Tiger Woods injured in minor car accident

Golfer Tiger Woods was treated and released after suffering minor injuries in a car accident early Friday in his central Florida neighborhood, his publicist said.

Woods, 33, was in a minor accident outside his home, according to a joint statement from his publicist and Health Central Hospital.

He is in “good condition,” the statement said.

The single-vehicle accident occurred about 2:25 a.m. in Windermere, a suburb of Orlando, according to police. Woods pulled out of his driveway in a 2009 Cadillac SUV and struck a fire hydrant and then a tree, according to an incident report from the Florida Highway Patrol in Orange County.

Police Chief Daniel Saylor said two Windermere police officers were the first to arrive on the scene.

“There was Tiger Woods laying on the ground in front of the vehicle, with his wife over him rendering first aid,” he said.

“He was in and out of consciousness with lacerations to his upper and lower lip,” Saylor said. “He was mumbling but didn’t say anything coherent.”
