Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren Unite for Charlie's FSU Signing Day

Tiger Woods and ex-wife Elin Nordegren stood side by side as son Charlie committed to play golf at Florida State University.

Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren put family first on Friday, showing up together and all smiles as their 17-year-old son Charlie officially signed his commitment to play golf at Florida State University. The rare joint appearance came nearly 17 years after the scandal that ended their marriage — and the two couldn't have looked more united.

Charlie Locks In FSU

The signing ceremony took place at Benjamin High School in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and the whole crew showed up in Seminoles gear. Woods, 50, and Nordegren, 46, flanked their son in the official photo — all three decked out in Florida State merch and wearing genuine grins.

Charlie had already telegraphed this move back in February, posting his verbal commitment on Instagram with a simple, fired-up caption: "Excited to announce my commitment to play golf at Florida State University — go Noles!" Woods jumped into the comments immediately, writing that he was proud of his son entering this new chapter. Now it's official.

This kid is the real deal. He's been sharpening his game alongside a living legend for years, and landing a Division I program like FSU is a serious statement.

The Full Squad Was There

It wasn't just mom and dad. Nordegren's boyfriend, former NFL tight end Jordan Cameron, also attended the ceremony, bringing their three children along — all repping Florida State colors. Woods and Nordegren also share an 18-year-old daughter, Sam.

According to Page Six, this kind of coordinated, low-drama co-parenting appearance has become a pattern for the former couple. They've made it work repeatedly for the kids, and Friday was more of the same.

A Track Record of Showing Up Together

This wasn't a one-off. The exes have reunited publicly several times over the past year to celebrate their children's milestones. Just this past February, they stood together at Charlie's championship ring ceremony after the Benjamin School boys' golf team claimed the 2025 FHSAA Class 1A state title.

Before that, in December 2024, the whole family converged at the PNC Championship in Orlando. Woods and Charlie played 18 holes together — with Sam on the bag as caddie — while Nordegren was courtside cheering. Video from the event caught her hugging Woods and patting him on the back during the celebrations. Easy. Comfortable. All about the kids.

And in early 2024, they'd already reunited at another ring ceremony honoring Charlie's November 2023 state championship win with the Benjamin School squad. That time, they kept photos separate, but the progression toward more natural togetherness has been noticeable.

For a man who's had plenty of his own battles — [from legal troubles]((/article/tiger-woods-set-to-change-dui-plea-in-florida-court-wednesday)) to grinding back from serious injury — watching Woods show up clean and present for these family moments is part of a broader story of personal reinvention.

Woods' Life Off the Course

Woods is currently dating Vanessa Trump, a relationship confirmed in March 2025. Sources described it as heading in a serious direction, with both parties said to share similar values and a preference for staying out of the spotlight.

Meanwhile, his tournament schedule has seen its own complications. Woods has navigated lineup uncertainty during his ongoing physical recovery, making every on-course appearance a headline.

The Bigger Picture

Charlie Woods is no longer just Tiger's kid — he's a Division I recruit with a future of his own. And the fact that two people who went through one of the most publicly painful divorces in sports history can stand together, smiling, for his biggest moments yet?

That's the real win here.
