Tiger Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, changed the story she told the first officer on the scene, according to law enforcement sources.
The Windemere Police Department says Tiger's wife went outside, saw that her husband had struck a fire hydrant and a tree, and then went back inside the house for a golf club to use to try and extricate him from the vehicle. But we've learned Nordegren told a very different story to the Florida Highway Patrol, and it does not involve going back in the house for a club. Our sources will not allow us to be more specific.
And we've learned there was no blood found on the steering wheel of Tiger's SUV -- putting into serious doubt that Tiger sustained his injuries from the crash.
As we first reported, Tiger had a conversation with a friend yesterday, in which he said his wife had confronted him over reports he was involved with another woman ... and that his wife scratched his face up during the argument. Tiger told the friend he then left the house, started driving off and his wife then came out with a golf club, striking the vehicle. Tiger then became distracted and hit the hydrant and then a nearby tree.
We're told cops will interview Tiger and his wife later today.
UPDATE: A neighbor tells TMZ they saw cops show up at Tiger's house this morning -- only to get turned away again. Tiger's wife, Elin, was spotted (below) driving out of the Isleworth subdivision in Windermere earlier today.
Maybe in the Mel case but the Rihanna case - Chris Brown might have gotten off with no punishment if the photo was not leaked. It would have been covered up just like this story will be covered up.
Private marital spat? Yes but when a SUV takes out a fire hydrant then hits a neighbor’s tree hard - it is in the public domain. An innocent person could have gotten run over.
My guess is she does not put up with any crap. One of them is probably not happy in this situation and I bet it is her. He is very very famous and she is the wife. She probably thinks with her looks she should be the famous one.
She’s changing her story. She didn’t use a nine-iron. She used a wedge.
exactly the way I think it happened as well...
you know, put that way, it's almost plausible....
But why did he lock the doors?
I'm here to rescue you, Tiger!
A pair of troopers visited the house Friday night to speak with Woods, but they agreed to come back later when Nordegren said her injured husband was sleeping. The interview, in part, will determine whether charges are filed against Woods in the late-night crash.
Woods was bleeding from his mouth and semi-conscious when police arrived at his $2.4 million home in the wee hours after Thanksgiving.
They lock automatically just like mine.
Tommorrow our brilliant Congress will start the wheels in motion to register golf clubs, prohibit golf club shows, and limit the number of clubs you can buy in month. Women and minorities have suffered long enough.
If she had cheated on him, she should be kicked out of the house and should get NOTHING!!
No fault divorce is a travesty.
Marriage should be treated like any other contract. He who breaks it, pays.
Yeah. Private, gated communities are crawling with innocent people at 2:30 in the morning.
I sure hope for your sake you lock up your golf clubs, then.
exactly the way I think it happened as well...
I have a Toyota and when I put the car in gear the doors lock automatically.
I haven’t driven a car in so long I forgot how they work.
Bet none of the Police would light a match anywhere near his breath!!! Looks like Billions dont buy Happy Wives OR Sober Husbands!!
I feel sad for the kids. They will suffer. They always do. Very sad and very disappointed.
I’d like to think that if I were famous I’d have better judgment in selecting my friends.
they say it’s lonely at the top.
Real women don’t commit violent felonies.
Again, which is the greater crime?
