[Smells Like News] Rachel Uchitel Speaks, Denies Tiger Woods Affair

According to reports, Elin Nordegren attacked husband Tiger Woods' car with a golf club early Friday morning, a rumor that would lead one to believe the golfer was having an extramarital affair.

But this isn't the case says Rachel Uchitel, the woman at the heart of the gossip.

As director of VIP services for Pink Elephant, a company that specializes in the NYC club scene, Uchitel admits she's met Woods on a couple of occasions. But she's never seen him outside work and never slept with him, she told The New York Post.

"This is nothing to do with me. We have never had an affair, and the claims we did are completely false... I am really upset about it because I am being portrayed as a homewrecker, when it simply isn’t true.”

Uchitel added that The National Enquirer paid a friend $25,000 to make up the story about her and Tiger.

She claims she offered to take a polygraph for the newspaper to prove her side, but "they refused it. They told me it was too late and the story was running anyway."

In October, Rachel was also accused of sleeping with married actor David Boreanaz. She referenced that in the interview:

“Other things have happened in my past that would prevent me from doing anything like this. I have traveled with men that are quietly more important than Tiger Woods and it is incredibly difficult to get to their hotel room,” she said, referring to the report that she snuck into Tiger's hotel room in Australia earlier this year.

Uchitel doesn't sound like a woman trying to sleep around and make a name for herself, does she?

As someone best known for saving par when facing a difficult lie, we'll see if Tiger can now save his marriage when faced with a series of lies.
