Relationships between couples can be sour due to external pressure and too much media attention. Unexpectedly, the ties between Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn suffered from similar issues. Even though Vonn is a renowned Alpine skier, things went south for her in her relationship with the golf legend. And it was too much for her to tackle. When they were together, they were the power couple of the sporting world. 

When they made their relationship official in 2013, it seemed like the couple would be together for several years. However, their relationship could not survive due to several reasons, and they split mutually in 2015. This was a shock to many fans as the couple was known to be made for each other. However, Vonn revealed the truth a year after her breakup with the golfer. In 2016, she spilled the beans as to why her relationship was too much for her.

What did Lindsey Vonn say about her relationship with Tiger Woods?

In 2016, the Olympic skier sat down for an interview with E! News to promote her book ‘Strong Is the New Beautiful.’ There she also spoke about her failed relationship with Woods. The split was hard for both sports stars, even though it was mutual. However, it was too hard on Vonn because of all the unwanted spotlight on her. “It was essentially being in a fish bowl. Everyone’s looking at you and judging you and commenting on what they think is right or wrong,” said Vonn.
