Tiger Woods, Girlfriend Erica Herman Sued After Allegedly Overserving Employee

Rob GoldbergMay 13, 2019

A lawsuit has been filed againstย Tiger Woods and his girlfriend, Erica Herman, for allegedly over-serving a staffer who later died in a car crash, according to TMZ Sports.

The family ofย Nicholas Immesberger filed the suit inย Palm Beach County, saying the couple were each responsible for the 24-year-old's death.

Immesberger worked atย The Woods, the golfer's restaurantย in Jupiter, Florida,ย where Herman was employed as a general manager. Immesberger's family also said Herman recruited him to work at the restaurant.

According to the lawsuit,ย Immesberger was served alcohol after his shift to the point ofย "severe intoxication" on Dec. 10, 2018. He died later that night in a car crash, with a blood alcohol content ofย .256.

Woods and Herman reportedly knew the bartender personally and, according to the family, knew he had a problem with alcohol.

Although there doesn't appear to be any direct connection between the couple and the night in question, the suit considers themย responsible for allowing their employees to serve someone too much alcohol.
