Tiger Woods, the $8-an-hour diner waitress and the deal that kept their affair out of the news
Daily Mail ^ | 12/5/09 | Sharon Churcher

Posted on 12/05/2009 5:41:58 PM PST by Dr. Scarpetta

Today, Mindy Lawton, 34, knows that she was just one of many mistresses taken by the golfer. Throughout their 14-month affair she thought that what she had with Tiger was special & that they were in love.

She and Tiger met in summer 2006, when Mindy was working as an $8-an-hour manager & waitress at Perkins, a diner only a short drive from Tiger's home.

Tiger & his wife Elin would regularly take breakfast there.

He called her at Perkins & said, "This is Tige," - that's the pet name he always used for himself - "Will you meet me at the Blue Martini?"

'She was very excited but nervous so she asked our next oldest sister, Bobbi, to go with her. She was like, "Oh, I'm going to hang out with Tiger!"'

It is now known that this nightclub & cocktail bar was a favourite haunt of Tiger's. Tiger & Mindy left the club separately.

Mindy drove her sister home then met Tiger on his way to his house. She followed, driving at a discreet distance, & at the gated development was waved in by the guard.

Lynn said: 'Mindy told me the next day, "We went to his house and & sex. He was extremely good."'

Lynn thinks Elin was out of the country that night. She said: 'That was always the pattern. Mindy would drive her old Saturn car & follow Tiger in his Escalade.

According to our investigation, when 'Team Tiger' discovered that a tabloid magazine not only had blurry pictures of him & Mindy in the car park but evidence of the consummation, they went into a panic. Then they went to work.

Moral crimes get punished by moral and social opprobrium. Which is what is happening here.

Its a sad comment on the state of America.

No. The fact that many are still willing to speak out against sleaze such as this is a rather good comment on the state of America.

And the tabloids’ job just keeps getting easier with texts, email, voicemail, etc. Probably some video along the way as well.

Maybe there will be some kind of reality show where all of Tige’s women compete for a payoff of some sort.

If I recall correctly, Tiger has a prescription for that Ambien. He’s a known insomniac (claims he sleeps four hours a night). The talk of pain pills is, from what I understand, back when he had knee surgery.

I’m not defending Tiger here, one of my earlier posts called him a sociopath. I just think it’s ridiculous that people automatically assume he’s using steroids because he looks big on TV. I know dudes in the gym who are way more impressive than him and don’t do gear.

Steroids can also lead to, oh, hypersexuality.

Then maybe he discovered his handlers were wrong, and fell in love with someone more like him.

The only problem is that so far we're counting about 'SIX' someones.

Yea, you want to see a before and after of me back then and now? Because the change is about as big in Tiger as it is in me, and I don’t use drugs. Seriously, if Tiger looks big to you then I hate to see what you look like.

He looks very skinny in the photo where he’s wearing the reddish shirt and tan slacks compared to the later photos.

I think you’re right on the screening (at least I hope you’re right).

That said, since there sometime is a lag between HIV infection and seroconversion (when the virus is discernible by routine testing), I suppose there’s a window there for problems.

Also HIV is not the only STD that is transferrable during birth. The others can be even harder to detect, IIRC.

Thanks for the link!

Actually, quite the opposite. The incredible increase in testosterone in the body from steroids generally results in atrophy in the testes (since the body no longer needs to produce its own test) and an increase in estrogen, as the body attempts to balance all that test. This increase in estrogen is why a lot of guys who use steroids develop gynecomastia (”man boobs”). From what I understand it’s terrible when coming off a cycle, the sex drive generally disappears for a while.

I'd like to see the tabloids expose global warming & the health bill...:)

Well, yes, but we have love with dogs and babies, pretty convincing pic.

I’m not saying there aren’t 12 more babies and 12 more dogs out there..... who knows? He might have some lucrative Purina and Huggies endorsements to consider.

I sense a missing-mom complex: the galaxial pressures of being Tiger probably causes this needing a comforter activity.

Not that I’m excusing his mis-behavior, but the evidence is telling us that Tiger is a REALLY NICE guy.

But my bet is he’ll wind up with the waitress.

Tiger’s a piker compared to pro-basketball players.

And your point is?


The reaction reveals more about those who are shocked, SHOCKED, I tell you, about his behavior than it does about him. The idol of Tiger has been shown to have both clay feet and putter. Equally amazing is that he apparently wasn't smart enough to realize the extent to which his marketability wasn't due to his expertise as a golfer but to public perception of him as a truly nice and decent family guy. He didn't seem to realize that whereas he could lose a tournament here and there and it wouldn't diminish his public appeal, being seen as a smut puppy would turn his gold to rust.
