Says now that it isn't drink related. Hope it isn't as bad as they are making out.

His driving is clearly below par!


He's better off putting around slowly...




of course, I hope he isn't hurt too badly

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"

Pissed up?

how can somebody be worth so much yet drive such ste?

Assuming he knows the area well, there's got to be something abnormal that has caused him to hit a fire hydrant....drink?

You would have to assume that he knows his own driveway moderately well.

Its got to be good news for Westwood.

I couldn't decide where to post. It's in the news and would probably get better replies in here but it is a sport...

I see what you did there.

That is a pun on Escalade and Tim Westwood, right??

He does GM ads, so I assume they'd be upset if he was cruising around in an Audi.

Apparently not hurt as bad as some reported. Treated and released from hospital.

[pokethepope]

He's only 33? I thought he was around 40...

Back to playing off scratch then.

UK (Scotland) news just reported that he was 'rescued' from the car by his wife, who smashed a window with a golf club. Police arrived to find him 'lying in the road with his wife standing over him' Given that he has been romantically linked to another woman, what's the chances that there was an entirely different scenario, and the fire hydrant is innocent?

I wonder if he ate anything in the hospital? He could probably do with a sandwedge or something after all that ordeal.
