'He’s very mentally tough,' Lindsey Vonn once revealed how Tiger Woods support helped skier overcome 2013 World Championships injury struggles

Vonn praised Woods for being there with her during one of the toughest moments of her life. She noted that since the GOAT himself suffered an ACL injury “he knew what I was going through.” She praised her then-boyfriend saying “he’s very patient and he’s very mentally tough.”

He said just be patient, keep working hard, and everything is going to turn around. It really helped me get through it. Lindsey Vonn as per US Magazine.

Lindsey Vonn admits staying positive during tough times “is not always the easiest thing”

After undergoing painful ACL surgery, and spending hours in rehabilitation, Lindsey Vonn admitted that staying positive during these times “is not always the easiest thing. It’s very monotonous work”. Vonn, who suffered continuous injuries in her career, knew what she was dealing with and how much it would later affect her professional career.

Despite being down with worry and fear over her professional battles, she thanks her then-boyfriend Tiger Woods for being by her side. She has played golf many times while accompanying Woods, and said that the game teaches one to “ have a lot of patience.”

I’m not very good at that. I’m very instinctual and I want to do things right now and I’m pretty aggressive…he taught me to stay calm…stay patient. Lindsey Vonn on Today Show.

Taking “one step at a time, one thing at a time” helped Vonn overcome her struggles and led to positivity. Vonn’s competitive spirit never broke during tough times and still remains lit up. There was also a recent rumor about the skier making her return, but no confirmation has been made since.

Just like Woods stood by Vonn’s side, she too supported and prayed for the golf legend when he suffered from the horrifying 2021 car crash. She boldly stated that she believes in Tiger Woods both the person and the athlete and is sure he’ll make his return on the greens with a bang.

True to his nature, the GOAT came in and out of professional events since recuperation. Finally, in 2023, he made a successful comeback with the promise to play at least one tournament starting in 2024. The bond between these two sportspeople is still there. They both consider each other their friends, unlike Woods’ messy breakups with his past girlfriends.

Unfortunately, despite fan’s tremendous support for the duo, they broke up due to personal reasons. They stated that their busy schedule pulled them apart and they didn’t have time for each other. Eventually, they called quits. Nevertheless, they still remain one of the favorite couples of the fans and friends to each other.
