How did Woods’ personal life affect Williams?

Williams also referred to an incident where he had nothing to do with what was happening and yet he was questioned and taunted. It was after Woods crashed his car on Thanksgiving in 2009, post-argument with his ex-wife Elin Nordegren.

The caddie said that he was dragged through everything that went wrong with the golf pro, but Woods’ people never helped him. Williams also wrote that other people in the golfer’s circle used to help Woods in his wrongful deeds. He said that if he had known Woods was cheating, he would have put his foot down. “I didn’t know because Tiger didn’t dare tell me.” He said.
