ORLANDO, FLA.(AP) —Authorities say Tiger Woods has been seriously injured in a car wreck in Florida.
The Florida Highway Patrol says the PGA star 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.
The highway patrol says the crash is still under investigation, and charges are pending. However, the highway patrol said the crash was not alcohol-related.

looks like he is alright according to cnn. this seems to be sketchy...
he has been released w/ only facial lacerations. the asian in him must have come out while he was backing out of his driveway.

How could he have been seriously hurt by pulling out of his driveway?
3 AM on Thanksgiving running into a tree but wait no alcohol was involved.

According to ESPNEWS the accident wasn't really that serious. He just had cuts on his face that bled a lot

Don't believe alcohol wasn't a factor. Backed out of a drive way, hit a fire hydrant, over corrects, hits a tree. All at 3AM. Dude was drunk.

Was he going fast while he was backing out or something? I don't see how he can get "serious" injuries from this. I'd expect the car to be more damaged than him..

Two things:
1. It says "after pulling out of his driveway"...not "backing out". In fact, the Orlando Sentinel has changed the wording 3 times already...every report I've heard since says he hit them while driving in his neighborhood. In that case, its very possible he was doing 25-30
2. I'm gonna start you an arms length away from a steering wheel and slam your body/face into it at 25-30mph...sound painful? If you take an NFL running back going full speed and an NFL linebacker going full speed colliding...without pads...their subsequent impact is probably about the same. Add in that hitting a tree can mean shattered glass and you have facial cuts and potential for worse

his airbag didn't go off, so he was going less than 33 miles an hour.
i find it hard to believe alcohol wasn't involved. unless he was high on meth.

Yeah, I'm aware it's deployed through a computer system. I'm no expert but, insofar as my knowledge allows, these systems are pretty reliable now. Particularly with the legal aspects of a manufacturer's potential liability for the failure of such a system.
Still, I think you are right in that we can't discount airbag failure actually having taken place. It can still happen.

yeah, but lucky for him he gets a free pass for most things.
he throws a club in the gallery, it pretty much goes unnoticed. if somebody like to or carmelo or somebody did that shit, they'd get torn apart in the media.
but everybody's afraid of holding tiger accountable. it's almost like they're scared if they say anything negative that they'll lose access to one of the most recognizable faces on the planet.

to add to that, if it comes out that alcohol was involved, or if it were some other drug, i'm very curious to see how quickly the media handles it.
although, it's still very possible that he just happened to drop his cell phone or something and went to pick it up and lost control. it could very well be something extremely innocent.
i just have a feeling that either way, the media will take the same approach.

this whole thing was ridiculous. completely blown out of the water. it was a minor accident that the media made out to be some huge car wreck.
and the "pending charges" is most likely a seat belt ticket violation. they said he wasn't wearing his seat belt. he wasn't under any drugs/alcohol, just screwed up, ran off the road, hit a tree and went to the hospital to get checked out and stitched up.
big deal.

haha, wow, that needs to be put in context....as in, she smashed the window to get him out of the car and to safety...not "you cheated on me, i want you to die" golf club smashing
I'm guessing she broke the window out BEFORE he even left. A little fight between them kind of answers everything. Gives us a reason why he left at that time and why he was driving like that without being under the influence.

actually..even the NY Daily News and TMZ...who are going the tabloid route obviously...said it was after the accident
The one-time Swedish model grabbed a golf club, smashed out a rear window in the SUV and helped Woods out of the wreck, said Windemere Police Chief Daniel Saylor (http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Daniel+Saylor)
Thats from this article...which is pretty blatant in the angle it takes
http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more_sports/2009/11/27/2009-11-27_tiger_crash.html

Hmm...why did his wife smash open a rear window to elp him out of an SUV? Couldn't she have, oh I don't know, OPENED THE DOOR? The chances of all four doors becoming disabled after a minor car crash don't seem very likely. I'm very interested to see how this story unfolds in the near future.

I am sorry, but this story reeks of bad cover up. There is absolutely no way that he disabled all 4 doors in ANY cadillac at 25-30 mph. I know everyone finds it hard to believe that good old Tiger was involved in a domestic squabble, but I think it is probably pretty likely under these circumstances.

I think he got into an argument with his wife and decided he was angry and crash his car on purpose. PR and damage control is all over this situation to "protect" his image. I know people who have gotte gotten pissed off stormed out of the house and driven off contemplating crashing their car into a tree. out of anger thats what think happened since alcohol wasn't a "factor."
oh and we know so well that he has anger issues...from incidents on the course

How in any way does it make sense to purposely crash his car? For a guy who has done everything to hide his private side...why would he do something that would obviously bring huge media attention, especially in the wake of that tabloid story. The legit news networks jumped on this story so they could, in the wake of whatever actually happened, mention that he was having an affair. They just needed an in
Tyler Vagyler
11/29/09, 05:51 PM
I don't think his "out bursts" on the course has anything to do with this. 90% of people that play golf get pissed when they hit a bad shot. This guy is human, he is allowed to get mad at himself for hitting a bad shot. But it doesn't mean he has anger problems and that he is a loose cannon.
If him and his wife did get in an argument, who cares? They're a couple, thats what couples do. Stop trying to make this a big deal when it really isn't. it was a minor car crash. Nothing more.

Most cars automatically lock the doors when you go over 5mph. If she didn't have the keys on her - and a club was closer (like in the garage - or it's 3 in the morning and she's an attractive lady bringing protection as she goes outside to check on a noise she heard) ... and he was drifting out of consciousness (per reports) and couldn't open the doors. How was she going to just "OPEN THE DOOR!?"

The Florida Highway Patrol is seeking a search warrant for hospital records that would document the treatment Tiger Woods (http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/players/profile?playerId=462) received after an auto accident early Friday morning, TMZ.com has reported, citing unnamed sources.
The Florida state police, according to the Web site's report, want to determine if the injuries Woods sustained resembled those from an auto accident or domestic violence.

If there is domestic violence involved, the state has every right to pursue it. Usually in domestic violence situations, the abused will not come forth and the whole thing will be hidden until it gets out of hand.

Cops aren't allowed to seek a search warrant now? If it is unwarranted or illegal, they won't be given the warrant. Domestic violence cases are super tricky. I am the last person to defend cops, but DV cases get covered up all the time, and the fact that the podunk police that showed up initially did not do anything at all makes the whole scenario even more suspicious. It is pretty much the job of FHP to make sure there is NOT domestic violence going on in the home, not to try and ruin Tiger Woods, but to protect both he and his wife.

but if the two parties involved claim there wasn't domestic violence involved, why pursue it? so they can determine something and say, 'hey, we determined she hit you' and then it be followed up by 'ok, i don't wanna press charges.'
there is no police report of domestic violence. they were on the scene. neither party claimed it then. why go further? if it's been denied, clearly no charges are going to get pressed. as far as record states, this is a minor traffic accident investigation.
the person behind it took responsibility and accepted blame for the accident. so why investigate further?

Not to be a dick, but you don't know much about domestic violence if you think that just because two people say nothing happened means nothing happened. I defend this morons, they lie all the time. Both parties hide the fights because they are either controlling or don't want to deal with the consequences of turning the abuser in, or are scared for their life.
I think a good police officer would have left the case open and done a little more investigating based on the circumstances. The time of day and the broken back window would be enough to indicates something - anything - was awry in the situation. It should have been investigated immediately, and the media should have been kept out of the loop while the investigation happened. Honestly, they border on having a valid reason to search the premises without a warrant under the facts, but could have also very easily have obtained a warrant quickly to do a run through. Now it is going to be a continuous media circus, and the investigation will probably never get anywhere.

i never said nothing happened. i said there was nothing there that should lead the police to investigate further.
i fully understand domestic violence. but in order for it to be pursued, charges have to be pressed. my only point was that if neither party screamed domestic violence, what would cause the cops to dig deeper?
they showed up at the scene of a minor car accident. that's what they dealt with. i think it's ridiculous that you think they should have done more.
and what right would they have to search the premises without a warrant? it was a minor traffic accident. how the fuck does that give them any reason, let alone right to search the premises. the cops did their job. they assessed the accident and determined whether or not alcohol or drugs were involved. i seriously don't understand how you can think they had the right to do anything else.

So the case is finally closed. He got a $164 dollar fine for careless driving. I hope the media can accept this.
I just understand how people can trust a magazine like the one that "broke" the story of this "affair." It is a tabloid magazine that has the craziest stories in it weekly.
i like how the cops finally decided that the crash was tiger's fault....like it was the other car's fault.

"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.
Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week, my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. The stories in particular that physical violence played any role in the car accident were utterly false and malicious. Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect.
But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don't share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.
Whatever regrets I have about letting my family down have been shared with and felt by us alone. I have given this a lot of reflection and thought and I believe that there is a point at which I must stick to that principle even though it's difficult.
I will strive to be a better person and the husband and father that my family deserves. For all of those who have supported me over the years, I offer my profound apology."

He shouldn't have had to come clean about putting his balls on some other chick's fairway. It's only prolonging a story that needed to die.
he should marry that other chick

It's not a sports story. Not one bit of the story has anything to do with Tiger Woods' golfing, or golf in general. It's just a car crash news story.

A story about tiger woods is a sports story. Sure, this story is dead. But it definitely started as a sports story.
Thats like saying an athlete dying isnt a sports story unless they die on the field.

Anyone else think the coverage has been a bit racist? A rich and famous black man cheats on his wife, let's make it the story of the year.

I dont see how its been racist at all. The media jumps on every adultery story they can back up. Especially when it happens to be one of the most famous people on the planet. I havent seen color be an issue at any point in the overcoverage.

It isn't. The only thing loosely related to sports about that is that that's what they did for a career. My dad teachers tennis - if he dies, that isn't a sports story.

why do you care so much?
if you don't think its a sports story....great. but he is one of the most famous athletes in the world. so it was posted in a sports forum.
get over it.

so stupid for any sponsors to dump him right now. once he's back playing golf and winning majors, he'll be just as bankable as he was a month ago.
i have to say, this is probably unoriginal or whatever, but i have serious, serious disrespect for tiger woods now. the guy can really play golf, but man is he a huge cunt.
some girls talking about how they had sex with tiger woods?

People have this reaction only because he was so successful at hiding his private life, and thus came out of nowhere. Did he potentially kill a guy (Ray Lewis), did he beat women multiple times (James Harrison), has he killed someone driving drunk or had multiple horrendous DUIs (many, many people)? Nope...and yet because he was able to control his image so well before, this is impacting him more than it is all those people before him who did far worse things.
He did what hundreds of other athletes and celebrities and regular people have done (and are doing right now)...and only because people held him so high on the pedestal are they blown away by this. Dude's away from home 8 months out of the year...and has literally unlimited resources...stuff like this is gonna happen

Michael wilbon wrote a pretty great article a few weeks ago where he went all the way back to babe ruth. And from that time on he tried to pinpoint who was among the most famous athletes at any given time. Like mantle, ali, lewis, magic, jordan and so on. And one simarity among all of them was that they were at one point proven to be adulterous or were at least swirled with speculation about it. Tiger isnt the first. He just adds himself to the list.
Its so easy to sit back and call him an asshole and judge him from where were at. But its been proven throughout time that when you become that famous, temptation will win out 99% of the time. Were not in the rare 1% whoever get to that point, so i find it hard to be mightier than thou and judge their life that we cant even begin to imagine.
Chris rock said in one of his specials, "man is only as loyal as his options." while its a joke, its makes a world of sense.
Most of us in here will never even come close to sleeping with a woman as hot as elin or some of the other woman. Let alone have women like that throwing themselves at us everywhere we go.
While i dont condone adultery at all, i find it hard to judge somebody in the position tiger is in. Temptation is a bitch and weve all given into to some extent in our lives.
I just dont understand how this is news when its a story that goes on every day.
Tiger will bounce back from this and within a year most people wont even think about any of this.

Its just another case of a child star gone crazy. Been playing golf since he was 3/4, it's all he's known so it hasn't surprised me really. Once his dad passed away I think he's lost love of the game. The break will do him good, he'll come back in a year or two, win 5 majors in a row and retire.

yeah, i can understand that, but that doesn't take away from what he did. the dude's got a wife and kid. his wife, by the way, is super hot. the man shouldn't stay married with a kid and be banging other chicks the way he did for years and years and give off this fucking superhero family man image. tiger was way up there on the list of good-guy awesome sports players and this is something that you can't reconcile with that. he's not expected to do things like this, which makes it even worse.
