Tiger Woods's girlfriend Erica Herman, 33, reportedly chased the American golf great, who won The Open Championships on Sunday, for 10 years before they made their relationship official last year.

Woods, 42, met Herman when she was a manager at his restaurant, The Woods in Florida. A source told US entertainment website Radar Online that Herman chased Woods "like a puppy" for a decade. "Erica's been chasing Tiger around like a puppy for close to 10 years. I'm not sure if his ex-wife [Elin Nordegren] knew, but I'm not sure how she couldn't know. I can't believe Tiger is out in public with her now," the source said.
