Lindsey Vonn doesn't appear to harbor any ill will toward ex-boyfriend Tiger Woods. In fact, she heaped praise on his skiing skills.
The skier attended the TIME 100 Gala in New York City on Tuesday night and was asked to reminisce about her best celebrity encounter on the slopes.
"I haven't skied with very many celebrities," Vonn told TMZ Sports. "Tiger Woods was a pretty good skier though."
Vonn also shared that Woods wasn't worried about getting hurt because "he's pretty athletic."
It appears the breakup between Woods and Vonn hasn't led to any venom being spewed by either of the two. In fact, it's big of Vonn to be able to heap praise on someone who is no longer an integral part of her life.
After his marriage to Elin Nordegren fell apart amid the golfer's rampant infidelity, Woods dated Vonn from March 2013 to May 2015. Their relationship reportedly ended over the skier's fears that Woods' sordid past behavior of not having the ability to be loyal to one woman was creeping up again.
Despite her qualms about Woods' cheating ways, Vonn obviously harbors no hostility toward the golfer. Vonn has even taken some of the blame for the relationship not working out in the past, claiming that her first marriage and subsequent divorce played a role in the end of their time together.
"Thomas [Vonn, ex-husband] was really my first boyfriend, so I didn't have a lot of dating experience," she told the New York Times in November. "So jumping into a relationship right away after getting a divorce was probably not the smartest move on my part."
Woods has had a history with many different women and a recent report revealed that he learned how to pick up girls under the tutelage of two other all-time greats at their sports -- NBA Hall of Famer Michael Jordan and future MLB Hall of Famer Derek Jeter.
Vonn and Woods have moved on, but at least they can still praise one another once in a while.
