'Like I was his slave': Williams rips Woods in new book

Tiger Woods' ex-caddie Steve Williams has painted a detailed and unflattering portrait of his former boss in their final months as a team, saying that he at times felt like Woods' "slave."

In an excerpt from his new book, "Out of the Rough," posted on the New Zealand website stuff.co.nz, Williams describes Woods' unusual behavior immediately before his 2009 sex scandal, and then goes on to express his indignation with the media, Tiger's management team, and finally Woods himself as the scandal unfolded.

Williams says he was first alerted to a media story involving Woods' relationship with nightclub manager Rachel Uchitel while he and Woods were at the Australian Masters in Novemeber of that year, as Woods was exhibiting uncharacteristic and "strange" behavior, appearing to party all night and almost showing up late to the golf course.
