There were no tire or skid marks present. I'm personally betting on distracted driving (That's what happened with his Escalade crash IIRC) although he was also reported of almost hitting another car earlier that morning and having a very bad attitude the day of.

Tiger ain't a Saint, but I'm not one either and I wish him a speedy recovery.

He can put his balls in cups or whatever pleases him - that ain't my business, and times like these make me wonder why people make it theirs.

Yeah, I read that too. Early reports were woefully inaccurate.

Bentley? No, it was a Genesis SUV

Rancho Palos Verdes? No, it was Rolling Hills Estates

Steep, winding road? No, it was downhill but not steep and it was not winding.

The car rolled and went down an embankment? No, the car went up an embankment.

The front end was sheered off? No, the front end is still there.


It will take days to get the real story. In the meantime, reporters who are not encumbered by the facts will keep guessing until the accident report is final.

At least it gets the fear mongering off the news for awhile. I’m surprised they haven’t blamed the crash on Covid.

Best of luck to Woods. Yes he might be a real asshole, but he’s an entertaining asshole and having a badly broken leg has to suck. He’ll get the best therapy money can buy and will hopefully be able to laugh this off in 12-18 months. I hope he recovers well and can still play.

I think this finally cements Jack’s record though. No way Woods will catch him now after so many back surgeries, this current situation, and the relentless attack of Father Time.

You really can't tell an engine intrusion or non-intrusion from any of the photos. It's purely speculative in both directions.

We do know that he has a crush injury. We don't know the nature of the crush.

There is video of tiger driving on that road right before crash, it does not show the crash but it shows him following another SUV at normal speed and no signs of being out of control. It looks like he just drove off the road for no apparent reason as media and everyone has been speculating.

I guest we will all have to wait until the police report gets leaked.

The Sheriff ruled the incident purely and accident and no charges will be filed. It seems that all of the people who have commented about his character, hoping that he is hurt worst, etc., will be disappointed.

So doesn't this perhaps suggest he was distracted while driving? This just proves something is very off with the whole thing. Then again, some claim he was definitely traveling at a high speed.

Gotta make some popcorn and wait for that leaked police report I guess.

It sounds like the sheriff's department is jumping the gun just like the media did when they put out stories without any sense of the actual facts.

Would it make sense to check cell phone records, black box recorder, dash cam video (if available), toxicology report, before rendering a conclusion. I mean, wait a day or two and get it right.

You've brought this pic up with the suv on it's side so it can be seen why Tiger's right leg had multiple fractures,the PU's ripped off it's mounts piercing the bulkhead and on removing the wreck the PU moved with little holding it.
The Genesis must've hit the tree head on at a certain degree of right angles.

Being a 4 mile trip, I doubt he lost attention. Being he was late, he was hauling ass came up on the curve, got on the brakes which were (a) cold, and (b) not a powerful as he is used to and went tangent to the arc of the curve. No skid marks because ABS doesn't leave skid marks. The Genesis I'm sure has hidden telemetry data in the ECU that will be extracted by the Police/Hyundai/Insurance company and we'll have more data to evaluate.
B is the winner.

Cold brakes provide max bite but I don't think the Hyundai chassis is known for its braking prowess.

Dead on with the telemetry. I think they record the last 30 seconds or 1 minute of the vehicle's performance, if I remember correctly.

This isn't done for your 'typical' accident in any jurisdiction. He didn't cause injury or death to another, so they'll do a preliminary investigation and move on to the next one.

Go down to your local PD, collect all of the accident reports from yesterday, and check how many have toxicology reports and cell phone usage data included.
