Golf legend Tiger Woods traveled alone when he lost control of his car on Feb. 23, 2021. He is recovering after surgeries on his leg, foot, and ankle. Law enforcement is investigating the accident. Many celebrities sent prayers to the 45-year-old after hearing the news, including Will Smith‘s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. However, many fans want to know what Will Smith’s wife was doing with Tiger Woods the day before his accident?

Tiger Woods’ ex-wife, kids, and girlfriend

Golf pro Tiger Woods was married to Elin Nordegren from Oct. 5, 2004, to 2010. The former Swedish model and legendary golf player purchased a $39-million estate in Jupiter Island, Florida, in 2006. They also began building a 10,000-square-foot-home the same year. After the couple divorced in 2010, Woods moved into the estate.

Woods and ex-wife Nordegren have two children together — Sam Alexis Woods and Charlie Axel Woods. Woods’ girlfriend of four years, Erica Herman, gets along well with his children and ex-wife. The 44-year-old Florida native met the golfer at his restaurant, The Woods, which she still manages. 

Tiger Woods and Will Smith’s wife

Many celebrities and public figures sent their thoughts and prayers to Woods after hearing of his car accident on social media. However, one comment, from Will Smith’s wife, confused fans. 

“Prayers up for the GOAT @TigerWoods who was in an accident this morning,” Jada Pinkett Smith tweeted. “Was just with him yesterday. Don’t take not even a MOMENT for granted! I know you’re good because your Tiger within is a beast!!!”

Many fans commented below Pinkett Smith’s tweet that they were worried about an “entanglement.” The actor and talk show host revealed in 2020 that she had an affair with August Alsina, with her husband Will Smith’s permission. Fans were worried something was going on with Woods and Pinkett Smith.

Why was Woods with Jada Pinkett Smith the day before his car accident?

There is a very innocent reason that Tiger Woods and Smith’s wife were together the day before his crash. She was taking private golf lessons with the GOAT.

“Guess who I had the most awesome golf day with yesterdayyyyyy???” the celebrity tweeted with pictures. “Yes! The magnificent @TigerWoods!!!! Yes … dreams come true. I can’t wait for you to see my golf journey with Tiger. Stay tuned!”
