Tiger Woods gets new blonde girlfriend

After his blonde wife Elin Nordegren left him following exposure of his serial infidelities, Tiger Woods is reportedly trying out a replacement blonde, in the same way some golfers try out replacement clubs, say reports here.

The world's richest athlete till his fall from grace was spotted out on the golf course in his gated Florida community taking a young, fair-haired stunner who was not his wife for a test drive, says the New York Post quoting a celebrity website.

Woods' comely course partner was a 'look-alike' for his sexy Swedish wife Elin Nordegren, says the Post.

"Tiger was on the golf course the other day, hitting balls. He was with a very pretty blonde who looked a lot like Elin. She was sitting in the golf cart while he was playing,'' the tabloid quoted the website as saying.

"They were talking and laughing and obviously having a good time. Tiger has been out frequently... he doesn't want to stay home alone anymore."

The golfer and his wife have not had any contact since the failure of their apparent attempt to patch things up, says the report.

Woods' double life came to light in November when he crashed his car outside his Florida home ostensibly after being hit by his wife, leading to revelations of his serial infidelities.

Even as one after another 19 women claimed sexual relations with the golfer and his marriage crumbled, the golfer went into rehabilitation from sexual addiction. He came out in February to hold a press conference to make a tearful admission of his infidelities.

The golfer took part in The Players Championship earlier this month but withdrew after suffering injury.

Though the couple have not filed for divorce, his wife lives separately with their two kids.
