If you believe everything you read, you believe Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn have something more than a casual friendship going on right now.

First, there was the report by TMZ that Woods sent his private jet to Austria to pick Vonn up (and take her -- where, exactly?) after her skiing accident at the Alpine world championships.

They can discuss knee injury recoveries together!

Then there was this bit in People Magazine about how Woods and Vonn have grown "closer and closer." One of the magazines sources talks about the relationship:

But the source close to Woods tells PEOPLE that Woods, 37, and Vonn, 28, talk and text frequently.

"Tiger really does want a woman who he can have good conversations with," he says. "He wants shared interests and outlooks. He is finding that with [Lindsey]."

I have no idea if all (or any) of this is true, but it does seem like there have been too many rumors and too much smoke for a fire not to have already started.
