It had been one of the very few times that Nordegren decided to publicly speak about her relationship with Woods after their split. “I have moved on and I am in a good place,” she said. “My relationship with Tiger is centered around our children and we are doing really good — we really are — and I am so happy that is the case. He is a great father.”

The two got divorced in 2010 after Woods was caught up in a scandal, which he admitted to later. The incident also led the player to take a leave from the sport for a long time. Nordegren continued to talk about how the two are managing to be the best parents for their children. “That was always my dream, that the kids can have two loving parents that show respect for each other. And I feel that’s what we have.”
