Tiger Woods is a name synonymous to the sport of golf. That’s how powerful his aura has been in the game. The 82 times PGA Tour winner has set more records than shattered them. His game has become the standard and an inspiration for golfers to follow.

But unlike his strong persona on the field, his private life has always been a roller-coaster ride. From his split from his ex-wife Elin Nordegren to his $30 million lawsuit with his ex girlfriend Erica Herman, the world is always trying to take a deeper dive into Tiger’s personal life. And now his strained relationship with his half siblings has become the talk of the town!

Woods’ half sister makes strong remarks against him

Tiger Woods happens to have a half-sister, Royce Renee Woods. Born in 1961, she is 14 years older than him. When Woods was at Stanford, she lived in California. Woods used to visit her home to meet her because they lived so close to each other. This eventually developed into a bond between them. 

Royce used to prepare Woods’ meals and do his laundry to help him out, for which she received a house from the golf legend as a gift of appreciation. The connection, however, quickly deteriorated following the death of their father, Earl Woods.

None of the siblings have been able to get in touch with Woods since Earl’s funeral. The golf GOAT cut off ties with his half siblings, and it’s been four years since Woods has connected with his siblings.

This left a sour taste in Royce’s heart. In a 2010 book named ‘His Father’s Son’, Royce told the author Tom Callahan, “I would live in a shack, literally a shack, if I could have my relationship with my brother back.”

Not just Royce, but Woods’ half brothers also share the same feelings for him.

Earl Woods Jr. alleges Tiger Woods of estrangement

Woods also has two half brothers, Kevin Dale Woods and Cheyenne Woods’ father, Earl Jr. Kevin was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2009. His condition was 60 to 70 percent worse, according to Earl Jr., which led him to a life in a wheelchair. 

The golfing legend is apparently not in the mood for any interaction, according to Earl Jr., who claimed they tried to approach the 15 times major champion for assistance but their messages never made it to Woods. ”I leave messages. I leave updates on Kevin, but for whatever reason I don’t get a response. … Kevin loves Tiger. A call from Tiger would really pump Kevin up. When he doesn’t call, it just makes him feel worse,” Earl Woods Jr. said.

Tiger has always been a wonderful father to his kids and a wonderful son to his parents, but it is undeniable that his relationship with his half-siblings requires more time and love to mend.
