Lindsey Vonn Reportedly Waits In Car To Avoid Bumping Into Tiger Woods' Ex, Elin Nordegren

Why Did Lindsey Vonn Wait In Tiger Woods' Car For An Hour?

Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn may be the couple of the moment, but even this sporty pair can't avoid awkward encounters with exes.

According to the Daily Mail, Vonn was spotted waiting for a full hour in Woods' car on Monday, apparently to avoid bumping into her beau's ex-wife, Elin Nordegren.

While Vonn remained discreetly in Woods' parked car, the golfer and his ex attended their daughter Samantha's junior baseball game, during which they sat at "opposite ends of the stadium," E! Online also reported.

After months of speculation and some bashfulness on the part of the couple, Woods and his new love made their relationship official on Facebook on Monday:

Accompanying a series of official pictures of the lovebirds, Woods wrote:

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.

More than 35,000 people have "liked" the golfer's romantic announcement, with many fans offering their congratulations to the happy couple.

"[B]oth of you are gifted athletes and you both seem to care about each other. I especially liked you sending your jet for her and her not trying to mess with your kids time by waiting in the car, truly respectful," wrote one Facebook user on Tuesday. "Wishing you both the best. Now grab the world and spin it like you both can."

"I guess it wasn't a well-kept secret but yes, I am dating Tiger Woods," Vonn also announced via Facebook on Monday. "Our relationship evolved from a friendship into something more over these past few months and it has made me very happy."
