Vanessa, 47, later reshared the golfer’s post to her Instagram Story.
Just days earlier, Tiger’s 16-year-old son Charlie Woods—whom he shares with ex-wife Elin Nordegren—and Vanessa and Donald Jr.’s 17-year-old daughter Kai Trump competed at the same golf tournament, the Junior Invitational at South Carolina’s Sage Valley Golf Club, which ran from March 19 to 22.
Charlie, for his part, finished the tournament tied for 25th place out of 36 golfers while Kai—who is committed to playing gold at the University of Miami—finished in last place in a group of 24 golfers, per The Palm Beach Post.
Tiger also shares daughter Sam, 17, with Elin, while Vanessa and Donald Jr.—who divorced in 2018 after 13 years of marriage—share kids Donald III, 16, Tristan, 13, Spencer, 12, and Chloe, 10.
And while President Donald Trump hasn’t spoken publicly about Tiger’s relationship with his former daughter-in-law, the President has previously spoken to Tiger’s prowess as an athlete.

Donald Trump Jr.
Months after ended his 13-year marriage to model Vanessa Haydon in 2018, Donald Trump Jr.—Trump’s eldest child with first wife Ivanka—began dating former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle.
Having known each other for years, Guifoyle said she realized instantly the father to Kai (who made a speech at the 2024 Republican National Convention) Donald III, Tristan, Spencer and Chloe was her person.
When they went on their first date, “that was it,” Guilfoyle told Metropolitan Palm Beach magazine in 2022. “Sparks. In fact, we have been together from that night on, happily ever after!”
They got engaged on New Year’s Eve 2020.
Ivanka Trump
As Jared Kushner recalled in his book Breaking History: A White House Memoir, he was introduced to Ivanka Trump, the president-elect’s daughter with ex Ivana, in 2007 after her father suggested they meet to discuss real estate.
“The conversation soon turned to NASCAR, New Jersey diners, and other unlikely interests that we had in common,” he wrote. “That led to a second lunch at my favorite Indian restaurant, the Tamarind Flatiron & Tea Room on Twenty-Second Street, where we talked for three hours.”
Despite a brief split, they finalized their partnership in 2009—marrying at New Jersey’s Trump National Golf Club—and welcomed daughter Arabella in 2011, followed by sons Joseph in 2013 and Theodore in 2016.
Eric Trump
When North Carolina native Lara Trump was introduced to Eric Trump, the politician’s younger son with ex-wife Ivana, she knew she was at the height of something.
“When I first met Eric, I did not know who his dad was,” she recalled on her podcast The Right View of meeting the 6-foot-5 Georgetown University grad in 2008. “I didn’t know his last name initially. I just knew I met some really tall guy out.”
Married at Mar-a-Lago in 2014, they welcomed kids Luke in 2017 and Carolina in 2019. A television producer when she started dating her future husband, Lara served as a campaign advisor for Trump in 2016 and 2020 before being elected as co-chair of the Republican National Committee in March 2024.
Tiffany Trump
Barron Trump
Though Barron Trump, the President’s now-adult son with third wife Melania, hasn’t publicly addressed his dating life, his father suggested the New York University student isn’t prioritizing romance at the moment.
“I’m not sure he’s there yet,” Trump said, when asked by businessman Patrick Bet-David on his PBD Podcast if the college freshman is “good with the ladies in school.”
While Trump said he didn’t believe his youngest had a girlfriend, he raved, “He’s very, very smart. He’s a good student .. goes to a great school and does really well. And he’s a very nice guy.”
Vanessa Trump
Years after finalizing her divorce from Don Jr., the former model is teeing off a new romance, with multiple outlets reporting in March 2025 she and Tiger Woods have been dating for several months.
As for what Vanessa’s former in-laws think of her new man, President Trump previously made it clear he’s nothing short of a big fan, with the Masters champion even attending a White House Black History Month event in February 2025. And he previously bestowed Tiger with the Presidential Medal of Freedom back in 2019.
“We are in the presence of a true legend—an extraordinary athlete who has transformed golf and achieved new levels of dominance,” Trump said at the time. “He’s also a great person.”
