The SUV apparently rolled over several times. Several? What on earth was he doing behind the wheel to cause that? Or is Hyundai going to get paid an unfriendly visit from the US Department of Transportation?

Fat chance you’d get a Bentley to roll that much.
I do wonder how much the engine dropping feature played into the roll over, if it did at all.

Down a hill.

The car was a courtesy car for Genesis Tournament VIPs, he probably never drove it before. Jumped in, running late for early video shoot, hauled ass in an unfamiliar car over a route the cop made sound like a motocross track. Then, at the worst possible moment, his Asian side came out while behind the wheel and he ate it, bigly.

Now I'm no doctor but I did bang a hooker in a Holiday Inn Express last night. So based on what I've heard about his injuries and considering the resources he has available, I feel confident he will walk and even play golf again. PGA level golf, we'll see.

You have to ask why he struck the median. Was he impaired? Had the 5,000-pound SUV somehow already gotten away from him? Was it a simple lack of driver attentiveness?

At that point Tiger was no longer in control. The elements were. He was along for the ride behind the wheel of a wayward 2.5-ton SUV with a high center of gravity that was gathering downhill speed and likely flipped when it struck the curb and a tree on the opposite side of the road and began a series of rolls into the brush.

Interestingly, the NHTSA hasn’t yet released crash test results on the vehicle.

Lots of screws, pins and rods in his legs now. I'd say his competitive golfing days are over.

They have these things in California called hills. Possibly you’ve heard of them or perhaps even seen one.

He's alive
He's a sports celebrity
He's been an adulterer
He's had other car wrecks
He's slept with his neighbor's daughter
He's had numerous mistresses
He's had numerous call girls
He's had a DUI

Sorry but I can't feel sorry for someone who is this self-destructive.

Who asked anyone to feel sorry for him?

It's good to see you cast the first stone.

Oh I am far from perfect...but I also am not all over the news and y'all are droning on about someone who is far from dead.

Oh yeah, that's right - Geraldo was sharing his wisdom about how Tiger Woods changed the culture of golf, which used to be only for fat white guys. Maybe he didn't say fat but it was some other adjective indicating heavysetness.
"Portly".....or perhaps "a mature physique"
