Golf champion Tiger Woods, 33, crashed his Cadillac Escalade into a fire hydrant and neighbor’s tree as he pulled out of the driveway of his $2.4 million mansion in the Isleworth gated community subdivision of Windermere, Florida, at 2:25 a.m. EST on Friday, Nov. 27, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. His smashed SUV is pictured above (source: WFTV in Orlando.) The “semi-unconscious” Woods, bleeding from “lacerations to the upper and lower lips” was transported to Health Central Hospital, and released shortly thereafter (quotes in reference to Windermere Police Chief Daniel Saylor‘s interview with CNN.) Police Chief Daniel Saylor, went on to add that Wood’s Swedish wife, Elin Nordegren, smashed the SUV’s window with a golf club to get him out.
Police (pictured left) arrived today at Woods’ house to interview him and his wife about the incident, but were turned away and told to return tomorrow (Sunday.) In a statement, Sergeant Kim Montes of the FHP’s Orlando division, said “The Florida Highway Patrol has received information that Tiger Woods and his wife were not available to be interviewed … This is still an ongoing crash investigation.”
The crash follows hot on the heels of allegations of infidelity in scandal magazines, “National Enquirer” and “Star,” involving Woods (pictured right with wife, Elin Nordegren) and New York clubber Rachel Uchitel, 34, (pictured left) who has since denied the rumored affair. The gossip columns are rife with musings over Nordegren possibly having scratched and injured the fleeing Woods, after their fighting over his reported fling with Uchitel, then diverting his attention while driving away by smashing his SUV’s rear window with a golf club, causing him to have the traffic accident.
