Tiger Woods Dragged Into Royal Controversy As Sarah Ferguson’s ‘Obsessive Behavior’ Sparks Uproar, Book Reveals

Sarah Ferguson was once married to a prince, but according to a bombshell tell-all, she later had her eye on a certain professional golfer.

The Duchess of York, 65, tied the knot with Prince Andrew, 65, in 1986, but the pair called it quits in 1992. Their divorce was later finalized in 1996 and it didn’t take long for another man to steal her heart – even if he didn’t know it yet!

Royal author Andrew Lownie revealed that Sarah – nicknamed Fergie – once confessed to Piers Morgan that she was “in love” with Tiger Woods in an excerpt of his upcoming book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, obtained

“Who’s the lucky guy?” Morgan had asked her, according to Lownie.

“He doesn’t know yet,” Fergie quipped. “It’s Tiger Woods! He’s so gorgeous. Do you think I stand a chance with him?”

The English broadcaster reportedly said the golfer might not have time for a relationship due to his bustling career, to which she responded, “Well, I am going to follow him around the course for a bit and see how I get on.”

Tiger Woods wasn’t the only man Fergie had her eye on. Lownie claimed she also had a crush on John F. Kennedy Jr. Despite the fact that JFK Jr. had a girlfriend at the time – Blade Runner actress Daryl Hannah – Fergie invited him out for drinks while on a visit to New York.

The son of late president John F. Kennedy later canceled the get-together, allegedly causing Fergie to ask her staffers to watch his apartment to verify if he was being honest with her about having other plans.

In her spare time, Fergie would fawn over magazine articles and photos of him. She went so far as to give JFK Jr. the nickname “Number Nine” – as he would potentially be her ninth lover, according to Lownie’s book.

A source close to Fergie claimed she would even speak as if they knew each other.

“She’ll suddenly ask, ‘Do you think Ken will mind that I don’t like such and such a thing?’” the confidante said. “It’s incredibly real to her, like a schoolgirl crush. She spends hours talking about him. The fact that she’s never even met him doesn’t seem to matter at all.”

Lownie also didn’t shy away from revealing shocking bombshells about her ex-husband Andrew’s wild behavior in an article published by the

Speaking of his alleged obsession with sex, one source called him “as subtle as a hand grenade” and claimed his “favorite trick” was to make a pass at a woman by rubbing her knee “under the table.”

Another person said, “He’s a nightmare to sit next to at dinner. He makes ghastly jokes about whether you’re wearing knickers. And you can’t tell him to sod off.”

As the Examiner previously reported, there could be more revelations to come. Lownie is rumored to have held back a number of “explosive details and stories” in preparation for a second book or a documentary.

“There’s just so much intrigue and marketability in Prince Andrew’s story, in Hollywood and all over the world,” the insider told the Examiner. “A lot of people are now coming out of the woodwork to cash in and share their own experiences.”

Kai Trump Breaks Silence on Vanessa’s Role in His Golf Career as Tiger Woods Remains in the Picture

Kai Trump has admitted that it was actually her mother, Vanessa Trump, who got her into golf while she was a child – despite having no interest in the sport herself and now being in a relationship with Tiger Woods.

Vanessa is the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr., with the pair raising five children, including Kai. They had been married for 13 years before divorcing in 2018, but they remain on good terms amid Donald Trump’s presidency runs.

Now, Vanessa is in a relationship with Woods. The legendary golf star began playing golf with Kai, 18, who hopes to go professional.

Speaking on her early golfing days, Kai admitted Vanessa had the biggest impact in getting her to play young.

While on the AJGA show on Instagram, Kai said: “I started playing golf when I was two years old and my mom actually got me into it. She doesn’t play golf, that’s the thing. – she plays tennis.

“I used to play tennis as well. But she’d also practice golf with me, she’d roll the balls to me and I would putt them.”

She would go on to mention Woods as the biggest influence on her career, even before the PGA Tour legend got involved with her mother, Vanessa.

Kai added: “I would say a lot of the pros, obviously, like looking up to them and watching them. Obviously, Tiger [Woods], Rory [McIlroy]. Like watching those guys, especially at such a young age, and now I get to know them. It has been really cool, and that obviously kind of influenced me. But also, I’d say like my mom, I wouldn’t be playing golf without her.”

Kai is set to enroll at the University of Miami in 2026. There, she will continue her golf career and aim to play professionally when she graduates.

When asked how she’ll continue to improve, Kai said: “Just playing a lot of events, just gaining experience.

“But also practice. If I have two hours, I’m not gonna hit a few balls, go on my phone and scroll. No, I’m going to take full-on advantage with the time I have on the course.

“I think that’s going to get me to the next level for sure, as well as just training in the gym, getting stronger and playing more rounds.

“The more golf I play, the better I’ll do. Getting experience. Miami gave me a great opportunity, and I’m really looking forward to that.”

Charlie Woods’ hopes of making United States Junior Ryder Cup team aren’t completely lost despite coming up short of an automatic last week at the 49th Junior PGA Championships

Woods, a rising junior at the Benjamin School and son of legendary golfer Tiger Woods, shot 74 (3-over) in the final round on Aug. 1 in West Lafayette, Indiana.

He enjoyed a strong week overall in finishing the tournament 9-under and tied for ninth overall, though he started the final round tied for second and holding an automatic Junior Ryder bid.

The winner and runner-up from the Junior PGA Championships were each guaranteed a place on the team as long as they were eligible. Tournament winner Lunden Esterline and Royal Palm Beach’s Giuseppe Puebla nabbed the automatic bids.

Despite the setback, Golf Channel writer Brentley Romine outlined on X how Woods could still potentially earn a place on the U.S. Junior Ryder Cup team.

49th Junior PGA Championships: How did Charlie Woods fare in the final round?

Esterline and Puebla have already joined Hamilton Coleman (U.S. Junior Amateur champion), Miles Russell (No. 1 in qualifying points) and Tyler Mawhinney (No. 2 in qualifying points) to take five of the six available roster spots.

A sixth and final roster post will be a captain’s choice at the discretion of Suzy Whaley, a PGA of America Hall of Famer who calls Palm Beach Gardens home. The deadline for the pick is Tuesday, Aug. 5.

Romine pointed out that Woods could be picked as a captain’s selection to help raise awareness of the event.

“Woods is ranked 879thin WAGR, though he contended at Junior PGA before final-round 74 knocked him to T-9. Picking Charlie would increase the exposure of the event and ensure that Tiger Woods is at least at the early-week festivities at Bethpage.”

The 13th Junior Ryder Cup will be contested from Sept. 23-25, 2025 at Nassau Country Club and Bethpage Black in New York.

 Golf World Holds Its Breath As Woods’ Next Move Remains a Mystery

The silence is deafening—and the anticipation, electric.

As the PGA Tour pushes through its final stretch of the season and rising stars battle for supremacy, one name continues to linger in the shadows of every leaderboard, interview, and gallery whisper: Tiger Woods.

After a year marked by brief appearances, flashes of brilliance, and ongoing physical challenges, the 15-time major champion has once again receded from the public eye. And now, as the golf world peers into the unknown, one question looms larger than any tournament:
What is Tiger Woods planning?

Quiet Work Behind the Scenes

Sources close to Woods say he’s been quietly putting in work—grinding at his private facility in Florida, dialing in his short game, and carefully testing the limits of his body. While no official schedule has been released, those in his orbit suggest that “something is coming.”

“He’s not done,” one longtime friend recently told Golf Weekly. “He’s just choosing his moment—and when it comes, it won’t be small.”

The competitive fire that made Tiger the most feared name in golf hasn’t dimmed, even as time and injury have tried to slow him down. Every rare glimpse—a range session, a walk alongside his son Charlie, or a cryptic Instagram post—sets social media ablaze with speculation.

Augusta, Pebble, or the Open?

With the 2026 golf calendar beginning to take shape, fans and analysts alike are eyeing potential return venues. The Masters at Augusta National is an obvious target. It’s where he’s won five green jackets and made arguably the greatest comeback in golf history in 2019.

Another possibility: Pebble Beach. It’s the site of his legendary 15-stroke U.S. Open victory in 2000 and a course known to suit his strategic game.

Then there’s The Open Championship—its flatter terrain and storied history could offer the ideal setting for one more Tiger moment.

But as of now, no confirmations. No teases. No hints. Just silence.

From Competitor to Architect

Even as he weighs his next steps on the course, Woods continues to influence golf’s future. He’s a driving force behind the upcoming TGL, a tech-forward golf league that merges virtual play with real-world strategy. He’s also guiding the next generation, especially his son Charlie, who’s now turning heads in junior tournaments.

Still, for millions of fans, the burning hope remains singular: one more run. One more Sunday charge. One more Tiger roar.

The Calm Before the Comeback?

Sam Alex Woods

Every week that passes without an announcement deepens the mystery. Every swing posted from a fan’s phone, every sighting of Tiger with a club in hand, fuels the firestorm.

Whether it’s Augusta, St. Andrews, or somewhere unexpected, one thing is certain: when Tiger Woods finally steps back into the arena, golf won’t just welcome him back—it will stop to watch.

Until then, the world waits.

Sam Woods Continues to Shine in Her Own Way — Not Just Tiger Woods’ Daughter, But a Star in Her Own Right

Sam Woods, the daughter of golf legend Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren, is proving that greatness doesn’t have to be inherited — it can also be earned. While her last name might ring with historic echoes from Augusta to Pebble Beach, Sam is building her own legacy, one defined not by fairways and putts, but by intelligence, integrity, and a quiet kind of confidence that’s turning heads for all the right reasons.

Still just a teenager, Sam is fast becoming a name to watch — not as Tiger Woods’ daughter, but as Sam Woods, the scholar, speaker, athlete, and leader in her own right.

A Young Woman of Grace and Grit

At school, Sam has earned a reputation for her academic diligence and unwavering school spirit. From participating in leadership programs to excelling in the classroom, she’s not only embraced her education but also used it as a platform for personal growth. Teachers describe her as “focused, articulate, and thoughtful” — qualities that reflect the discipline and drive often associated with elite athletes, but here applied in new and inspiring directions.

Her speech at the World Golf Hall of Fame induction ceremony for her father in 2022 offered a rare and touching glimpse into her character — poised, articulate, and emotionally intelligent beyond her years. While millions tuned in to hear Tiger’s achievements recognized, it was Sam’s heartfelt words and composed delivery that stole the spotlight.

Stepping Out of the Shadows

For many children of celebrities, living in the public eye can be a double-edged sword. But Sam has chosen a path that doesn’t lean on her father’s fame, nor does it run from it. Instead, she walks beside it — proud of her heritage, yet firm in her individual direction.

Whether it’s competing in school sports, volunteering for community projects, or simply supporting her younger brother Charlie during his competitive golf outings, Sam consistently carries herself with grace. She’s become a quiet anchor for the Woods family — strong, steady, and refreshingly grounded.

Personal Milestones That Matter

This past year marked several milestones in Sam’s journey — from academic honors to a leadership award that recognized her work on and off campus. Each success has come not from the spotlight, but from the shadows where real work gets done — long nights studying, early mornings at team meetings, countless hours of preparation for public speaking events.

These aren’t achievements that make headlines in sports pages, but they’re building blocks of a young woman determined to live with purpose. She’s proving that success isn’t always about trophies or titles. Sometimes it’s about integrity, effort, and vision.

The Future: Hers to Define

While the public often speculates whether she will ever step onto a professional stage like her father or brother, Sam seems more focused on defining success on her own terms. Whether that leads her into the worlds of law, media, philanthropy, or something entirely unexpected, one thing is clear — Sam Woods is carving a path that belongs solely to her.

And that may be the most impressive legacy of all.

In a world eager to label and compare, Sam Woods is a refreshing reminder that real identity is something you build — not something you’re handed. And with each step she takes, she reminds us all that being Tiger Woods’ daughter is just one part of her story — not the whole of it.

Charlie Woods Keeps Title Hopes Alive After Intriguing Round 3 at Junior PGA Championship

WEST LAFAYETTE ― A starting crowd of roughly 500 fans expecting to see Charlie Woods ― the son of golf legend Tiger Woods and hoping to get a glimpse of Tiger himself ― saw something different.

Those that stayed witnessed a 16-year-old exhibit the quiet confidence, leveled ball-striking and putting of an elite level player and master of a course that only two days ago had stumped him and left him in 43rd place after the first round of the Junior PGA Championship.

Charlie Woods second shot on the 18th hole par 4 dropped firmly onto the green before he calmly putted for birdie to finish -12, placing him in second place and in the hunt for the final round on Friday.

“My round was pretty up and down and it gave me a heart attack out there,” Woods said. “But nine birdies is pretty good. A couple of three putts, I made a few mistakes today but overall pretty solid round. Pretty good position going into tomorrow.”

Woods will tee off at 10:06 a.m. tomorrow joined by leader Lunden Esterline (-19) and Pennson Badget (-12) in the Junior PGA Championship final round.

Woods was in control of the Ackerman-Allen Golf Course in West Lafayette during his second time around, even after his tee time was delayed two hours because of rainstorms and soggy conditions.

Woods birdied the first hole and would stay steady throughout the round, exhibiting zero timidness after having missed the cut at the U.S. Junior Amateur Championship last month in Dallas.

The best shot of the night for Woods came on the 10th hole, spotting an iron shot two feet for a tap in birdie before outdoing himself with his finale on 18.

As he walked to finish his birdie putt, The Clubhouse Bar & Grill at Birck Boilermaker Complex was lined with fans celebrating Woods success.

He birdied, shook the hands of playing partners Sam Carraher of Crown Point, Indiana, and Ronin Banerjee of Irvine, California, before turning over his scorecard to tournament officials.

“It was so much fun,” Woods said. “I had a pretty fun chip on 16 but I just enjoyed being out there, having fun and hopefully I have a good chance of winning tomorrow.”

Tiger Woods’ son Charlie Woods Continues to Impress With Strong Showing at Junior PGA Championship in West Lafayette

WEST LAFAYETTE — Charlie Woods entered the Junior PGA Championship and started slow, just cracking the top 50 on Tuesday at Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex in West Lafayette.

Woods would prove to doubters, if there were any, that he could hold his own on the big stage just over a week after being cut in the U.S. Amateur Championship in Dallas.

While the final result wasn’t what Woods had desired on Friday, it still sends a message that golf’s famous teenager could play the sport at an elite level.

Woods finished the Junior PGA Championship 9-under-par and tied for ninth after shooting a 74 on Friday afternoon.

His top nine finish gives him an automatic invite to next year’s Junior PGA Tournament at Fields Range in Frisco, Texas.

Woods also has a chance to be a captain’s pick for the U.S. Junior Ryder Cup team which will be announced Tuesday.

While Woods wasn’t made available for media post match on Friday, there were plenty of compliments shared in his direction about his game by 2025 Junior PGA Championship winner Lunden Esterline.

“I had fun playing with him and Pennson (Badgett),” Esterline said. “They were both good guys.”

Three bogies and a double bogey on 15 ultimately hampered the 16-year-old from Jupiter, Florida.

His putting didn’t carry the same sharpness on the greens at Ackerman-Allen Course where he’d birdied nine times the day before.

Tiger Woods Draws a Bold Line: Sets Firm Boundaries as Charlie Embarks on His Own Journey to Greatness

When it comes to raising a child in the shadow of sports stardom, Tiger Woods is taking a decidedly careful route. For all the headlines about Charlie Woods‘ budding golf career, what stands out most is how Tiger is determined to let his son write his own story.

Public perception might suggest Tiger is handing the keys to the kingdom to Charlie, but the reality is more nuanced.

Those close to the Woods family say Tiger‘s main priority is ensuring that his son has both space and support. That means keeping golf fun and letting Charlie learn for himself, rather than dictating every move.

But that freedom has its boundaries-especially when it comes to the family’s considerable wealth. Reports in the US and Britain confirm that while both Charlie and his sister are the beneficiaries of sizable trusts, neither will have access to the funds until they reach adulthood. The message is clear: nothing is automatic, and responsibility is non-negotiable.

Charlie Woods

Tiger’s wealth brings privilege, but also rules

It’s no secret that Tiger Woods has built an empire, with Forbes estimating his net worth around $1.3 billion. Yet his children aren’t being handed blank checks. According to British media, each has a trust valued at $20 million, and Charlie, at just 16, even holds titles to a pair of luxury homes. But there’s a catch-he’ll have to wait until he turns 21 to unlock that inheritance.

RELATED : “Echoes of a Legend: Charlie Woods, 16, Stuns With a Round

Away from financial matters, the real story is on the course. Charlie‘s progress is watched closely by fans, experts, and, of course, his famous father. So far, Tiger has avoided the temptation to push too hard, hoping to shield his son from the relentless pressures of comparison and expectation.

Tiger woods

That doesn’t mean Charlie‘s future is set in stone. While his junior tournament performances have impressed, predicting his path is impossible. Will he follow his father’s footsteps into greatness? That remains to be seen.

For now, Tiger‘s approach is simple: give Charlie the room to grow, while quietly ensuring that the guide rails are firmly in place. If Charlie does become golf’s next superstar, it will be on his terms, and with a family legacy that’s about more than just trophies and bank accounts.
