James filed legal documents Thursday in Florida in the US, asking a judge to determine the paternity of her son, reports contactmusic.com.
She insists Woods has never taken a paternity test to prove he's the father of her son and she was keen to force her alleged ex-lover to submit to DNA testing.
However, James' mother, who currently has the custody of the boy, claims a DNA test was performed in 2002 and it was proved the golfer was not the father.
