One of the biggest factors linking Woods, 49, and Trump, 47, is their children’s dedication to golf. Woods’ son, Charlie, 16, and Trump’s daughter, Kai, 17, are both rising stars in the sport, bringing their parents into the same circles.
“Their kids are going places in golf and are both very disciplined about the sport. That’s something Tiger and Vanessa have in common,” an insider shared with People Magazine.
Another source noted that Trump has a history of being drawn to successful, high-profile partners but prefers to stay out of the spotlight herself.
“Vanessa has always been comfortable with well-known men or those with big careers, but she isn’t someone who seeks attention,” the source explained.
While their relationship has sparked interest, both Woods and Trump remain focused on their families and personal commitments. A third insider noted that the similarities between the two continue.
Though neither Woods nor Trump have publicly commented on their romance, PEOPLE confirmed on March 13 that they had been quietly dating for several months. The Daily Mail was the first to report the news.
As for Woods, he shares two children-Charlie and 17-year-old Sam Alexis-with ex-wife Elin Nordegren, whom he divorced in 2010.
