What's happened
Tiger Woods' ex-girlfriend seeks to nullify NDA she signed with Woods in 2017
Why it matters
The lawsuit is significant as it involves allegations of an abrupt breakup after six years together and the use of an NDA to silence Herman. The case also highlights the limitations of NDAs in sexual harassment and assault cases under the Speak Out Act.
What the papers say
The sources are consistent in reporting the lawsuit filed by Herman seeking to nullify the NDA she signed with Woods. They also agree on the use of the Speak Out Act to argue that the NDA is "invalid and unenforceable". However, some sources provide additional details on the couple's relationship and living arrangements.
How we got here
The sources do not provide any background on the couple's relationship or the events leading up to the lawsuit.
