Tiger Woods has landed amid fresh allegations that threaten to expose his private life after a cocktail waitress stepped forward to claim an affair with the ace golfer.
Jaimee Grubbs, from Los Angeles, said that she has photos and text messages to prove her on-off romance with married Woods.
The 24-year-old told US Weekly magazine that she began seeing the world No 1 in April 2007 and the two had had nearly 20 sexual encounters since then, reports the Telegraph.
It was further claimed that the 33-year-old star dumped Grubbs in November over alleged fear of being caught by Elin Nordegren, his wife of five years with whom he has two children.
The story comes after Woods' recent car smash outside his 1.5 million-pound mansion in Florida.
Woods was said to have had a heated argument with Nordegren over reports of romance with New York socialite Rachel Uchitel seconds before his car ran into a fire hydrant and a tree.
Both Woods and Uchitel have denied the reports of an affair.
Meanwhile, Tiger Woods' wife Elin Nordegren reportedly blasted the cocktail waitress in an angry phone call after learning about her affair with her husband.
The former Swedish model, who has two kids with the 33-year-old ace golfer, allegedly called Jaimee Grubbs from a blocked number.
When 24-year-old Grubbs asked Elin who she was, the 29-year-old purportedly replied: "You know who this is because you're f'''ing my husband," reports the Mirror.
Tiger Woods apologises for 'letting family down'

Two magazines have linked two more women to his private life, Jaimee Grubbs, a Los Angeles cocktail waitress and a Las Vegas nightclub promoter.
And now, Woods has offered a 'profound apology' in a statement on his website.
He said: "I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all my heart...I am dealing with my behaviour and personal failings behind closed doors with my family."
