Donald Trump Happy 'fantastic Guy' Tiger Woods, Vanessa Trump Found Love Again

Donald Trump said Monday he hopes Tiger Woods and his former daughter-in-law will be happy together in their relationship, describing the golf superstar as 'a fantastic guy.'

Woods - renowned for guarding his private life over the years - last week confirmed tabloid rumours that he was dating Vanessa Trump , who split from Donald Trump Jr. during his father's first term in the Oval Office.

The US president told reporters in Washington on Monday he was delighted that she had found love again.

'Tiger actually called me a few months ago, and we have a very special, very good relationship with Tiger,' he said.

'I played golf with him a couple of times over the last month, and he's a fantastic guy and a fantastic athlete, and he told me about it, and I said 'Tiger, that's good,'' Trump continued.
