Report: Tiger Woods Has a New Girlfriend

By Tracey Harrington McCoy Posted Mar 21st 2011 09:23PM

Tiger Woods has a new girlfriend, UsMagazine.com reports. The lucky girl? Alyse Lahti Johnston. The 22-year-old blonde has been seen with the golf pro several times during the last few weeks, including a recent spotting on Woods' 155-foot yacht, Privacy. Sports blog Terez Owens was the first to break the news.

Johnston is no stranger to the sports world or to Woods. She is the daughter of baseball player Jeff Lahti and the stepdaughter of Alastair Johnston, the former vice chairman of IMG, the sports-management firm which helped Woods sign his $60 million deal with Nike in 1996.

The New York Post reports that the two have known each other since she was just 7 years old.

According to her Facebook profile, Johnston is attending Northwood University in Florida, close to Woods' Orlando estate.

The Post reports the 22-year-old was arrested last year near her stepfather's estate for suspicion of DUI. She ended up pleading no contest to reckless driving in December.

Johnston is also reportedly training for the LPGA tour. She previously played volleyball for the University of New Hampshire.

Really? no self esteem? no responsibilities? Willing to sell her soul? All of this because she's white? Give me a break. I say if you can get someone with money and success and have fun and be happy as young as she is, go for it. A white woman may not have the same responsibilities as a black woman her age because we don't go out and have a bunch of illegitimate children and call ourselve's "strong, black, single mother's". Please, anyone can lay on their backs and have kids and live off the system. This girl is young, unattached and having fun. Why make it a race issue, Tiger Woods is an adult and he can date whomever he pleases.

But he isn't a " Black Man " He is Thai and also white.
Just like Obama, he cannot admit that he is white and is
denying his diversity and only uses being black when it
will advantage him in some way or another. Halle Berry
isn't the 1st black woman to win an Oscar...she is the 1st
bi-racial... also 1/2 white.

Everyone keeps talking about how Tiger doesn't like black women. Do black women like Tiger? I mean I'm a sister and I can't recall any friends going, oouuu Tiger is hot. I hear everything from Denzel Washington and Morris Chesnut to Dwight Howard and Kobe Bryant. Never hear any sisters expressing an interest in Tiger.

Well she can't be very smart. I think she needs to find some self esteem

There's always a hot blonde willing to date an infamous celebrity, regardless of what he did. Look at OJ- He was found "liable" for the deaths of two people, and he still had no problems finding young girlfriends!

By Guillermo

But why do the black sports figures and famous rich black men very rarely date or marry a black woman? They seem to prefer the light colored women whether they be Hispanic or mixed in ethnic background. Why? Do you think one will ever marry Oprah or Whoopi?

By saye

Not sure Whoopi is into uh Blackmen,all that tuff...

Has he EVER dated anything besides blondes? Oh yeah..that's right he's caublinasion. This individual has serious issues about his ethnicity. I feel bad for him.

By BlueWho

a new girlfriend? just one? highly unlikely...the best measure of ones future actions, is ones past actions-his actions speak loud and clear...he needs to find someone his own age-he will ruin her life-just as he has Elin & his childrens....poor slob...
