New York, Dec 9 (ANI): A Manhattan sugar daddy helped New York City party girl Cori Rist, the latest in an ever-lengthening line of sexy women linked to Tiger Woods, pay rent.

The hedge fund honcho admits he wired Rist 100,000 dollars because ’she wasn’t able to support herself.’

“She is a friend and that is it,” the New York Daily News quoted the man, who asked not to be identified, as saying.

The honcho admits he dated the 31-year-old siren for a couple of months last winter and insisted their relationship “was more emotional than anything else.”

“I did it for her son as much as anybody because he was having a hard time with her divorce,” he said of the money.

“She was unemployed for a long period of time. She wasn’t able to support herself and I agreed to help her,” he added.

Rist told the sugar daddy she used to work on Wall Street, but a spokeswoman for the Penthouse Executive Club said the only assets Rist risked were those she displayed at the club as a dancer. (ANI)
