Reports indicate that the intimate pictures of the 41-year-old 14-time major champion were stolen from former girlfriend and Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn’s phone.
Shortly after the photos being leaked, Woods and his team are threatening legal action against the website that posted them.

Along with Woods, TMZ reports that his former girlfriend and Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn and other celebrities also had photos posted on the site.
According to TMZ, the photos of Woods and Vonn came from Vonn’s phone, which was hacked. Woods and Vonn were together for almost three years before breaking up in 2015.
