Golf icon Tiger Woods loved it up with girlfriend Vanessa Trump at his red-themed mega bash Wednesday night to celebrate 30 years of his charitable foundation and milestone 50th birthday.
Exclusive Daily Mail photos reveal the recently-minted couple with rock legend Jon Bon Jovi, who performed an acoustic set before the 300 VIP guests enjoyed a feast that paid homage to the sporting great’s five Masters victories.
Tiger and Donald Trump Jr’s former wife quietly slipped into the main ballroom for the stunning event at exclusive The Breakers Hotel in the billionaire enclave of Palm Beach, Florida.
The 15-times major winner chose a classic dark tuxedo look with a red tie and red pocket square while Vanessa stunned in a slinky black dress and red high heels while carrying a gold clutch bag.
Massive security surrounded the party, with local and state cops flooding hotel corridors. Meanwhile Secret Service agents were warily eyeing anyone passing the ballroom doors – behind which Vanessa’s golf protege daughter Kai also was among the revelers.
Normally guests in the main ballroom at The Breakers would look out directly on to a stunning ocean vista.

But such is the security and privacy surrounding the bash that all the huge windows were blacked out to keep prying eyes away.
Tiger and his new love chatted with the throng of guests enjoying cocktails and canopies amid a background of pop music at around 6.30pm.
They then slipped out to a nearby small reception room to greet 63-year-old Bon Jovi – as revealed in the exclusive Daily Mail photos.
Tiger beamed as he had his picture taken with the rock legend, who has a $43million mansion in the exclusive beach town, also home to President Donald Trump. The couple then headed back to the action.
Just after 7pm, Bon Jovi nipped across the corridor that was guarded by another phalanx of Secret Service agents to head into the ballroom for his acoustic set.

He kicked off with 2007 hit Lost Highway before launching into his classic Livin’ on a Prayer and then wowing the A-list gathering with It’s My Life – to huge applause.
Emotionally, he told his audience: ‘I’ve done a lot of big fund raisers with Tiger, even in people’s homes and we’re really, really happy to be here tonight.
‘I want to thank you very much because it’s been quite a long time since I performed in public…’
He followed this with a jazzy version of You Give Love a Bad name, finishing the set with the words: ’Thank you very much. God bless you my friends and have a good night.’
Tiger’s bash for his TGR Foundation and birthday – which was in December last year – was given the title RED: Celebrating Legacy.
The color element was down to his signature dress code for the final day of a golf tournament when he always wears red, a tradition started by his mother Kultida who believed it empowered him.
All the guests wore some element of red as they tucked into the menu of a mix of items from his five Masters Championship dinners. These included sushi, porterhouse steaks, crab cakes, cheeseburgers, steak and chicken fajitas, stuffed jalapeños, French fries and milkshakes.
The foundation, started by the legend in 1996, is a non-profit dedicated to helping under-privileged young people.
It operates an education program in science, technology, engineering, arts, math plus college readiness and health and well-being.
Tiger and Vanessa, 47, began dating in November 2024 after meeting at events at the $38,595-a-year Benjamin School, where both their children attended.
Normally guests in the main ballroom at The Breakers would look out directly on to a stunning ocean vista. Instead, the huge windows were blacked out to keep prying eyes away.
Vanessa married ex-husband Don Jr in 2005 and the couple split in 2018. They share five children: Kai, Donald III, Tristan, Spencer and Chloe. The divorce was relatively amicable.
Both her ex and President Trump have put their seals of approval on her relationship with Tiger, sources have told the Daily Mail.
In December, the Daily Mail confirmed the couple now spend most of their time at the golfer’s sprawling $80million compound on the exclusive 17-miles long Jupiter Island in Hobe Sound. It is set in one of Florida’s most prestigious communities.
The original 9,000 sq ft mansion on nine acres was torn down to make way for grander 14,000 sq ft and 12,000sq ft modern masterpieces sitting side by side and designed by renowned architect Hugh Newell Jacobsen.

In front of them sit a main pool, a lap pool, a tennis court and three golf greens, two of them guarded by bunkers.
Vanessa is reported to still maintain a more modest house just 20 minutes away.
Woods shares two kids – Sam Alexis and Charlie – with ex-wife Elin Nordegren, whom he married in 2004 and divorced in 2010 after a shocking sex scandal in which he publicly admitted to cheating on her with multiple women. Many of the women came forward with lurid tales of sexual activity.
The golf legend eventually attended in-person treatment for sex addiction. Nordegren filed for divorce and eventually received a settlement that insiders said was more than $100 million.
