Tiger Woods involved in single-car accident in Los Angeles
Golf Digest ^ | 2/23/2021 | Daniel Rapaport

Posted on 02/23/2021 11:42:48 AM PST by NautiNurse

Tiger Woods was hospitalized after being involved in a single-car accident in Los Angeles on Tuesday morning. The extent of any potential injuries, as well as the circumstances of the accident, remain unclear.

Woods, 45, was in California for a two-day content shoot with Golf Digest/GOLFTV after serving as host for the PGA Tour's Genesis Invitational over the weekend. Pictures surfaced on social media of Woods smiling with Dwayne Wade and David Spade at Rolling Hills Country Club on Monday, but with his movement still restricted, he did not hit balls or play any holes. The shoot involved Woods giving on-course lessons to a number of celebrities, but he mostly provided instruction and hit a few putts. He was in good spirits on Monday but did not arrive to the course for the second day of shooting.

On Sunday, Woods told CBS’ Jim Nantz that he was awaiting the results of an upcoming MRI before he could ramp up practicing and training for a return to competition.

Woods last competed alongside his son at the PNC Championship, which finished on Dec. 20 in Orlando. He then underwent a microdiscectomy procedure to remove a pressurized disc fragment that was pinching a nerve. It was his fifth back surgery overall and the first since his spinal fusion in April 2017.

The “dangerous road” made him drive too fast?

The way it was described, there are frequent motor vehicle accidents along the stretch of road.

Not easy to roll a car going the speed limit on a dry road.

I was originally going to say something snarky but it’s clear this accident was no joke.

My prayers for his safe recovery.

Let me guess. His ex-wife (WHO HAS A TWIN SISTER!!) chased him with a golf club again, right?

Car has the Genesis ensignia from the tournament he hosted this past weekend at Riviera Country Club. So a loaner car.

11:43 AM PT -- An L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. source tells TMZ Sports they do not believe alcohol was involved but they did not say whether any other substance was possibly involved.

Yes, cars don’t typically roll unless an attentive driver is jerking the wheel to avoid something that shouldn’t be in his lane.

If I were Tiger Woods, why would I be living in LA? Or even close to.

There are a million better places to live.
