Tiger Woods and his ex-wife Elin Nordegren shared a heartwarming moment after he and their son Charlie finished second at the PNC Championship on Sunday.
The family enjoyed an exciting day at the famed father-son tournament in Orlando, Florida, with 15-year-old Charlie impressively scoring his first hole-in-one during the final round.’
Unfortunately for the youngster, however, it wasn’t to be as him and Woods Sr. were beaten to the title in a play-off by Bernhard and Jason Langer, with the former making eagle on the first play-off hole to seal the win.

Watching on with a keen eye, however, was Nordegren, who was present throughout the tournament to support her son and ex-husband, despite her highly publicised divorce with Woods 14 years ago.
Nonetheless, the pair were seen embracing after the final round as the father-son duo made their way off the course, where their daughter Sam, 17, was also a caddie for her father and brother during the weekend tournament.
Woods and Nordergren’s six-year marriage ended abruptly when the golfer’s infidelity was exposed, with multiple women claiming to have had affairs with him, to which he later confessed to.
In a dramatic turn of events, Nordegren reportedly chased Woods out of their home with a golf club on Thanksgiving in 2009, leading to a car crash and police finding the World Golf Hall of Famer asleep on the road with no shoes or socks on.
The couple’s divorce was finalised a few months later, with Woods releasing a statement expressing remorse for his infidelity, saying: “I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children.
“I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I’ve done but I want to do my best to try.”
Charlie was only eight months old when his parents separated, having been born in February 2009. Despite the challenging split, Nordegren seems to have genuinely moved on, as she was seen warmly interacting with Tiger after their family’s fantastic day on Sunday, with the Swedish model spotted smiling throughout the afternoon.
Nordegren has seldom been seen at many golf events, but this year she has started attending more as Charlie begins to shine as a star in his own right. She now has three children with ex-NFL tight end Jordan Cameron, in addition to Charlie and Sam from her marriage to Tiger.
