TFD: Joslyn James just wanted the truth to come out about Tiger

Oh boy.

March 19, 2010 at 9:54PM

We will refrain from linking you to the text messages allegedly sent by Tiger Woods to Joslyn James, an actress who appears in certain types of films. But we would be remiss if we didn't give you a piece of the AP story whereby she explains why she released the texts:

Joslyn James, whose real name is Veronica Siwik-Daniels, posted more than 100 messages on her Web site that she says came from Woods and indicate he arranged to have her stay at the same hotel as he did.

Some of the messages show a desire for rough sex. In texts dated Aug. 29, the person she says is Woods says he wants to slap her and that she should beg the next time he sees her.

The messages were released just two days after Woods announced he would end his four-month, self-imposed exile and play at the Masters at Augusta National in Georgia.

A request for comment from a Woods spokesman was not immediately returned.

James denied she was trying to get even with Woods for breaking her heart when he ended their three-year affair and refused to publicly acknowledge it.

"I just wanted the public to know and the truth to be out there for me to have people see what I was being told and not just judge me for being with a married guy," she told The Associated Press.

Just another thing to make the Masters even more spectacularly awkward.
