Tiger Woods has Donald Trump’s endorsement.
A source tells Page Six that word around Mar-A-Lago is that the president is a fan of ex-daughter-in-law Vanessa Trump’s new relationship the golfer.
“[President] Trump knows about him dating Vanessa and is said to approve,” the insider says.
Page Six reported on Thursday that the golf legend and prez’s former daughter-in-law are an item.
It’s unclear how the pair met, but they both live in Florida and Vanessa’s daughter, Kai Trump, is an avid golfer. She has competed in championships and often plays with her grandfather.
A Trumpworld insider tells us: “Trump and Tiger are tight, and Tiger got the medal of freedom from him in 2019.”
The source adds, “Tiger speaks privately about liking Trump, and what he’s done to promote golf. Tiger was just at the White House during a Black History Month event. He wore his medal to the event.”
The source also tells us, “Insiders at Mar-A-Lago say that Trump has asked Tiger to play golf with him and Kai at his golf club in Florida.”
Reps for Trump and Woods did not immediately get back to us.
Last month, Donald, 78, and Woods hosted at a reception for Black History Month in the East Room of the White House, which the athlete called an “honor.”
Woods also was at the White House last month to join PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan and player director Adam Scott at a meeting with the president about the rift between the PGA and Saudi-funded LIV Golf.
Back in 2019, the “Apprentice” honcho spoke with Woods following a sensational comeback at the Masters at Augusta National — and awarded him a Presidential Medal of Freedom.
The medal is one of the nation’s highest civilian honors.
A source previously told Page Six of Woods, 49, and Vanessa, 47, “They have a lot in common. They’ve both gotten used to public scrutiny. They both know how to keep their private life private. They’re both parents.”
The source added: “They’re a good match; they’re level-headed, they like to avoid drama, they share a lot of the same values.”
Kai, 17, reportedly also goes to the same school as Woods’ golfer son Charlie, 16, and daughter Sam, 17, which may be how the new lovebirds first crossed paths.
Vanessa and President Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., called it quits in 2018, while Woods infamously split from Elin Nordegren in 2010.
Don Jr. and Vanessa also share Donald III, Tristan, Spencer and Chloe.
The eldest of the president’s children is now dating Bettina Anderson after ending his engagement to Kimberly Guilfoyle.
