Dave James Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Not much in terms of specifics at this point, but the NYT is reporting that Tiger Woods was involved in a single vehicle car accident early this morning. He was leaving his Florida home when he ran over a fire hydrant and a tree while driving his 2009 Cadillac Escalade. No word on whether alcohol was involved as the accident is still under investigation. Hope everything is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 ESPN News says no alcohol involved, and Tiger was admitted, treated, and released in good condition from the hospital. Road rage possibly? Stuck accelerator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejp626 Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 One detail that is classic (since it seems he is basically ok, we can laugh about it) is that his wife used one of his clubs to smash in a window and get him out, so the car must have been pretty damaged. It does sound awfully weird -- probably worth 15 minutes in the Tiger Woods Story when it gets released in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Kart Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 According to what I heard on CBS network radio news this morning, there is much more here than meets the eye. In particular, so it was reported by Arman Ketayen (sp?), what happened sprang from an argument between Woods and his wife about him boinking another woman, that his facial injuries were inflicted on him by his wife before he got into the car, that she was pursuing him down the driveway with that golf club (thus the accident), that her smashing in the back window of the car with the club after the accident might well have been an attempted continuation of her angry assault on Woods rather than an attempt to "free" him, and that Tiger went in and out of consciousness after the accident because, in part, he already had some sort of pain medication in him.

jostber Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 (edited) Wonder then if she picked a club at random, or chose one that was especially good for beating unfaithful husbands? Edited November 28, 2009 by jostber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papsrus Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 (edited) So it turns out Tiger's human after all. Pretty nasty stuff if true, though. Chasing someone with a golf club is basically assault, isn't it? And driving while under the influence of pain killers is ... driving under the influence. I'm sure the authorities will treat them just as they do regular folks who find themselves in these kinds of unfortunate situations. There's a power PR firm in high gear somewhere on this Saturday morning. Edited November 28, 2009 by papsrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papsrus Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Know your rights: Woods is not required by law to speak to the Florida Highway Patrol because it is being investigated as a traffic accident, spokeswoman Sgt. Kim Montes said. Montes said Woods is not required to give a statement, only his driver’s license, insurance and registration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connoisseur series500 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 I know someone who worked in the Mariott chain. She told me that Tiger (pre-marriage) insisted on being served by blondes only. OK, his prerogative, but it does smack of arrogance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulstation1 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Tiger's wife was chasing his cheating ass with the golf club. He was watching her in the rear view mirrow and then crashed his car. That is how it went down. Will she get half of his Green Jackets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
