Woman's claim: I was NOT Tiger Woods' mistress

tiger woods mistressDaphne Czechtowika, hostess for a German-themed restaurant in Racine, Wis., revealed today that she did not have an affair with Tiger Woods -- a claim that set off a rush by book agents for her memoir. If true, the claim would make Czechtowika the only hostess or waitress in America whom Woods did not hit on.

"Tiger came in once for the Tuesday night all-you-can-eat brat special, and I may have seated him a little too close to the oompah band," said Czechtowika, 23, who has worked at the Little Bavaria restaurant for two years. "Or maybe he was preoccupied by the recent birth of one of his children. Or maybe he doesn't have a thing for dirndls."

"Whatever -- we just never hit it off," she added, forming her fingers into the shape of a W. "But I still wish him well."

Publishers eager for a holiday blockbuster are bidding her memoir into the high six-figure range. The story reportedly will detail Czechtowika's rise from a public housing project in Milwaukee, and the inspiration she drew from her family, including an immigrant grandmother.

"While we value Tiger's privacy, this is a wake-up call for all families -- even ones without multi-millionaires and supermodels. We think iher story will have universal appeal for the holidays," said one agent who would did not want to be named.

Ho, ho, ho!

I don't believe it for one second, look at her, Daphne is blond....that is enough right there to set the "Tiger" in motion. Give her a lie detector test, she is covering for him, after 1 of those huge beers, I would be hitting on her...but Tiger, c'mon you do the math!

This story says something -- something awful -- about the current state of the publishing industry. What a disgrace!

Oh come on Gail, laugh a little. This is funny stuff. You have to laugh to blow off stress in todays world.

I appreciate the satire Dave, nice job. It is healthy to take a view, flip it, and enjoy the irony of it.

I'd hire her!! oompah!!

It is hard to believe that he WOULDN'T have a mad, passionate affair with her right there in the beer garden, especially in Racine. Everyone knows that Wisconsin is famous for cheesecake. Such a lovely lass, hope she finds a nice, married superstar to have an affair to remember.

I haven’t read all the comments, so perhaps this has already been remarked upon, however, does it not strike anyone as surprising that Tiger, worth a shitload of money and who is arguably the most recognizable athlete in the world, would drive around in a vehicle that did not have bullet proof glass? (or in this case, 3 iron proof)
