RTPROFamily Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Tiger Woods Seriously Injured in Car Crash in Florida Friday, November 27, 2009 Print ShareThis Golf great Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident in Florida early Friday morning, the Florida Highway Patrol said. Woods, 33, is in the hospital in very serious condition after a single-car crash at 2:25 a.m. in which he hit a fire hydrant and then a tree, according to the FHP. The crash is under investigation and charges are pending, but the crash was not alcohol-related, the highway patrol said in its accident report. It wasn't known if he was wearing a seatbelt. Woods pulled out of his driveway in the Isleworth community when he struck the hydrant. He then plowed into the tree on his neighbor's property. He was taken to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, Fla. Woods was apparently traveling under 33 mph because the Cadillac Escalade's airbags didn't inflate, the FHP said. The golf champion was gearing up for his fifth Chevron World Challenge title. The $5.75 million tournament is scheduled for Dec. 1-6. "It should be an exciting week for the fans, and I'm looking forward to competing," Woods said in a Nov. 25 article about the event on his Web site.

camoman1 Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 I read the story and it seems like he was near his house when it happened....maybe hit the wrong pedal or something??? Police said alcohol didnt appear to be involved. I would like to think someone as intelligent as him wouldnt drink and drive.. It looks like he is going to be just fine according to yahoo.

elkoholic Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Fool. Another, overpaid celebrity fool. Let the stories and rumors begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBow Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Let's see: 2:30 in the morning. Going nowhere in particular. Racked up the family wheels (nye on in front of the abode). It would customarily lead one to believe that it was as a result of a problem with one (or both) of two things: 1. Booze and / or 2. Woman They say they ruled out "booze", so let's see, what's that leave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camoman1 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 What I dont understand is why Tiger can get away with not talking to the authorities about what happened....I keep reading how the police were asked to come back later because he is 'sleeping'. If it were me or any of us that the police wanted to talk to about an accident and someone told them we couldnt because we are 'sleeping'....I dont see them saying, 'oh, ok, we will come back later'.

hoosierhunter Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 I hope we never find out what happened because honestly it's none of our business....The dang media needs to chill out. Dude had a fender bender that knocked him out. Big deal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimT Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Rumor here is he was coming home from a night with his mistriss and his wife saw no humor in it. Beat him and his car down with a golf club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kat Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Well Jim, he's calling his wife a hero....perhaps his mistress was a stalker and he came home for help HeHeHe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 i guess i'll believe whatever comes from the horses mouth. so far, all we're listening to is the other end..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointing_dogs_rule Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 just a thought If the average person (like me or you) were involved in an accident like this..... do you think that the police would have taken a blood sample for blood alcohol??? None was taken (as reported in the news)... just another example that if you are a celebrity you get special treatment. Just my thoughts. Hope all works out for him. good luck to all the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBow Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Domestic disputes are always tragic for those concerned.....if that is in fact the situation here. But on a lighter side, you always have to look at what makes you smile: Like if someone was to say, "Mrs. Tiger Woods has been recommended for entry into the PGA, as she is reported to have recently beaten the world's best PGA golfer!", would that crack a smile? Now that there's funny! Yu jus' got'ta laugh at that! The joke that is, not the reality of things! TBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie234 Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 seems really odd as to how this happened?? Maybe a deer ran behind him when he was backing out of his driveway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 I hope we never find out what happened because honestly it's none of our business....The dang media needs to chill out. Dude had a fender bender that knocked him out. Big deal... I agree, his life, we don't need to know what happened. Seems the media just needs some gossip to run with. Sad deal.
