Tiger Woods taken to hospital in 'serious' condition after car accident

Professional golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident outside his Isleworth home early this morning.

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.

Yikes! Hope he is OK.

Holy ****. Sounds like he was drunk, how could it not be alcohol related?

They say alcohol was not a factor. He doesn't really drink alcohol though anyway, according to his bio and some interviews.

Wonder charges could be pending then, and why he was driving so poorly.

[craigdbfan]

CNN is reporting he has facial lacerations. They don't know if his conditions is serious or if his injuries are serious which are different.

[Excel]

ABC says he was released.

A serious facial laceration... can't imagine it being much worse than this...

Tiger Woods was in a minor car accident and treated and released to his home. He is in good condition.

This is coming from Woods publicist.

Good to hear.

[enterthemadness]

Wonder what was going on in the car to cause the accident.

And okay, it's a minor accident now? I believe it when I see pics...

[craigdbfan]

Well this is coming from his publicist so I'd say its pretty reliable...

[StorminNorman]

I am calling it, this accident is connected to the tabloid headlines that Tiger Woods is cheating on his wife. He was probably leaving his house trying to escape a less-than-happy Mrs. Woods in a less-than-calm state of mind. Wouldn't surprise me if the facial cuts are connected.

[terry78]

Haha, cheating on Elin Nordegren? If so, that would prove the case that dudes will just cheat for the sake of it, not because their chick is unappealing.

The hospital also said that Tiger had minor injuries and was released in good condition.

Happy to hear he was released from the hospital already

Cheating on a hot wife? Car accident? Karma is a *****.

Tiger Woods: Injuries Caused by Wife, Not SUV

Posted Nov 28th 2009 6:08AM by TMZ Staff

Tiger Woods did not suffer facial lacerations from a car accident. They were inflicted by his wife, Elin Nordegren -- according to a conversation Woods had Friday after the accident.

Tiger has yet to be formally interviewed by the Florida Highway Patrol -- that should happen this afternoon. But we're told Tiger had a conversation Friday -- with a non-law enforcement type -- detailing what went down before his Escalade hit a fire hydrant.

We're told he said his wife had confronted him about reports that he was seeing another woman. The argument got heated and, according to our source, she scratched his face up. We're told it was then Woods beat a hasty retreat for his SUV -- but according to our source, Woods says his wife followed behind with a golf club. As Tiger drove away, she struck the vehicle several times with the club.

We're told Woods became "distracted," thought the vehicle was stopped, and looked to see what had happened. At that point the SUV hit the fire hydrant and then hit a tree.

We're also told Woods had said during the conversation Friday he had been taking prescription pain medication for an injury, which could explain why he seemed somewhat out of it at the scene.

Or maybe Tiger uses P pills for recreational purposes as its popular with many celebrities/athletes or anyone who just has a whole lot of money.

Seems odd that he was a bit "high" from them and he was having an argument with his wife (possibly could have been on P pills too) who then got physical.

Not so great pics of the SUV

You know, sometimes just because the woman is extremely hot looking....it doesn't mean they are that way in bed. It's like whenTerry Hatcher's husband divorced her....everyone was talking about hot she was....turns out she hadn't had sex with him in over 5 years.

[enterthemadness]

If Woods really did cheat on his wife, I honestly don't feel sorry for what has happened to him. As cold as that is. Karma is a *****. Make sure you're divorce is 100%.

Now if he hasn't been cheating and it's just that, rumors, then yea, I feel sorry...

she's alright, but he can get any chick he wants, they're a lot hotter women out there plus he's got the bod and the money lol

[FaT_tONle]

Guess I was a bit naive to believe it as well. I mean a fire hydrant and a tree can't possibly trap you in your SUV can it? Wife probably went crazy. **** happens. Divorces happen. At least they will live another day.

A high percentage of men admit their wife is better looking than their girlfriend. They usually do it for emotional reasons, not physical.
