TMZ has learned the identity of the mystery person jogging with Tiger Woods in the infamous first photo -- and it turns out, Woods handpicked the guy several years ago.
The man in the blue shirt is Corey Carroll -- a 23-year-old avid golfer who Tiger plucked from obscurity to mentor several years ago.
Carroll -- who hails from Windermere, Florida, right near Tiger's home -- met the golf legend when he was 17 ... and they've been training partners ever since.
The two didn't just start jogging together for the posed photo -- according to an interview Carroll gave back in 2007, they practice and work out together nearly every day.

All the married men who wanted to party with Tiger Woods' mistress Rachel Uchitel on her birthday are now gonna have to find something else to do that night -- because the shindig has officially been canceled.
According to Rachel's lawyer, Gloria Allred, "The media attention was unexpected and unwelcome and for that reason the planned party at a club will not take place."
Interesting, since the invite has been floating around the Internet for days ... wonder how it leaked?

Tiger Woods is "doing everything he can to save his marriage" -- this according to sources directly connected with Tiger and Elin Nordegren.
Although there are unconfirmed reports that Elin is going full steam ahead with the divorce, Tiger is not giving up. We're told he wants to stay married to Elin and is doing what he can to convince her not to walk.
One of the things we know Tiger is doing ... behind the scenes his people are dealing with the bevy of alleged mistresses, trying to contain what they can. There are, as one source put it, "lots of phone calls."

Tiger Woods pursued Rachel Uchitel after his car crash ... telling her he wanted to be with her -- this according to sources.
We're told in the days following the post-Thanksgiving crash, Tiger Woods repeatedly texted Rachel, telling her he wanted to figure out a way to see her. Mind you ... this is after the National Enquirer ran the story that Tiger and Rachel had an affair.
It's especially shocking, given what we have already reported -- that the night of the crash Tiger's wife, Elin Nordegren, saw her husband texting Rachel, confronted him, took the phone away and even called Rachel.
Rachel allegedly had an affair with Tiger for two months -- an affair she has told people was "intense" and a "real relationship."
She also told people Tiger had pursued her for 4 months prior to the time they got involved and was very "possessive" and "jealous."
And, one of Rachel's friends says Tiger told her that he loved her.

Jaimee Grubbs hasn't been seen since the scandal broke -- but last night the chick who Tiger Woods allegedly stepped out on his wife with stepped out on her own in Los Angeles.
The "Tool Academy" vet hit up Firefly in the Valley last night, and while the place serves food, the only thing she was starving for was attention.
As we previously reported, Grubbs is the woman who played voicemails from Tiger to her co-workers and was confronted by his wife Elin -- but last night, she wasn't talking about either subject.

It's what we've been wondering for days -- and now, we finally have an answer to the golf club mystery.
A law enforcement official tells TMZ Tiger Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, used a wedge to blast out the two windows on his SUV.
There are several types of wedges. We don't know which one Elin chose ... but Tiger typically only carries a lob wedge and a sand wedge.
For all you non-golfers, a wedge is used for short shots -- usually around the green. It's angled with a high loft.
Golfers use wedges to get out of tight spots and unplayable lies. Oh the iron-y.

Us Weekly has just posted a voicemail allegedly left by Tiger Woods for his alleged mistress -- Jaimee Grubbs.
In the call, you hear someone who sounds just like Tiger telling Jaimee to remove her name from her own voicemail, because Tiger's wife Elin "went through my phone and may be calling you."
As we previously reported, Jaimee bragged about her relationship with Tiger to co-workers and even played them this voicemail at work.
