Tiger Woods’ ex-girlfriend, Erica Herman, is, once again, not letting her legal fight against the golf legend die.

After twice getting denied by a Florida judge to consider a pair of post-breakup lawsuits, in which she has accused Woods of sexual harassment, Herman filed an appeal Friday to the Fourth District Court of Appeal in Florida in an attempt to get a non-disclosure agreement lifted, according to USA Today.

In May, Herman filed a request to have the NDA she signed with Woods in 2017 nullified due to a legal clause that provides exceptions if there is evidence of sexual harassment or assault.

But Judge Elizabeth A. Metzger of the Circuit Court in Martin County ruled in favor of Woods in that lawsuit, leading to Herman’s appeal.

Herman’s latest move is part of her continued efforts to bring the two lawsuits into the public eye, though judges have said the case should be decided through private arbitration at each step of the way.

Herman, 39, has previously revealed details of the breakup and is claiming sexual harassment due to the fact Woods was her boss prior to their relationship..

She was hired in 2014 to operate Woods’ Jupiter, Fla., bar and restaurant. 

After the breakup, Herman sued both Woods, 47, and the trust that owns his $54 million Florida mansion, seeking $30 million in damages from the latter, but no decision has been made in this case.

This latest part of the legal drama comes as injuries have kept the 15-time major champion off the golf course. 

Woods missed this weekend’s US Open in Los Angeles and also missed the PGA Championship in May after undergoing ankle surgery in April.

It’ll be the third consecutive major Woods has missed since he withdrew from the Masters on April 9.
