tiger woods injured in car crash

Don't worry. Tiger's okay. The New York Times is reporting that golfer Tiger Woods has been released from a hospital in good condition after being injured in a car accident early this morning: Tiger Woods Injured in Car Accident, Mayor Says

Initial reports, citing the Florida Highway Patrol, said earlier that Woods' car struck a fire hydrant and a tree in Florida's Isleworth community, near Orlando. They said he was transported to a hospital in Ocoee in serious condition. No one else was in the car.

But if it's confirmed that Woods was only treated for facial lacerations, and is already out of the hospital, I'm guessing it's probably not that serious.

The highway patrol says the crash is still under investigation, and charges are pending. However, the highway patrol said the crash was not alcohol-related. Maybe he ate too much turkey? More here: Woods injured in crash near home.
