As the statement says, he was removed from a badly damaged vehicle with the “jaws of life.” Golf Digest’s Daniel Rapaport reported that Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg, has released a short statement on behalf of Tiger.
“Tiger Woods was in a single-car accident this morning in California where he suffered multiple leg injuries. He is currently in surgery and we thank you for your privacy and support.” The specifics of the leg injuries have not been confirmed, but the fact that he is in surgery implies some level of severity.
