Relationships between celebrities often sour out due to external issues, like schedules or paparazzi pressure. But, for the Alpine Skiing queen, Lindsey Vonn, things were not as simple. Though Vonn is an elite athlete, it seems the territory was a bit too much to tackle for her.

The duo became official in 2012 and dated till 2015 before announcing a mutual separation. This honestly came as a shock because to fans, the couple was made for each other.

But the actual truth between Vonn and Woods was spilled out by the Olympian herself. In a 2016 article, she detailed what it actually felt like to date the greatest golfer of all time. And, the reality is far from roses and rainbows.
