Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, has been thrust into the spotlight following a viral video that appears to show a romantic moment between him and Kristin Cabot, the company’s Chief People Officer. Filmed during a recent Coldplay concert, the clip circulated widely on social media Thursday, igniting speculation about a possible undisclosed relationship between the two. The incident has drawn comparisons to high-profile sex scandals that have rocked the sports world – where personal missteps overshadow professional achievements.

From Tiger Woods’ infamous infidelity unraveling his public image to Tony Parker’s alleged affair with a teammate’s wife, such scandals have long shaken fans’ faith in once-revered figures. Here are some of the most high-profile scandals that rocked the world of sports.

Tiger Woods

The golf icon’s fall from grace began in 2009 when a car crash outside his home unraveled a web of extramarital affairs. Initially, it appeared to be a bizarre car accident – Woods had crashed his SUV outside his Florida home, and reports suggested his wife had smashed the window with a golf club to rescue him. But the story quickly unraveled. The truth was far more personal as Woods’ wife had discovered explicit text messages between him and another woman, confirming infidelity. And it didn’t stop there – over the following weeks, a total of 12 women came forward claiming they had affairs with the golf superstar during his marriage.

In December 2009, amid mounting pressure and scrutiny, Woods announced an indefinite leave from golf – a shocking move, especially as it came during his competitive prime. What followed was a dramatic fall from grace. Woods divorced, lost custody of his children, and watched his clean-cut image as golf’s golden boy collapse overnight. Tiger’s story remains one of the most stunning rises and falls in sports history.
