Lindsey Vonn and Tiger Woods Break Up

Ezra Shaw/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — Lindsey Vonn and Tiger Woods have split.

The skier and the golfer’s decision to end their “nearly three years together” was mutual, Vonn said on social media Sunday, citing their “hectic lives that force us to spend a majority of our time apart.”

Vonn wrote on Facebook: “After nearly three years together, Tiger and I have mutually decided to end our relationship. I will always cherish the memories that we’ve created together. Unfortunately, we both lead incredibly hectic lives that force us to spend a majority of our time apart. I will always admire and respect Tiger. He and his beautiful family will always hold a special place in my heart.”

The pro athletes also used Facebook to announce the start of their relationship.

In March 2013, Vonn wrote: “I guess it wasn’t a well-kept secret but yes, I am dating Tiger Woods. Our relationship evolved from a friendship into something more over these past few months and it has made me very happy.”

Woods posted at the time: “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.”
