(Newswire.net — March 19, 2013) Los Angeles, CA — We all know Tiger Woods is great at golf. We also know if there is one other thing, it’s keeping his private life tremendously private.

So this post on Tiger Wood’s Facebook page was very unexpected. On March 18th 2013, Tiger posted  on facebook 4 images of Lindsey Vonn & himself, with the following message.

“This season has been great so far and I’m happy with my wins at Torrey and Doral. Something nice that’s happened off the course was meeting Lindsey Vonn. Lindsey and I have been friends for some time, but over the last few months we have become very close and are now dating. We thank you for your support and for respecting our privacy. We want to continue our relationship, privately, as an ordinary couple and continue to compete as athletes.” 

Vonn, who won a gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics, has been rumored to be seen with Tiger during the past few months, but this is 1st official announcement that the two are actually an couple.

This was Vonn’s statement on the relationship:

“I guess it wasn’t a well-kept secret but yes, I am dating Tiger Woods. Our relationship evolved from a friendship into something more over these past few months and it has made me very happy. I don’t plan on addressing this further as I would like to keep that part of my life between us, my family and close friends. Thank you for understanding and your continued support! xo LV”
