ORLANDO, Florida (AP) -Tiger Woods was seriously injured when he hit a fire hydrant and a tree near his Florida home early Friday, authorities said.
The Florida Highway Patrol said Woods hit the fire hydrant and tree as he pulled out of his driveway in his 2009 Cadillac sport utility vehicle.
He was taken to Health Central Hospital. Officials there did not have record of him as a patient, though the news release said Woods' injuries were serious.
The highway patrol said the crash was still under investigation, and charges are pending. However, the highway patrol said the crash was not alcohol-related.
Woods, 33, owns a home in the exclusive subdivision of Isleworth near Orlando. Orange County property records indicate his home is valued at $2.4 million.
