Tiger Woods’ ex-girlfriend Erica Herman has accused the golf star of tricking her into leaving his Florida mansion under the guise of going on a “short vacation” — only to lock her out amid their messy and shocking split, newly unveiled court documents allege.
News of the couple’s split only emerged Thursday when details surrounding their months-long legal battle — which has so far been kept under wraps — surfaced publicly as Herman, 38, sought to toss out a nondisclosure agreement she signed in 2017.
Their legal fight kicked off in October last year when Herman filed a landlord complaint alleging Woods, 47, booted her from his sprawling Jupiter home using “trickery” and then repeatedly refused to let her back in, according to the filings obtained by
The Post.
The court papers state that those working on behalf of Woods’ trust convinced Herman to “pack a suitcase for a short vacation and, when she arrived at the airport, they told her she had been locked out of her residence, in violation of the oral tenancy agreement and in violation of Florida law”.
Herman alleges that Woods paid for a “hotel room and certain expenses for a short period of time” — and “frightened her away from returning” to the property.
Those working for Woods subsequently removed her personal belongings and took $40,000 in cash that belonged to her before making “scurrilous and defamatory allegations about how she obtained the money”, the court documents allege.
