How will Erica Herman’s $30 million lawsuit affect Tiger Woods? A look at the golfer’s current net worth
Tiger Woods' ex-girlfriend Erica Herman filed a lawsuit against the golfer for tricking her out of the Florida mansion while she was on a short vacation. She sued the 15-time major champion, claiming that she had a vocal agreement with him to allow her to stay in their house for 11 years.
In a separate filing, she demanded that the court nullify an NDA signed by her at the start of their relationship in 2017. Herman wants to share the details of her relationship with the public and is asking the court to free her from the contract as it is not enforceable under the federal Dispute Speak Out Act.
Their lawyers are battling in court to win the case. Tiger Woods claimed in his statement that Erica herself left his house and took her things out.
If Woods loses the case, he will pay Herman around $30 million, which unsurprisingly won't affect him much.
Tiger Woods is the first golfer whose net worth counts in the billions. His reported net worth is around $1.1 billion, and $30 million just seems to be a drop in the ocean of his wealth.
Tiger Woods tried to keep his personal life away from the media after the infamous cheating scandal in 2010. His divorce from his ex-wife Elin Nordegren cost him $750 million.
A look into Tiger Woods' wealthy lifestyle
Woods is one of the richest athletes in the world. His net worth is around $1.1 billion. He owns several properties in the country and has invested in numerous businesses.
He earns around $50 million from the game and around $60 million from endorsements per year. Woods also makes money from investments. He recently invested in a golf league company called TMRW Sports alongside his best friend Rory McIlroy. Woods also owns a golf course design company, TGR Design.
Tiger Woods lives in a luxurious mansion in Jupiter, Florida. The house is worth around £41 million and has all-state-of-the-art properties. It has a theater, a basement games room, an oxygen therapy room, a garage, and many other facilities.
What is Erica Herman's net worth?
Erika Herman, Tiger Woods' ex-girlfriend, is a former restaurant manager. She used to work for Woods' Jupiter-based restaurant. Her estimated net worth is around $3 million.
She has not shared many details about her relationship with Tiger Woods yet, but if her words are proven to be true, the golf pro will be in danger. It will affect his public image as he was previously slammed by the public for his cheating scandal.
It is important to note that Herman has not directly filed a case against Woods, rather she sued the trust managed by the golfer.
Over the years, the two have kept their relationship very private. She was hardly spotted with Woods at any non-golf events.
However, she appeared in three Instagram posts shared by Tiger Woods and was seen cheering for him from the stands during his matches. Woods and Herman reportedly split ways a few months back.
