Pleas from the world's number one golfer to be left alone after confessing earlier this week to "personal sins" were ignored as Britain's tabloid press got in on the act and a raft of new allegations surfaced.
The weekly newspaper alleged that Mindy Lawton, 33, was the first of his known affairs but that she was dumped by the golf star in early 2007 when he began seeing 24-year-old Los Angeles cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs.
Britain's Sunday Mirror reported that Woods had also had a fling with 26-year-old model Jamie Jungers in a Las Vegas hotel, but the source for the tabloid's claim was the woman's former fiance.
A US tabloid, The New York Daily News, linked Woods to a sixth woman, Cori Rist, who was quoted as saying she had: "No comment... Not at this time."
Woods, 33, apologised Wednesday for "transgressions" in his family life as a magazine posted what it said was damning evidence of an extra-marital affair between him and Grubbs.
Another alleged mistress Kalika Moquin, manager at a Las Vegas night club, told celebrity magazine Us Weekly on Thursday that rumors of an affair between her and Woods were "completely untrue."
The first woman linked to Woods, Rachel Uchitel, has also denied an affair but widespread tabloid reports say she is seeking a multi-million-dollar payout to stop her from revealing a horde of damaging emails and messages.
