Tiger Woods confirms relationship with Vanessa Trump
Golfer Tiger Woods has announced he is dating Vanessa Trump, the former daughter-in-law of US President Donald Trump.Vanessa was previously married to Donald Trump Jr for 13 years, with whom the 47-year-old has five children. The pair divorced in 2018.On Sunday, Woods, 49, posted pictures of Vanessa and himself on social media saying: "Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together.""At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts." It is unclear what prompted the public announcement, but rumours of their relationship had been reported in gossip magazines in recent weeks.
Woods, who has won 18 World Golf championships, is known for being guarded about his personal life after exposure of his marital infidelities and sex scandals damaged his public standing in the 2000s and affected his playing career.He admitted himself into a sex addiction rehab clinic, and went through an acrimonious split from his first wife Elin Nordegren months later after six years of marriage. The couple have two children together.US media outlets report that Tiger Woods' children attend the same school as Vanessa Trump's. She has five children with Donald Trump Jr. One of them, 17-year-old Kai, is set to play golf at the University of Michigan in 2026.As the former wife of Donald Trump's eldest son, Vanessa had been a regular attendee at official events involving Trump's extended family during his first term in office.
Woods, the former world number one, is also known to have played golf with President Trump on several occasions, including last month. Trump loves golf and owns more than a dozen courses.In February, Woods attended a meeting with Trump and Professional Golfers' Association (PGA) heads at the White House about the future of the sport's tournaments and current division with the Saudi Arabia- LIV league. Woods wore his Presidential Medal of Freedom, which was bestowed on him by Trump in 2019 during the president's first term.
Woods has previously announced relationships with World Cup champion ski racer Lindsey Vonn and Erica Herman, his former restaurant manager. That relationship ended badly - Herman filed law suits against Woods and his trust in 2023, which she later withdrew.

'Overwhelmed' Wassell relishing return to Scotland squad
Emma Wassell says the gallows humour of the Scotland dressing room is keeping a smile on her face during what she describes as an "overwhelming" return to the international major surgery to remove a tumour that was found in her chest last September, the 30-year-old lock is now targeting August's World Cup in England after being included in the initial 38-woman training she readjusts to the demands of international rugby, the former Loughborough Lightning star admits she's enjoying some lively locker-room banter."They keep me very, very humble shall I say," Wassell said."I get a lot of grief" Any time the tumour's brought up everyone's like; 'oh, she had a tumour? Who knew?', we joke about it a lot. "There's a lot of banter around and any time I don't get my way, I try to say; 'guys, I had a tumour', and they're like 'shut up!', so it's pretty light-hearted."The fact she can now laugh about it all shows not just how far she's come physically, but also mentally. Not that the reintroduction to international-level training has been easy."Something I've found quite overwhelming - given I've trained for three or four months myself – is to now be put back in this environment where all the girls are pushing each other and there's a level of pressure around you. "It's been a little bit overwhelming but in the best way possible. "Her aim now is making the final World Cup squad for a tournament she thinks could be a game-changer for Scottish rugby."It's the closest I'll definitely get to a home World Cup and I just think it could be huge for women's rugby in general," she added."For Scotland, it will really push us on a bit more in terms of growing the game."

Northern Ireland talking points ahead of Iceland friendly
Here, the PA news agency looks at the key talking points ahead of the game. Final dress rehearsal Ahead of Iceland tomorrow, the press get an update from the boss and Isaac Price 🎙️ #GAWA — Northern Ireland (@NorthernIreland) June 9, 2025 O'Neill said at the start of the year he was happy Northern Ireland were drawn in a four-nation World Cup qualifying group as no competitive games before September gave him more time to prepare a young squad. But that time is now largely up with this the last run out before Northern Ireland travel to Luxembourg and then Germany for their opening Group A fixtures in September. Following two difficult away trips in the last two games, O'Neill will be looking for a confidence-boosting win before the campaign begins.

Hazard has returned home following the injury, with 20-year-old Stephen McMullan called in as cover.

But Iceland travel to Belfast riding high on the back of an impressive 3-1 win over Scotland at Hampden Park, with Gunnlaugsson's aggressive pressing style delivering encouraging early results.
