In a lawsuit, Tiger Woods’ ex-girlfriend, Erica Herman requests that a Florida judge revoke the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that she signed with him.
Lawyers for Erica Herman, who started dating Mr. Woods in 2017, point to a recent law that restricts the use of NDAs in cases involving sexual assault and harassment.
There are no specific allegations of harassment or assault in Ms. Herman’s lawsuit.

She claims in a different lawsuit that she is owed about $30 million (£25 million) and that Mr. Woods locked her out of the house they shared.
Upon being contacted by BBC News on Wednesday for comment, Mr. Woods’ 47-year-old representative Mark Steinberg did not respond right away.
In Martin County, Florida, close to where the couple lives, the civil lawsuit contesting the NDA was filed on Monday.
According to the document, Ms. Herman’s contract with Mr. Woods is “invalid and unenforceable” as a result of the Speak Out Act, which President Joe Biden signed into law in December 2022 and restricts the enforceability of NDAs in situations involving sexual assault or harassment.
