UPDATED: Woods' publicist issued a statement calling the accident minor, and that Tiger was "admitted, treated and released today in good condition." 

Golf superstar Tiger Woods is in serious condition after a single-car crash, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.


According to the report, Woods was leaving his house at 2:25 a.m. today when he struck a fire hydrant and then a neighbor's tree. An emergency call was placed three minutes later, after which Woods was admitted to Health Central Hospital in serious condition, according to the FHP.

When asked for comment this afternoon, hospital officials denied Woods was a patient, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

The accident is under investigation, and there's a possibility Woods could be charged. Alcohol wasn't a factor in the crash, the FHP tells WESH-TV in Orlando.

The station is also reporting that Woods was treated for lacerations on his face.

Story developing. We'll have more details as they become available.

Holy crap, I hope he's alright. I hope he wasn't drunk.

It always happens to good people!

no alcohol involved... He will be ok

Give me a break. "It always happens to good people." You gotta be kidding. Listen to yourself. What a load of malarkey. Besides, how well do you really know Tiger Woods?

I'm sure he will have the best care. Since he's in serious and not critical condition, I'm sure he'll be fine.

The fact that he was leaving his home at 2:25am, and couldn't make it past a fire hydrant or a tree, doesn't bode particularly well for how this happened. He was either emotionally distraught, speeding uncontrollably, or under the influence of something. Nothing else would explain this.

Other than that... wake up, Debbie, and be careful what you say, you might be setting yourself up as a victim.

Yes, why was he leaving his home at 2:25 am? This seems weird for a married family man. One wonders if he and his wife had a huge fight or what exactly happened. It does sound like an alcohol situation only it WASN'T apparently so what really happened?

I guess it was time to re-up his deal with the devil.

To Sheri

Could be he was not feeling well and was taking himself to the hospital or he had a family member who needed him. I worked in an ER. You would be amazed at the number of people who (foolishly) choose to drive themselves to the hospital while they're having a heart attack or other serious health issue. Denial is a powerful thing. He had lacerations on his face from the accident. That doesn't sound 'serious' to me. Maybe he was sick with something else the accident is secondary to what his serious illness is.

My lord some of you are nasty people. Your negative and condemning remarks are the signs of a sick mind. Maybe he was leaving to go to the airport, maybe he was going to an all night pharmacy to get medicine for a sick child, maybe after a trying day, such as we all have, he just needed to get out and collect his thoughts. None of you know what was going on so you have no right to judge. Yes, he is a great athlete but he is just the same as anyone else and these things can happen to everyone of us. Cut the crap and show some respect.

2:25am and he wasn't under the influence of something??? Sounds kinda fishy.....
