The ongoing saga of Tiger Woods’ split with former partner, Erica Herman, took another twist on Friday evening, with it being reported that Herman has filed court documents that allege she was forced to sign an NDA about their relationship or lose her job.
First reported by Sports Illustrated (opens in new tab), it was revealed that Herman wanted to be released from the NDA she had signed, with her attorney, Benjamin Hobas, writing that: “On Mr. Woods’s own portrayal of events, he imposed an NDA on her as a condition to keep her job when she began having a sexual relationship with him. A boss imposing different work conditions on his employee because of their sexual relationship is sexual harassment.”

Along with the above, there were also additional details provided in the filing, with Hobas stating: “The scheme involved convincing Ms Herman to pack for a weekend excursion to the Bahamas. She and Mr Woods often traveled on short notice for quick getaways, and she was told this would be another such trip. So, she took a minimum of items, expecting to return home in a few days.”
