Tiger Woods is mourning the loss of his mother, Kultida Woods, who passed away at the age of 78. In a heartfelt statement, Woods described her as a “force of nature” and his “biggest fan,” acknowledging the unwavering support she provided throughout his career. Kultida, originally from Thailand, was a constant presence in her son’s life, often seen at golf tournaments and major events. She is survived by her grandchildren, Sam and Charlie, who shared a close bond with her. The Woods family has requested privacy as they grieve this significant loss.
Among the many tributes pouring in, former U.S. President Donald Trump expressed his condolences and recognized Kultida’s profound impact on Tiger Woods’ legendary career. Trump and Woods have shared a close relationship over the years, with the golfer receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2019. The passing of Kultida Woods marks a deeply emotional moment for the golf icon, who has frequently credited his mother for shaping his success both on and off the course.
