Tiger Woods’ Girlfriend Told To Pack For ‘Short Vacation,’ Was Dropped At Airport, Then Locked Out Of His Mansion, Lawsuit Claims

Tiger Woods is arguably the greatest golfer to ever play the game, in no small part because of his imagination. He can simply see shots — from deep rough, cavernous bunkers, short-sided off the green — that other players just can’t see.

But it turns out he’s a master of fanciful invention in his personal life, too — that is, if his now-ex-girlfriend is to be believed.

Erica Herman, 38, who lived with Woods for six years, has filed court papers alleging that “agents” of Woods tricked her into leaving his Florida mansion, saying she was heading out on a “short vacation,” then locked her out of Woods’ house.

“Specifically, by trickery, agents of the Defendant convinced the Plaintiff to pack a suitcase for a short vacation and, when she arrived at the airport, they told her she had been locked out of her residence,” according to the court documents seen by the BBC.

Once she was out, the documents say, her personal possessions were “removed from the property.”

Herman has been at the side of Woods, 47, for half a dozen years, most recently helping him recover from a severe car accident that could have ended his life.

The golfer’s now-former girlfriend also made some shocking allegations in the documents as she tries to void a non-disclosure agreement that she claims she was forced to sign. Under a question that read, “Does this case involve allegations of sexual abuse?” Herman ticked the box for “yes.”

In a separate court filing uncovered by The Daily Mail, Herman is also suing Woods for $30 million, claiming “severe” emotional damage. She claims that Woods’ representatives removed $40,000 of her money and made “scurrilous and defamatory allegations” about how she obtained the money.

The filing also says she provided “valuable services” at Woods’ request as part of an “oral tenancy agreement.” The lawsuit, filed as a trust litigation, says: “All expenses that related to her residency were fully paid by the defendant or its privies.”

Herman also makes an interesting case for the $30 million payout. She claims there were five years left on that oral agreement but Woods used “trickery” to get her out of the house after the pair broke up in October.

The lawsuit says that at the airport, agents of Woods “informed her she was not allowed to return and, without legal counsel to aid her in this emotional moment, utilized a lawyer to confront her with proposals to resolve the wrongdoing they were in the midst of committing.”

“Defendant’s agents attempted to justify their illegal conduct by paying for a hotel room and certain expenses for a short period of time, having successfully locked her out of her home and frightened her away from returning,” the suit says. “Since then plaintiff has continually demanded to be allowed back into her home but defendant’s agents have refused.”

Woods recently filed his own motion in which his lawyers said the golfer ended the relationship and that Herman was told she “was no longer welcome” at the property. His lawyers say she signed a non-disclosure agreement that says disputes will be adjudicated by an independent arbiter, not the courts.

Oscars Deny Zelensky’s Request To Appear On Broadcast For Second Year In A Row: Report

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s attempt to have a telecast appearance at the upcoming Oscars was reportedly rejected for the second year in a row by the awards show.

Variety reported that powerful individuals in Hollywood pled with the Academy to include Zelensky in the 95th Academy Awards this Sunday on ABC, but the effort was denied.

The report said that the Academy Awards rejected Zelensky last year, but for woke reasons, specifically over “concerns that Hollywood was only showering Ukraine with attention because those affected by the conflict are white” while “ignor[ing] wars around the globe that impact people of color.”

While Zelensky made a remote appearance at the Berlin Film Festival last month, he was rejected from the most recent Toronto Film Festival because the organization “does not comment on discussions with dignitaries, government officials or international embassies.”

Public support in the U.S. for Ukraine’s fight against Russia has waned in recent months amid a seemingly never-ending stream of U.S.-taxpayer money being sent to Ukraine and critics who say the Biden administration has had a weak and incompetent response to the invasion. Some have argued that the administration’s delayed response in supporting Ukraine has actually prolonged the war and increased costs on U.S. taxpayers.

“It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and we end up having to fight about what to do and not do,” Biden told reporters a month before Russia invaded. “But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the forces amassed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia if they further invade Ukraine.”

Biden’s remarks were widely viewed as giving a “green light” for President Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine.

Zelenksy urged the U.S. and western powers to enact sanctions against Russia before the invasion and to send military hardware before the fighting started in an effort to prevent the invasion from ever occurring.

After the invasion happened, Zelensky took a shot at the U.S. for only responding to the invasion by enacting sanctions.

“This morning we are defending our state alone. Like yesterday, the world’s most powerful forces are watching from afar,” he said. “Did yesterday’s sanctions convince Russia? We hear in our sky and see on our earth that this was not enough.”

Zelensky’s comments come as Biden said that “no one expected the sanctions to prevent anything from happening.”
