Tiger Woods is refuting his ex's claims in court.

Tiger Woods is currently in the midst of a few issues involving his ex-girlfriend Erica Herman. Firstly, we reported on how she was trying to have her NDA with Tiger revoked. Overall, Herman believes the NDA is invalid due to the Speak Out Act. This is an act that invalidates NDAs in instances of alleged abuse. Moreover, Herman launched a $30 million lawsuit against Woods. Within this lawsuit, Herman claims that Tiger had kicked her out of his house, despite a verbal agreement stating that she could live at his mansion for five years post-breakup.

In Herman's lawsuit, she claimed that Woods' people took her to the airport, claiming she was going on vacation. Subsequently, they told her that she was kicked out of the house and wasn't allowed back in. Allegedly, they had changed the locks in an attempt to get her out of there. These were some heavy allegations that certainly painted the golfing legend in a bad light. However, he and his legal team are now clapping back.

According to TMZ, court documents from Woods claim that a verbal agreement never existed between the two. "During their relationship, Mr. Woods invited Ms. Herman to live with him as his guest in the Residence. Mr. Woods never negotiated an oral tenancy agreement with Ms. Herman," the statement read. "Nor was there ever a written tenancy agreement between Mr. Woods or the Trust, on the one hand, and Ms. Herman, on the other hand. Mr. Woods never transferred to Ms. Herman any ownership interest in or rights of possession to the Residence."

Additionally, his lawyers are saying that Woods gave Herman a large sum of money. This money was so that Herman could go out and get herself a house. Either way, it is clear that this is a he-said-she-said situation right now. It is a developing story, so be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for updates.
