Golfer Tiger Woods is being treated for sex addiction at a clinic in Mississippi. The report said Woods is at Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services in Hattiesburg, Miss., according to Benoit Denizet-Lewis, a recovering sex addict, who has a source with knowledge of the golfer's treatment. Officials at the clinic would not confirm Woods' arrival, the report said.

Benoit Denizet-Lewis, a recovering sex addict, said a source with knowledge of the golfer's treatment has confirmed Woods is at Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services in Hattiesburg, Miss.

Among Woods' first lessons, Denizet-Lewis said, will be that the oft-questioned addiction to sex is very real.

"We mock or it we say it's not a real addiction," said the journalist, who regularly contributes to the New York Times magazine. "But it's very much the real deal."

The world's No. 1 golfer will not have an easy time of it as he tries to conquer the demons that led him to repeatedly cheat on his stunning wife with multiple women, Denizet-Lewis said. "He's not going to be allowed to go out and golf in the morning," said Denizet-Lewis, author of "America Anonymous: Eight Addicts in Search of a Life," and his new book, "American Voyeur."

"He'll do like everyone else - get up early, eat the same food and go through the same emotions. ... It's a really intense experience," he said.

A cocktail waitress from Los Angeles, Jaimee Grubbs has claimed that she and Tiger Woods had a 31-month affair, and also said she has pictures and many “racy” SMS’s to prove it.

Grubbs is best known as the girlfriend of Shawn Southern, one of the oafish contestants on VH1’s shows, “Tool Academy.”

Grubbs says she was just 21 when she first hooked up with Tiger Woods in April 2007.

Grubbs also said they had sex about 20 times and that Tiger Woods frequently complained that “his life is overwhelming.”

Grubbs, 24, said Woods told her to keep quiet before the National Enquirer broke the story about Uchitel.

“Hey, it’s Tiger,” Woods reportedly said in a Nov. 24 voice mail. “I need you to do me a huge favor.”

Golf star Tiger Woods has apologised to his family, amid continuing speculation about his private life following a car crash last week. Woods, engulfed in media speculation over his private life after a car accident in the middle of the night, apologized on Wednesday for "transgressions" while stating that he had "not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves".

"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart," he said in a statement, without elaborating further.

"I have not been true to my values and the behaviour my family deserves."

Woods was found bleeding and semi-conscious after his car hit a tree and fire hydrant outside his Florida home.

He was found guilty of careless driving and fined $164 (£98).

The golfer denied rumours that physical violence played any role in the incident, saying they were "utterly false and malicious".

The time of the accident and Woods' refusal to meet with police to answer questions about it triggered a storm of media speculation, during which some outlets reported that he had extra-marital relationships with at least two women.

One of the world's most recognizable figures, Woods has lucrative endorsement deals with companies such as Nike and AT&T.

"I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone," Woods said in his statement.

Tiger Woods “friend” Joanna told to Britain’s Daily Mail that “Elin is exactly what Tiger needs to get stability in his life. She is mature for her age, humble, and has both feet on the ground.”

Woods’ wife Elin Nordegren, who reportedly lashed the golfer, is being called a stable, humble person and a perfect wife for a high-profile professional athlete.

In the mean time, Rachel Uchitel, director of VIP services for Pink Elephant has been in the news these days for her alleged relation with golfer Tiger Woods.

Rachel however has denied the matter strongly and was even ready to go for a polygraph test to prove it.

The lady is said to be a party animal and like to swing in different arms. She has worked at many places like Trendy Tao in Las Vegas and New York, Marquee and the Stanton Social in Manhattan.

She also has worked at the Meatpacking District club Griffin, but due to the less payment she had a clash with owner and then left the job.

Rachel Uchitel, the woman at the center of an alleged affair with golf great Tiger Woods has come out swinging in her own defense.

She told the New York Post, "There was no evidence. It's just their word against mine, and Tiger's. My statement is, I work in clubs and I am a businesswoman. I do not have sex with celebrities and I have not had an affair with Tiger Woods."

Uchitel first made headlines after the Sept. 11 attacks when she learned her fiancé Andy O'Grady died in the South Tower.

Uchitel told CBS News, "When I think of Andy I no longer cry. I smile and I laugh. I'm at that point now. I can go on everyday knowing that somebody like him chose me to love."

Uchitel eventually moved to Las Vegas and began her club career.

Lewis, of BlackBook magazine, said, "Rachel is one of the premier VIP service people in the industry. She brings big bucks to big clubs."

Uchitel has been seen with David Boreanaz, the married star of the Fox network drama "Bones." However, both Boreanaz and Uchitel have adamantly denied any romantic relationship.

Uchitel says the Enquirer is out to destroy her reputation.

Uchitel told the New York Post, "I knew they were going to slant it that I was this home wrecker, this club girl who was jetting round with Tiger Woods."

Uchitel says her reputation is now tainted and it will destroy any chance she has at love, adding she can't imagine what it must be like for Tiger Wood's wife to read these lies.

Tiger Woods and his wife, Elin, are “thrilled” to welcome the newest addition to their family – son Charlie Axel Woods.

Little Charlie now joins sister Sam, who was born in 2007.

A statement released on Woods’ website says that everyone is healthy and happy, and that the family will “introduce Charlie…at the appropriate time.”

The couple's first child, Sam Alexis, was born in July 2007.

Woods and his wife Elin, a former Swedish model, met in 2001. They were introduced during The Open Championship in 2001 by Swedish golfer Jesper Parnevik, who had employed her as an au pair.

Woods is currently the world’s #1 golfer and is arguably the best to have ever played the game. He has more career major wins, including 14 major golf championships, than any other active golfer.
