Via the Breaking News twitter account comes reports that Tiger Woods has been in a "serious" car accident near his Orlando home.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, Woods left his house at 2:25 AM in his Cadillac Escalade, before hitting a fire hydrant, and then continuing into a neighbor's tree. The Florida Highway Patrol said that Woods' airbag did not deploy, which means that he was traveling under 33 MPH at the time of the accident.

As of 2:30 PM on Friday afternoon, an official at the hospital said that Woods was not a patient. Police are still investigating, and say charges are pending.

Thoughts and prayers to Tiger, I hope he’s alright. Probably the greatest champion of my lifetime, it would an incredible loss to sports as a whole.
Cannot play with 'em, cannot win with 'em, cannot coach with 'em. Cant do it.

He was drunk
he got in a fight with his wife after he had been drinking and he left home driving recklessly and pissed off. Obviously some people were paid off to keep the PGA’s golden boy’s reputation intact.
