TIGER WOODS is one of the best golfers to have graced the planet – and his love life has been out of the rough recently.
The golfing icon returned to the top of the sport after he secured the Masters title for the fifth time at Augusta in 2019.
But since then, the American mogul has been involved in a horrific car accident which has put his playing career on pause.
However, it seems as if girlfriend Erica is set to be in his corner for the upcoming Masters on Thursday should he participate but who exactly is she?
Golf legend Tiger Woods sparked rumours he had bagged himself another “birdie” when he was spotted cosying up to a beauty on the course.
The star was pictured being hugged by Erica Herman as he watched the US win the Presidents Cup in New Jersey in October 2017.
Erica – who managed his pop-up restaurant titled The Woods – was wearing a “player spouse” badge usually reserved for wives and girlfriends.
And the pair went public with their relationship that November.
She then cheered him to victory when he won his historic 80th PGA at the Tour Championship, at East Lake, Georgia.
Once branded a “gold digger” who “chased Tiger like a puppy”, she is now credited with saving the golf legend’s life.
Tiger Woods married Elin Nordegren in 2004 but they divorced in 2010 following his infidelity.
He has had many lovers since, including a pornstars and nightclub hostesses.
In August 2017, Tiger announced he was splitting up with girlfriend Kristin Smith.
The Dallas-based personal stylist had thought the golfer was cheating on her and had broken down crying after his DUI arrest in the spring, reported Radar Online.
Since then he has been linked to fitness model Laci Kay Somers following reports in the US that the pair had partied together.
Woods also dated Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn.
