Tiger Woods seriously injured in car crash
Golfer hits fire hydrant, then tree outside his house, highway patrol says

updated 2:45 p.m. ET Nov. 27, 2009
Authorities say Tiger Woods has been seriously injured in a car wreck in Florida.

The Florida Highway Patrol says Woods hit a fire hydrant and a tree as he pulled out of his driveway early Friday in his 2009 Cadillac sport utility vehicle.

Woods was taken to Health Central Hospital. His condition was not immediately known, though the news release said his injuries were serious.

Professional golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident early this morning, the Florida Highway Patrol just reported.

Woods, 33, pulled out of his driveway in the Isleworth community about 2:25 a.m. when he struck a fire hydrant, and then drove into a tree at his neighbor's property, FHP reported.

Woods was transported to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee in serious condition, FHP said. No other information about his condition has been released.

A Health Central hospital employee said at 2:30 p.m. that Woods was not a patient. A hospital operator would not say if Woods had been treated and released.

FHP said the airbags in Woods' Cadillac Escalade did not deploy, which means the vehicle was traveling under 33 mph.

Orange County Fire Rescue received the call for aid at 2:28 a.m. Woods was transported from his Windermere-area neighborhood by the hospital's own ambulance.

FHP did not report the accident until just after 2 p.m. today. The agency said the crash remains under investigation and charges are pending.

Very strange story.
Report CailiniDeas8 November 28, 2009 9:36 AM GMT
Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, "explained to my officers that the doors were locked and she could not gain entry" into the crashed vehicle, so she "used a golf club" to smash a window.

A woman scorned...

"As you all know, I had a single-car accident earlier this week, and sustained some injuries. I have some cuts, bruising and right now I'm pretty sore.
This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again.

This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible.

The only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false.

This incident has been stressful and very difficult for Elin, our family and me. I appreciate all the concern and well wishes that we have received. But, I would also ask for some understanding that my family and I deserve some privacy no matter how intrusive some people can be."

all he done was knock over a fire hydrant and tip a tree - who called the cops ffs

car airbags were still intact which means he was going at no speed at all....

As I said on Friday. Very strange story. Hes probably driven out of his house a thousand times and not gone near the hydrant or tree. Clearly a serious domestic issue given the silence from within.
Hes a strong character and I`d expect him to bounce back, but it will definitely tarnish his public image. The golfing fraternity will turn a blind eye.
Tiger Woods is officially human after all!

A woman was taken by ambulance from Tiger Woods' home in Windermere, FL last night and driven to a hospital, but details about the incident are unclear, according to media reports.

The website TMZ said Orange County Fire officials confirmed a call came in at 2:36 AM from the home on Deacon Circle. The Orlando Sentinel newspapers is also reporting the incident, saying the patient refused to be taken to the hospital.

WKMG TV in Orlando reported someone was transported and a blonde woman in a black Escalade followed an ambulance from Deacon Circle to Health Central hospital -- the same hospital that treated Tiger the night of his accident.

Further, TMZ is reporting that Woods was admitted to Health Central Hospital the day after Thanksgiving as an overdose case. Sources connected with the hospital told TMZ that Woods' chart listed "OD" and that he was having trouble breathing, and that he entered under an alias, William Smith, with his wife, Elin Nordegren by his side.

It follows reports that pill bottles for Ambien and Vicodin were found at Woods' recent crash scene, that lead to the revelations of numerous affairs.

Tiger woods solicitors California lawyers, Lavely & Singer, have released a statement on Tiger Woods behalf citing a joke and a "foolish misunderstanding by Tiger Woods that lead him down a path of adultery."

It is believed that in 1999, several touring pros told Woods on seperate occassions that it was a tradition to bag a different girl for each major won and that if he truly wanted to beat Jack Nicklaus's record of 18 majors, he needed to set the same pace in the bedroom as well.

One anonymous player stated that shortly after his ninth major, the young Woods made a locker room confession that he was "well on pace", stunning his tour companions.

The source went on to say "by that point, we realized the joke had gotten out of hand but none of us had the guts to step forward so decided to let him just keep going."

Revelations have brought the count to fifteen, one more than Tiger's pace of major golf wins. But those following the golfers progress on both fronts have stated that porn star Holly Sampson didn't count because it was at Tiger's stag and several witnesses have stated he was unconscious at the time.

Meanwhile lawyers for twelve of the women announced that they will collectively be releasing a 2010 calender.
