Pro golfer Tiger Woods has reportedly been taken to a hospital following a car crash in Orlando, Florida.

Officials told news channel CNN that the one-car accident took place near Woods' Windermere home Friday around 2:25 a.m.

The Florida Highway Patrol reports that the acclaimed golfer had just pulled out of his driveway in his Cadillac SUV when his car struck a fire hydrant, leaving the front of his vehicle stuck in a tree, according to CNN.

The car wreck is under investigation and, according to a statement obtained by the news channel, the accident does not appear to have involved alcohol.

Woods is the father of three children and is married to supermodel Elin Nordegren.

  • Hope it is not true that Tiger cheated on his wife. Don't think I would mess with his wife if she really did take a golf club after him.

  • I also wonder if a domestic issue took place prior to the accident that explain the facial injuries ..odd considering the airbag didnt deploy and his suv is like a tank.

  • I hope Tiger gets well soon.Seems he may have sustained a head injury by the loose facts trickling out..I think it's odd he'd leave the house at 2:30 am his neighborhood is safe but Orlando isnt.

  • It is hard to be a success and rich man. A lot of tempation, specially from a person who are a golddigger. Eventhough he is married and has kids, they don't care. Hopefully Tiger's wife stand by his man. Don't let the golddigger detroying your life. Tiger is a good man.
