Tiger and Lindsey Vonn are Dating

Beat me to it!

Me too. So much for the "Tiger getting back with Elin" rumor. 

Why put it on Facebook, but in the same post ask for people to respect your privacy? Thats their business but in my humble opinion no need for a grand "were dating" accouncement.

I wonder if she's gonna join him at the Masters? I hope this dosen't turn into a circus.

Get another Major first son!

Well that could explain Tiger's increased focus on the course.  As anyone who has played this game long enough knows, if your personal life is messed up, it's hard to focus on the game.

Just saying!!!

Well I guess he wasn't trying that hard to get Elin back ;-)  

From Tiger's FB page today:

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. 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.

Good for them.  Physically, I don't see the appeal to her.  She's a helluvan athlete though, right?

that's a pretty good appeal right there, IMHO

athletic women are great

She is easily one of the top 3 female skiers of all time, second most wins of all time and will break that record next year.

Huge star in Europe (mostly Austria, Switzerland, Germany). I guess she is about as famous as Tiger here.

Word.  Nothing I like more.  

I agree.  I don't see the appeal of Lindsay either.  I don't find her attractive.

Dang! Those look like engagement photos or something. I dont know if it was necessary for them to take it to that level.

It's strange to see Tiger being so open about this. He's super private but is probably just feeding the press what they want. In a way I think these photo's are almost tongue-in-cheek, telling the press to go screw themselves. They are so posed and plastic that they are the antithesis of a paparazzi shot.
