decades ago.
Both Tiger and Elin were on hand Tuesday at the Benjamin School in Palm Beach, Florida, as Charlie celebrated winning a high school state golf championship after he and his teammates emerged victorious in the FHSAA Class A boys competition.

In December 2022, Tiger and Charlie Nordegren reportedly gave a shoutout at the PNC Championship following the arrival of her fourth child, according to Golf monthly.
Additionally, Erin was spotted following Tiger and Charlie in 2020 when the father and son competed together in the PNC Championship.
Charlie was eleven at the time and it was the first time he had played golf under such spotlights.
“I don’t think words can describe it,” Woods said. “Just the fact that we were able to have this experience together, Charlie and I, it’s memories for a lifetime.”
Tiger has highlighted in the past how he and Erin prioritize the well-being of their children, despite such public division in 2010 in a story that gripped the world.
Speaking to TIME magazine in 2015, Woods said: “It’s great to have the relationship I have with her now. She’s one of my best friends.
“We can pick up the phone and we talk to each other all the time. We both know that the most important things in our lives are our children.’

The ex-couple’s reunion comes after Woods’ former agent Hughes Norton opened up about his old client and recalled his “zombie-like” approach to ending relationships.
Ahead of the release of his tell-all book, Rainmaker, which hit shelves in the US on March 26, Norton spoke to Mail Sport about understanding his meteoric rise and abrupt fall – which ended when Woods fired him in 1998.
“The consolation I can find, which doesn’t amount to much, is this: He was an equal opportunity zombie with relationships, his swing coaches, his lawyer, the guy who negotiated the IMG representation deal, with caddies,” he said about the 15-time big winner. ‘When it’s over, it’s over.
“It’s the way he ends relationships with everyone. Whether they are girlfriends, or they are his former golf coaches.
‘It’s actually ironic. In a way, he’s so good at confrontation on the golf course. When he plays you, he beats your brains out every time.
“But when it comes to confronting things like me and other people in his life, he has no social skills whatsoever. It’s actually maddening.’
Last November, Erica Herman, Woods’ ex-girlfriend of five years, dropped legal action against the golfer, saying she was not a victim of sexual abuse during her time with him.
