Tiger crashes

Tiger Woods, in a single car rollover this morning in California, in surgery with leg injuries. He was removed from the SUV with the jaws of life.

I hope he fully recovers and is able to resume his golfing career.

I thought it was his putter giving him problems, not the driver.

I've heard he seriously ****ed up his leg...and foot...big time.

He's lucky if he even walks normally on it ever again...if he even keeps the leg...there is still danger of losing it to infection etc.

I say he pulls a Hogan and is back at it next year. When you combine access to the best medical care and his tireless work ethic anything’s possible. The guy’s the Lazarus of golf.

If there’s one lucky break it’s his right vs left leg. Other way round and he’d be toast.

Cart exemption for Tiger Wood?

Tiger was very vocal on his college buddy, Casey Martin not getting an exemption to ride a cart. It took the Supreme Court to overturn the PGA.

I saw a presser where they had the xrays of his damaged leg, ankle, and foot. Supposedly there was a team of orthopedic, vascular and neuro docs involved. No word on his recovery other than it will be extensive. I do hope he recovers well. Golf needs their biggest draw of all time.

His injuries just sound absolutely HORRIFIC to me. If he plays golf again on a competitive level, I'd be absolutely amazed.

Plus I hear he just had back surgery in December? I imagine this accident had the potential to wreak havoc on his already messed up back.

Take all these things into consideration, and it would be an absolute miracle if he is able to play the game at anywhere near the level he is used to...

Tiger Woods should be jailed for reckless driving and have his license revoked forever. He crossed a divider at high speed and is lucky he did NOT kill innocent drivers. He was never a victim but a threat.

He didn't hurt anyone but himself. If it really bothers you, go make a citizen's arrest.

Dude was just probably in a hurry and it got away from him.
