Woods, 37, posted his own Facebook message with photos as well. "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," the pro golfer 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."
