Mindy Lawton is the alleged 5th mistress (or is it 6th? I’m losing count) to come forward with claims of an affair with Tiger Woods.

Mindy, 34, a waitress at a Perkins restaurant in Orlando frequented by Woods and his wife Elin, began her affair with Tiger in the summer of 2006.

According to Mindy’s sister, Lynn Lawton, Mindy was dazzled by Tiger, so when he called the restaurant and asked her to meet him at the Blue Martini – a favorite haunt of Tiger’s, she was excited and nervous.

Mindy and her sister met Tiger in the VIP room of the club, where he was sitting with a group of Orlando and Los Angeles basketball players. Tiger and Mindy left the club separately, and she followed him to his home in a gated development, where she was waved in by the guard. She told her sister the next day that she had sex with him in his house and “he was extremely good.”

Mindy claims she and Tiger had sex all over the house, but never in the bedroom. According to the former waitress, the golfer had a penchant for the color red, and their sex was passionate and urgent.

Their affair, during which time Tiger’s wife Elin became pregnant, continued for a year, when Tiger suddenly stopped calling.

In an investigation by the Daily Mail, it has been discovered that a tabloid had been following Tiger and Mindy, and had photos of the two of them having sex in a church parking lot.

When Tiger’s management team learned of the incriminating pictures, they went to work and struck a deal with the tabloid, getting the story buried. In return for the tabloid’s silence, Tiger appeared on the August 2007 cover of a sister publication, Men’s Fitness, giving a rare interview where he gave tips on diet, exercise and weightlifting.

As far as Mindy knew, Tiger just dropped out of her life. Had Tiger’s affair with Rachel Uchitel not been exposed, it is likely his trysts with Mindy would have never seen the light of day. It is unclear what has happened to the photos taken in the church parking lot.

Drug use has been alleged by several of the mistresses, with Jaimee Grubbs claiming Tiger used Vicoden – a painkiller he said he took for a knee injury.

Rachel Uchitel told friends Tiger took Ambien – a sleep aid that is said to heighten sexual experiences.

The count of women linked to Tiger seems to be increasing daily, and one leading expert believes he shows all the classic signs of a sex addict.

“If you were snorting cocaine you would start off doing one line and end up doing five grams. The more sex he has the more he will want and the more outlandish he will try to make it,” says David Smallwood, Addictions Manager at north London’s Priory Clinic.

Tiger offered an apology for his transgression following his car crash in the early morning hours the day after Thanksgiving.

As of this writing Tiger Woods is in hiding, and no one on the PGA circuit has seen him, or knows of his whereabouts. There is also a yet unnamed mistress in the wings (we believe it may be Cori Rist), who believes Tiger’s problem is insecurity.

“He has never felt particularly attractive. From the age of four or five, he was destined to be a golfing legend but no one told him how to be a man.”

“He’s not a happy man. When his father died
