💔 From Thomas Vonn to Tiger Woods and P.K. Subban: An Olympic Champion’s Relationships
Olympic gold medalist Lindsey Vonn is renowned globally for her dominance on the slopes, yet the Alpine ski racer has commanded equal attention for her personal life, often making headlines for dating fellow elite athletes and high-profile figures. While her ski career is historic, Vonn’s relationships have consistently captured the interest of the public, charting a course that includes a marriage, a celebrated engagement, and several power-couple dynamics.
The First Marriage: Thomas Vonn (2007–2013)
Lindsey Vonn’s first high-profile relationship was with her former fellow U.S. Ski Team athlete, Thomas Vonn. The couple married in 2007, and Thomas served as a coach and mentor during a pivotal part of Lindsey’s career. Their professional and personal partnership saw her achieve early World Cup success and her first Olympic appearances. They divorced in 2013, a separation that marked the beginning of a new chapter for the champion skier, both personally and professionally.
The Golf Star Era: Tiger Woods (2013–2015)
The relationship that arguably brought the most media scrutiny was Vonn’s romance with professional golf legend Tiger Woods. After meeting at a charity event in 2012, Vonn officially announced they were dating on March 15, 2013. The Olympic champion and the pro golfer quickly became one of the most recognized pairs in the sports world, often seen together at major golf tournaments and social engagements.
However, the intensity of their respective careers proved too much for the relationship to sustain. They separated in May 2015, with Vonn citing the difficulty of juggling their demanding schedules. As she explained, “We lead very hectic lives and are both focused on our careers.” This mutual commitment to their sports careers ultimately led to their amicable split.
The NHL Engagement: P.K. Subban (2018–2020)
Following a brief period where Vonn was linked to actor Alexander Ludwig (2016) and former NFL coach Kenan Smith (2016–2017), she began dating NHL star P.K. Subban in 2018. The hockey player and the skier quickly became a fan-favorite couple. Subban proposed in August 2019, and in a famous “non-traditional” move celebrating equality, Vonn later proposed to him as well that December.
The couple was engaged for over a year but announced the end of their relationship in December 2020, citing that they had “slowly grown apart” despite remaining close friends.
The Entrepreneurial Chapter: Diego Osorio
Most recently, Vonn was linked to Mexican actor and tequila entrepreneur Diego Osorio. The relationship began in 2021 and lasted until early 2025. Following the split with Osorio, Vonn has publicly embraced singlehood, focusing her energy on her career endeavors and her dogs, proving that while her dating life captivates the headlines, her commitment to the world of skiing and her own personal growth remains her core focus.
