Vonn moves on with Britney ex
OLYMPIC ski champ Lindsey Vonn seems to have quickly moved on from her breakup with Tiger Woods to Britney Spears’ ex, Charlie Ebersol. Vonn, 30, was spotted twice over the weekend at the US Open with writer and producer Ebersol, 32, who is the son of former NBC Sports chief Dick Ebersol.
The couple was seen looking very close on Friday while arriving in a car at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Flushing, Queens. They headed to the Heineken VIP Suite, where they were careful not to be photographed together.
On Sunday, Vonn and Ebersol were back at the Open for the men’s final, again being careful not to be too cozy together in public.
While a rep for Vonn said, “I can tell you with 100percent certainty that they are just friends,” a source who saw the pair together claimed, “When they thought people weren’t looking, Lindsey and Charlie were very close. When they got out of the car, they were hanging on each other and had the spark of a new relationship. But as soon as there were cameras, they would separate so not to be seen together.” Reps for Ebersol didn’t respond to a request for comment.
World Cup ski racer Vonn, who is currently recovering from an ankle injury, is a big tennis fan and a supporter of Roger Federer after they played a promotional tennis match together in the Swiss Alps last year. She is also a good friend of Caroline Wozniacki.
Vonn and Woods split in early May after nearly three years. She wrote on Facebook at the time, “Tiger and I have mutually decided to end our relationship . . . Unfortunately, we both lead incredibly hectic lives that force us to spend a majority of our time apart. I will always admire and respect Tiger. He and his beautiful family will always hold a special place in my heart.”
Woods was spotted with his daughter Sam at the Open last week, sitting in Rafael Nadal’s box.
Ebersol, founder of The Company, signed a deal in March to create scripted shows for Universal Cable Productions. He dated Spears from October of last year until their split in June.
