Champion golfer Tiger Woods is resting comfortably this Black Friday after being injured in a car accident in The Sunshine State this morning.
Florida Highway Patrol has confirmed that Woods, 33, crashed his 2009 Cadillac SUV into a fire hydrant and a tree while pulling out of the driveway of his mansion in a gated waterfront community outside Orlando.
Authorities have confirmed that the wreck was not alcohol-related.
Tiger was taken to Health Central Hospital, where he was treated for injuries sustained in the crash and released. According to ESPN, Woods suffered facial lacerations. However, Tiger’s spokesman Glenn Greenspan says the golfer is in “good condition.” The crash remains under investigation by Florida authorities.
The athlete’s office has posted a statement on his website regarding the accident:
“Tiger Woods was in a minor car accident outside his home last night. He was admitted, treated and released today in good condition. We appreciate very much everyone’s thoughts and well wishes”
the golf gods are probably not happy with Tiger's injuries... I hope he has a speedy recovery
