Tiger Woods continues to recover from the serious injuries suffered in his car accident in Southern California earlier this year.
The 15-time major champion has had a lot of support throughout his rehabilitation process. Woods’ longtime girlfriend, Erica Herman, has often been spotted by his side.
“Erica dropped everything to be with Tiger the moment she heard what happened,” a source told Us Weekly. “She’s been by his bedside, holding his hand and telling him everything’s going to be OK. He’s a champ and he’s got this.”
The source added: “She’s been so compassionate and supportive — all his friends and family have. He couldn’t have asked for more in that regard.”
Woods and Herman have been dating for several years. Herman previously worked in Woods’ restaurant in Jupiter, Florida.
Understandably, Woods keeps his personal life pretty private. However, he did share a photo of himself and his kids with Herman on Instagram.
“Masters Champions Dinner quarantine style. Nothing better than being with family,” Woods wrote in 2020.
Woods reportedly first met Herman when she was an undergrad at UCF. She reportedly worked her way up the restaurant chain before landing at job at The Woods. They reportedly grew close through business meetings.
Herman has since been spotted at several of Woods’ golf tournaments.
