Tiger Woods Babe on the Beach

Rachel Uchitel, the Chelsea club girl who was the first woman to be linked to the golfer, was out and about yesterday, taking a leisurely stroll along the Palm Beach shore.

The revelation that Woods allegedly carried on a years-long relationship with Uchitel reportedly sparked the Thanksgiving-night smashup at his mansion near Orlando.

She became the first in a parade of alleged paramours to surface after the incident, in which Woods, reportedly fleeing his golf-club-swinging wife, crashed his SUV into a tree.


There was no word on whether Uchitel, who has family in Palm Beach, planned to see Woods, who lives about three hours north in Windermere.

Woods' yacht Privacy is docked nearby in North Palm Beach.

Uchitel's lawyer, Gloria Allred, said her client's trip was nothing more than a holiday visit with family.

Woods has made shockingly little effort to conceal his philandering ways -- and that recklessness has wife Elin Nordegren fuming.

Some of Woods' Orlando-based hotties were not shy about telling friends they played a round with Tiger, making the his infidelity the worst-kept secret in town.

"Elin feels that Tiger made a fool of her and that's not something she can forgive," a source close to the wife told RadarOnline.com.

Boris Becker Sympathises With Woods

Tennis great Becker sympathizes with Woods

Posted: December 21, 2009

BERLIN – Tennis great Boris Becker says he sympathizes with Tiger Woods, who is taking an indefinite break from golf after admitting to infidelity.

According to the Bild newspaper, the German said during a taping of the “Beckmann” TV show that will be aired later Monday that he was surprised by the “dimensions and frequency” of Woods’ alleged affairs.


As far as the controversy goes, the 42-year-old Becker says he “experienced the same thing, and can sympathize with him.”

Becker has two sons with his former wife, Barbara, and a daughter from a brief relationship with a London-based model. He married Lilly Kerssenberg this year, and they are now expecting a child.

UK court issues injunction in Woods case

LONDON – A British judge barred journalists in the country from publishing some material about Tiger Woods.

An injunction issued on Thursday even blocks media, including The Associated Press, from revealing the details of the order itself. As a result, media who obey the order cannot tell the public what they have been barred from revealing.

News organizations based outside of the UK ignored the order, however. The celebrity Web site TMZ published a copy of the injunction.

The order was imposed on Thursday by High Court Justice David Eady after it was sought by Schillings, the firm representing Woods in Britain.

London-based media lawyer Nigel Tait said such an injunction would have been unlikely in the United States, where reporting on the private lives of public figures is given less protection.

Britain has no formal privacy law but it is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights, which guarantees the right to respect for privacy and family life. Celebrities have increasingly used this clause to fight media exposes.

They also have sought redress in British laws governing libel, which have traditionally been seen as friendlier to claimants than those in the United States.

Many foreigners have sued the media over articles they would likely have lost in their own countries. Libel laws in the United States, for example, require someone to prove that an article was both false and published maliciously. British law places the burden of proof on the publisher.

Woods has been dogged by questions about his personal life in the fortnight since a car accident outside his home in the middle of the night led to the release of sordid allegations about multiple affairs.

The world’s No. 1 golfer issued a public apology after disclosing his “personal failings” and acknowledged he had “not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves.”

Though he has appealed for privacy, allegations of illicit liaisons by Woods have been regularly appearing in global media.

This has been especially true in Britain, where the tabloid press seized upon the story, offering a daily account of the number of women who have claimed affairs with Woods, often along with the purported details.

“The lawyers are trying to put a lid on these allegations, to contain them before they get to a level that’s perhaps just salacious,” media lawyer Ambi Sitham said. “Levels of privacy still exist.”
