The Elin Nordegren-Tiger Woods split was huge news three years ago, with over a dozen reported mistresses of Woods' emerging in the press. But now both have moved on -- Woods with skier Lindsey Vonn and Nordegren with billionaire Chris Cline. And according to the New York Post, Nordegren is happy with Woods' new girlfriend.
"[Elin] really likes Lindsey and thinks she is a very good influence on Tiger," sources tell the Post. "[He] seems happy with Lindsey, and she gets on well with their children."
This comes on the heels of a report that Elin "hates" Woods' relationship with Vonn, so do with that what you will.
But either way, don't expect wedding bells to be chiming for Vonn and Woods any time soon. Vonn tells Vogue, "I am definitely not getting married. To anyone."
She is referring to her messy divorce from Thomas Vonn, a fellow professional skier.

Things sure seemed to be looking up for Tiger Woods. He's got a new lady in his life, Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, and he won the Players Championship. Of course, that win didn't come without a boatload of drama and controversy, but he still walked away the victor.
The upswing couldn't last forever, though. Us Weekly is reporting that his ex-wife Elin Nordegren, the one he cheated on with many women, isn't stoked about the new relationship. In fact, a source says Elin "hates Lindsey and everything about this romance."
It doesn't end there, though. The source says Elin is also "angry Tiger even has visitation rights to the kids." If Tiger is worried about his ex-wife, he isn't showing it. "He doesn't care about her," the source says, "He's so egotistical."
Perhaps the "egotistical" Woods has feelings about Elin's relationships. She's been reported to be dating coal magnate Chris Cline,...

No, this isn't a classic Doublemint gum commercial—it's Elin Nordegren and her twin sister, Josefin, coaching soccer from the sidelines. Ex Tiger Woods and his new girlfriend, unobtrusive skier Lindsey Vonn, weren't in sight, but Elin—whose shirt clearly identified her as "coach"—was joined at daughter Sam's soccer game in Jupiter, Fla., yesterday by son Charlie, her sis and little nephew. Picture perfect, don't you think? Off waxing his yacht, perhaps, was Elin's new beau, billionaire Chris Cline, but maybe he'll be able to catch the next match.

Now here's something else Lindsey Vonn can crack jokes about. A yacht owned by the Olympian's new beau, Tiger Woods, is docked awkwardly right next to a luxury liner owned by Chris Cline, the billionaire boyfriend of the golfer's ex-wife, Elin Nordegren. And as it happens, Woods' ironically monikered "Privacy" is 155 feet in length, 9 feet less than Cline's vessel named Mind Games (is he trying to send Tiger a message or something?), which spans 164 feet and even comes with its own two-person submarine. No word on the ships' girth, but both are parked in Palm Beach, Fla., not far from where Tiger's former missus and the coal baron own separate estates in the posh...

The ex-wife of Tiger Woods may be moving on with someone new. According to the New York Post, Elin Nordegren, who divorced Woods in 2010, has been dating coal magnate Chris Cline, worth a reported $1.2 billion. The pair began dating over the holidays, and live in the same North Palm Beach, Fla. community.
