Tiger Woods’ daughter Sam shared Nordegren’s pain
Nordegren and Woods have two children together – Sam and Charlie. After Nordegren found out about Woods’ affairs, it was hard for her to bear the pain alone. And so her friends came forward to support her during these hard times. But they were not the only ones supporting her.
Woods had a huge career ahead of him. And his injuries gave him another reason to focus on himself. So he moved on with his golfing career and got treatment for his injuries. While his ex-wife Nordegren was going through excruciating pain at the time. Being a mother, she tried to be there for her kids, but it was her who needed to be protected.

Nordegren’s friend recalled her talking about her conversation with Sam. “She just sat down amid the moving boxes with her stuff. Sam came over and said, ‘What’s wrong, Mommy?’ ‘Mommy’s got a booboo.’ She said, ‘Where? I’ll kiss it and make it feel better.’ And Elin said, ‘It’s in Mommy’s heart.’” A heartbreak can tear a person apart, but only the person actually going through it can understand the pain of facing it all alone.
