It will come from my behavior over time.
We have a lot to discuss.
However, what we say to each other will remain between the two of us."
But Woods' various infidelities weren’t the only issue in his relationship with Nordegren.
Things got weird in 2001 when Woods' dad publicly advised his son not to get married before 30.
The pro-golfer was 25 at the time and met Nordegren that same year.
“The level he’s at, the finite little problems like that would destroy him.”
The golf superstar didn’t listen to his dad, though.
He proposed to Nordegren in 2003, and they married in Barbados the following year.
But we’ve also noticed a few other oddities in this now-defunct romance that everyone ignored at the time.
“There was a big line of single golfers wanting to meet her.
They were gaga over her,” Parenevik said (viaNewsner).
He also toldVanity Fairthat Nordegren claimed to have no interest in Woods, but he continued to pursue her.
“And she was ‘No, no, no.
You’re going to be trouble,'” Rimer recalled.
Nordegren also admitted toPeoplepost-divorce that she was no fan of Woods’ high-profile life during their six-year marriage.
“I wasn’t interested at first, ironically.
I had my opinions about celebrities,” she said.
“The hardest thing was being in the public eye.
I am by nature a pretty shy and private person,” she added.
She’s very practical and not materialistic," an unnamed friend told Daily Mail.
“Elin’s an outdoorsy sort of girl.
She’s happiest playing soccer on the back lawn,” they added.
She made it clear she preferred to use her money to spend time with her loved ones.
Tiger Woods, though?
He reportedly wasn’t feeling the pressure before he tied the knot with Elin Nordegren in 2004.
“He didn’t act like he was going to get married.
He was very relaxed, like this was any other day for him,” a source toldPeople.
“I’m nervous from the very first shot.
I’m nervous throughout the entire day,” he admitted toGolf TVin 2019, decades into his career.
So why wasn’t he more jittery before committing his life to someone else?
The star reportedly complied, and the rest is history (albeit a history full of weird quirks).
