This full report from The Orlando Sentinel about Tiger Wood’s car accident involving a fire hydrant:
“Professional golfer Tiger Woods sustained facial lacerations in a car accident early this morning outside the driveway of his Isleworth home, the Florida Highway Patrol reported.
Woods, 33, pulled out of his driveway about 2:25 a.m. when he struck a fire hydrant and drove into a tree at his neighbor’s property, FHP reported.
Woods was transported to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee in serious condition, FHP said.
Officials close to accident investigation told the Orlando Sentinel that Woods received facial lacerations. Windermere Mayor Gary Bruhn told CNN that the golfer, who is No. 1 in the world rankings, had facial cuts in a minor accident.
Woods was treated at Health Central early this morning and released.
FHP spokesman Jorge Delahoz said patients’ conditions are always classified as “serious” if they are transported to a hospital.”
Woods’ next door neighbor is actor Wesley Snipes, so at least he has someone funny to make him laugh as he recovers at home with wife and family.”
