Might give the others a slight chance then.

Seriously, good luck to him. Sounds like he pulled out of his drive and someone hit him.

"Alcohol not related", and air bags didn't deploy so only going <33mph.

Odd to hit a fire hydrant and a tree outside your own home. They presumably have been there before.

Cue lots of jokes about back to the driving range, etc.

Was he driving a Range Rover then?

 

[Juan Albion]

Huge number of jokes possible with this one. But I won't do any more until we find out more. Got to respect him, good case to say he is the world's supreme sportsman.

I've attended plenty of high speed collisions where airbags haven't deployed. All depends on angle of the impact. Don't believe all the puff in the adverts and in the car brochures.

Hope he recovers fully and goes back to winning big time.

I expect he was in a Volkswagon Caddy

Get well soon Tiger

 

[Juan Albion]

Facial lacerations.

Yes, but he had just left his driveway, so I don't suppose his speed was that great.

Question is, what was he doing going out at 2:25am? Black Friday sale at Best Buy? Was he trying to save a few bucks on a flat screen TV?

 

[seagullwedgee]

so, he wasn't off his TROLLEY then?

 

[Billy the Fish]

I bet that was the shortest drive he's ever hit

 

[Juan Albion]

He is feeling a little under par, which he should be quite used to by now.

 

[Northstander]

I believe he nearly hit a birdie as he was in mid drive, he still had a fair way to go to get on the road!

i heard he just couldnt get it out of the rough afterwards
