Tiger Woods: Mistress Collector?

Tiger Woods now has four more alleged mistresses surfacing from silence, all linked to the golf pro. One is a porn star.

Tiger Woods is either the unfair target of a group of opportunistic women, or he truly does just get around a lot.

The seventh and latest woman in the Woods “sex scandal” is actress Holly Sampson, a 36-year-old veteran of 85 movies, most of them soft or hard-core pornography. Nobody can verify whether Woods has seen her work in such celluloid classics as OMG, Stop Tickling Me or Diary of a Horny Housewife, so it’s uncertain how he met Sampson if he ever has. She may simply be another in a handful of opportunists who are claiming false affairs. Or she may have been linked to the golf pro through no doing of her own.

Sampson aside, here is the current list of Tiger Woods’ alleged mistresses:

• Jaimee Grubbs – a 24-year-old Californian who first clawed for stardom by auditioning for Playboy, and even had breast augmentation surgery to increase the odds. She didn’t make it into the magazine, despite impressive breast implants, though her chances may be better now.
• Mindy Lawton – A waitress from Orlando, Florida. The UK’s Daily Mail reports that Lawton met Woods in summer 2006 while waiting on him at Perkins, a diner close to Woods’ home where she worked. Her sister Lynn told the Daily Mail that their affair became semi-regular, with Mindy visiting the Woods residence every two or three weeks while wife Elin Nordegren was away.
• Rachel Uchitel – A 34-year-old nightclub promoter from New York. She has fully denied any sexual involvement with Woods, although she has been tied to a string of wealthy men, some celebrities. Notably, her first public exposure was during coverage of the September 11 attacks. She was seen in a panicked search for her fiancé, Andy O’Grady, who disappeared after a plane struck the second Twin Tower.
• Jamie Jungers – a 26-year-old model, rumored to have flinged with Woods in a Las Vegas hotel, according to Britain’s Sunday Mirror, which cited the model’s ex-fiancé as its source.
• Cori Rist – a 31-year-old linked to Woods by the New York Daily News. The tabloid says she met Woods at a club called Butter in 2008. She has declined comment.
• Kalika Moquin – a Las Vegas night club manager rumored to have slept with Woods. Like some of the other women, she denies having done anything, telling US Weekly that the rumors are “completely untrue.”
• Woods released a statement after his November 29 car crash – the incident that unleashed all this speculation of infidelities – insisting he wanted to keep the situation a private matter.

“Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible,” he said, adding later: “I appreciate all the concern and well wishes that we have received. But, I would also ask for some understanding that my family and I deserve some privacy, no matter how intrusive some people can be.”

Tiger Woods may deserve privacy, but that’s about the last thing he can expect.
