Rachel Uchitel, the New York and Hamptons party girl, who charmed golfer Tiger Woods with Ambien sex during a five-month fling and reportedly received a multi-million dollar pay off, has fled her Manhattan apartment for sunny Florida.
Uchitel is reportedly staying at a posh Palm Beach home, and may be attempting to contact Woods, who also has remained in Florida during his sex scandal.
Woods mistresses — as many as 14 in all, depending on their claims — continue to pursue him. Woods reportedly paid them tens of thousands of dollars during his flings, both to take care of their needs and keep them quiet.

Uchitel, however, seems to be the most dogged. She reportedly claims Tiger will set her up in her own business once the scandal blows over. Uchitel, who has worked at times as a VIP party hostess, wants to open her own club.
“I am his soul mate and we have a special connection,” she reportedly has told friends.
She has bragged about having wild sex with the golfer while high on Ambien, a prescription drug that is said to enhance orgasms. Woods’ wife told police in Florida the golfer had a prescription.
Uchitel reportedly also has saved more than 300 text-messages, emails and voice mails. She also claims to have recorded telephone calls with Tiger and wife, Elin Nordegren, who is preparing a divorce.
Uchitel was the first woman outed as a Woods mistress by the National Enquirer. The revelation, plus Woods’ early morning car crash the day after Thanksgiving, after fighting with his wife over Uchitel, unleashed a firestorm of tabloid headlines.
She is reported to be laying low in a luxe $2 million home in ritzy Palm Beach, according to the New York Daily News.
Uchitel was seen driving away from the house with another woman Sunday (Dec. 20) evening, but said nothing,

Tiger reportedly set sail Saturday (Dec. 19) on his $20 million yacht with a handful of friends, bound for the Bahamas, People magazine reported Ironically, the boat is named “Privacy,” something the top golfer has had very little of over the past two weeks.
“Tiger’s boat Privacy has been docked at Old Port Cove in North Palm Beach for more than a week,” a source told the magazine. “On Saturday morning, after stocking up on provisions, the boat left town.”
Apparently he sailed without Uchitel on board.
