Golf legend Tiger Woods, 50, returned to social media to commemorate his late father, Earl, with a post on Memorial Day. “My father was a Special Forces operator with two tours in Vietnam and 20 years of service,” Woods wrote on X. “To all those like my father, we all say thank you for your sacrifices. Without them we wouldn’t have the greatest country on Earth.” Earl Woods retired as a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army. He died in 2006 at age 74. The memorial post was Woods’ first post online since announcing he was stepping away from the golf world to focus on a “lasting recovery” after being involved in a rollover crash and his subsequent DUI in Florida in March. Earlier this week, Woods returned to Switzerland to reportedly resume his rehab treatment. He had come back to the U.S. this week as his girlfriend, Vanessa Trump, ex-wife of newly remarried Donald Trump Jr., announced she had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
