Dave Portnoy is rolling his eyes.
The Barstool Sports founder slammed Tiger Woods’ request for privacy after the professional golfer confirmed his new relationship with Vanessa Trump on social media.
“Tiger asking for privacy for dating Don Jr ex wife is an all time ridiculous request,” he wrote via X on Sunday, referencing Donald Trump Jr.
Portnoy, 48, has been a longtime hater of Woods, 49, whom he once called a “fraud.”
“I think I’m the only guy in the world who’s rooting against Tiger. I just never liked him; I thought he was kind of a fraud,” the internet personality told Fox Business about the 82-time PGA Tour winner’s return to the Masters.
Portnoy went on to call out Woods’ infamous cheating scandal, saying, “He’s one of the greatest golfers, but he was all goody-two-shoes in the image, and then he’s running around with all these blondes everywhere, his wife’s crashing him in a car. I don’t care. I’m no goody-two-shoes. Just be who you are all the time, and be consistent.”
Woods took to X earlier Sunday to debut his romance with Vanessa, 47, less than two weeks after Page Six reported they have been quietly dating for months.
“Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side!” he captioned two loved-up photos.
“We look forward to our journey through life together,” he added. “At this time we would appreciate privacy to all those close to our hearts.”
Earlier this month, a source told Page Six that the pair’s romance was getting serious.
“They have a lot in common,” the insider said. “They’ve both gotten used to public scrutiny. They both know how to keep their private life private. They’re both parents.
“They’re a good match; they’re level-headed, they like to avoid drama, they share a lot of the same values,” they explained, adding that Woods has “always tried to date girls who just weren’t right for him.”
A second source later told us that Don Jr., 47, is “fully supportive” of his ex dating the athlete.
“[Don] also knows that his father [President Trump] respects Tiger and how well they get along, so he’s fully supportive,” the insider said. “He has obviously dated other people since their split, so as long as Tiger treats Vanessa and their kids with respect, he’s good with it.”
Vanessa and Don Jr. were married from 2005 to 2018 and share five kids: Kai, 17, Donald III, 16, Tristan, 13, and Spencer, 12, and Chloe, 10.
Woods, on the other hand, has two children with his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren. They divorced in 2010 after he cheated on her.
