...Enquirer's report is false and says she has met Woods only on two brief occasions. Nevertheless, the maelstrom of attention surrounding the clean-cut Woods' accident has turned Uchitel into a full-blown media star - at least for the moment.

Normal is a relative term. Houses inside Isleworth's 600 acres, 45 miles southwest of Orlando, Fla., cost between $2 million and $8 million. Aside from Woods, perhaps the wealthiest and most famous golfer in history, homeowners have included sports legends like NBA superstar Shaquille O'Neill, movie stars like Wesley Snipes and tycoons like Planet Hollywood creator Robert Earl. The development is ranked the world's No. 1 luxury golf community, and the Mediterranean-style country club is a massive 89,000 square feet. Isleworth has its own private security force with marked patrol cars and fully staffed guard...
...Woods is projecting that decidedly exclusive mind-set as he insists on stonewalling Florida law-enforcement investigators looking into the circumstances of his bizarre, 2:30 a.m. car crash on Nov. 27, when his Cadillac SUV struck a fire hydrant in front of his $2.4 million Isleworth mansion and then plowed into a neighbor's tree.

...Woods incident is the second time in two months that Isleworth's well-heeled serenity has been shaken. In late September, millionaire Florida developer Bob Ward was charged with shooting his wife to death at their $5 million Isleworth home. (He has pleaded not guilty and is facing trial.) It was the first homicide the gated community has experienced since it was started in the 1980s by golf icon Arnold Palmer, who fell in love with the area's rolling landscape and chain of lakes. (He created an 18-hole golf course there that is consistently ranked...
