There is additional information about Tiger. CNN reports that, contrary to a post on this site, the police report that the SUV saved his life with its safety features

Quote:
"I do think the fact that he was wearing a seat belt and that the vehicle safety features worked as designed by the manufacturer likely resulted in either reducing his injury or saving his life,"
The police on the scene also report that Tiger was lucid and no signs of impairment. He was on his way to filming a TV program.

Quote:
Deputies responding to Woods saw no evidence of impairment, Villanueva said, and they didn't ask hospital officials to take a blood draw, he said.
He had hardware inserted into a damaged lower leg

Quote:
Orthopedic trauma specialists inserted a rod into his tibia to stabilize both the tibia and fibula bones, stabilized the foot and ankle bones with a combination of screws and pins and relieved pressure to the muscle and soft-tissue of his leg by surgically releasing the covering of the muscle, Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anish Mahajan said in the statement.
I am always amazed that someone who doesn't care about a topic would come to a thread about that topic only to post that the topic doesn't deserve attention because other things are more important. If you want to hate Tiger because of his infidelity, that's fine. At least be consistent and have the same visceral hatred for all persons in public life with a well established history of adultery.
