(CNN) -- Golfer Tiger Woods was taken to a Florida hospital after suffering serious injuries in a car wreck early Friday, officials said.

The one-car accident occurred about 2:25 a.m. near his home in Windermere, a suburb of Orlando, according to an incident report from the Florida Highway Patrol.

Woods, 33, had just pulled out of his driveway and begun to drive down the street when his Cadillac SUV struck a fire hydrant, the Florida Highway Patrol said. The front of his vehicle then struck a tree.
Woods was taken to Health Central Hospital, though a woman who answered the phone Friday afternoon said he was not there.

The crash is under investigation and charges are pending, though it was not clear who could face charges. The accident did not appear to have been alcohol-related, the statement said.

I wish him a full recovery.

He better think twice about that, a ring that size will leave a mark if he makes her mad again.

If he did actually cheat on his wife while she was pregnant he is worse than any bimbo, he is low life pond scum.

I don't get that, Minnie. You sound as though you believe that it is worse for a married man to cheat while his wife is pregnant, than it would be for him to cheat if she wasn't pregnant. In my book, cheating is cheating, regardless of pregnancy, children present, married, unmarried, etc. There is no "worse" degree of cheating.

I hear what you are saying, SJ, but there is something about a man cheating while they're about to become the father of the baby who was conceived out of love. It is about as low as it gets.


(disclaimer: I'm not saying he cheated while she was pregnant. I know nothing. Just commenting.)

It's only worse because it is a time when a woman is most vulnerable, and she is more likely to think it is because she is unattractive and undesirable, instead of the truth, which is that the problem is not hers but his.

It's just doubly hurtful is all. I know people it has happened to and it is just not pretty. :(

That is because you have never been pregnant. The women get it.

It is like a six grade bully picking on someone the same age and same size, and picking a fight with a kindergarten kid with limited vision and on crutches. A woman is very vulnerable physically and emotionally when pregnant.

Kinda like stealing from Bill Gates or some homeless person, there are levels of wrong. It is wrong to steal from anyone but Bill Gates will be able to handle it easier than someone that is homeless and has lost everything.

It is something you have to experience to relate. My ex cheated on me when I was young and able to rebuild and move on to a much better life. I thanked the good Lord everyday I was not pregnant or a mother when it happened because the only person hurt was me, not an innocent child. It was easier for me to rebuild and move on, as a young woman instead of a mother.

So, I have been thinking about this situation. I don't get how people who are very high profile think that they can do things such as this and get away with it. Seriously, don't they know that eventually it will get told?

Stupid is as stupid does! I have always loved me some Tiger Woods, but I have to tell you, I hope the wife kicks his cheating A$$ out of the mansion and takes 1/2 of everything he has! Perhaps then, he might keep it locked up a little tighter!

A part of me wishes that they can work things out, but take it from someone who has been where Mrs. Woods is....it ain't likely to happen!

So, does it now seem as though there was smashing of the rear window while in the driveway? Or, did Elin turn into a superheroine either running the car down or saving her cheatin' heart husband?

For 31 mos. to boot! He might have hit another record!!

It is worse IMO - cheating is horrible, but cheating on your wife AND unborn child is just the lowest of the already low.

Cheating = moldy pond scum

Cheating on your pregnant wife = what moldy pond scum uses for TP!

I think that one calls for a double fist pump. Sounds like Chris Rock's theory applies to Tiger. You're only as faithful as your options.

It happens all the time, homeless people have a few clothes, blanket, the cardboard box they live in, a small cart of stuff, and another homeless person or even just a very mean spirited person will take all they have, but surely you know this. :idontno:

Spirit Airlines is running an Eye of the Tiger discount special with a JibJab funny to advertise it. We saw this on the local news. Kat and I went out to eat near Isleworth and the media were in there asking anyone if they knew him. The neighborhood is really sick of this.

If she really wants to hurt him, she'll forego the golf club and go after him with an attorney and an accountant.

Hmmm, seems Mrs. Woods and I think alike.
Details of Elin Woods' newly rewritten prenup emerge

By Jay Busbee

Elin and Tiger Woods had a prenuptial agreement, as expected. The couple is undergoing marital counseling, as you'd also expect. And now The Daily Beast is reporting that Elin Woods is renegotiating that prenup to get an immediate $5 million payout from her husband and as much as $55 million more to stay with him for two more years.
The initial prenup was worth $20 million after 10 years of marriage. However, the Chicago Sun-Times' Bill Zwecker has reported that Elin Woods will receive an immediate payment "into an account she alone controls," and that the 10-year timeframe -- which began when they married in 2004 -- has been shortened and the value increased "substantially." ;-)

The Daily Beast quotes "a lawyer familiar with the couple's negotiations" in reporting that the term of the prenup has been shortened to seven years, and that a series of staggered payments could increase the total value to $75 million.

But apparently there's also a behavioral component to all this: Elin Woods must "be a dutiful wife in showing up with him at social events and in public as if they were still the perfect couple, and sign a nondisclosure form that will prevent her from ever telling her story." <I've had far crappier jobs that paid much, much less.>

It's important to note that to date, there's no concrete evidence that Elin Woods has ever been anything but the perfectly dutiful golf wife. I'm sure the Woodses would like nothing more than to portray domestic calm to the world, and Elin Woods now apparently has several million more reasons to do just that.

I saw a slideshow of photos of them on yahoo.com

In most of the pics, Tiger looks very unhappy.....maybe he's just focused, etc., but he was rarely smiling. Elin, on the other hand, was always smiling and appeared to be genuinely attentive to him.

A picture speaks 1,000 words.
