Tiger Woods' Car Crash Came After Explosive Story Claiming Affair
Saturday , November 28, 2009
Tiger Woods' bizarre overnight car crash outside his Florida home came only days after tabloids published articles claiming the golf champ was having an affair.
Investigators, meanwhile, traveled to Woods' home Saturday to interview him about the crash, but Florida Highway Patrol later said Woods and his wife, Elin, canceled that interview and have rescheduled for Sunday.
Woods, 33, had just backed out of his driveway at 2:25 a.m. Friday, when he drove off and plowed into a fire hydrant and a neighbor's tree in a gated community near Orlando.
Florida Highway Patrol spokeswoman Sgt. Kim Montes said that investigators are "trying not to get on the rumor mill," and police have said they had no knowledge of a fight between Tiger and Elin Woods. Audio from the 911 call is scheduled to be released Sunday.
The National Enquirer and Star both published explosive stories this week contending that Woods has been seeing New York night club hostess Rachel Uchitel and that the pair recently were spotted in Melbourne while Woods was playing in the Australian Masters tournament.
Uchitel denied having an affair with Woods when contacted by Fox News, saying the Enquirer story was completely fabricated.
"The quotes from the two sources who are not friends are ridiculous," she said. "I never crossed paths with Tiger in Melbourne — not in a restaurant, not in the gym, not in the lobby, nothing."
She said she barely knows the tabloid paper's sources and only has met them twice.
"I don't know who they are," Uchitel told Fox. "These two women put this out there. This is not something I want to be involved with at all. I'm not trying to go out there saying I'm having an affair with Tiger Woods."
Uchitel has hired high-profile attorney Gloria Allred to represent her.
A representative from the National Enquirer declined comment.
Woods was found lying in the street with his wife hovering over him when authorities arrived at the scene, according to Windermere, Fla., Police Chief Daniel Saylor.
Saylor said Woods' wife told officers she was in the house when she heard the accident and "broke the back window with a golf club."
"She supposedly got him out and laid him on the ground," he said. "He was in and out of consciousness when my guys got there."
He said in a briefing Friday night that the front-door windows were not broken and that "the door was probably locked."
"She was frantic, upset," Saylor told reporters. "It was her husband laying on the ground."
Celebrity gossip Web site TMZ reports, citing unidentified sources, that the crash was a result of a fight between the couple, who have been married five years and have two children, but police dispute that scenario.
"Right now we believe this is a traffic crash," said Montes. "We don't believe it is a domestic issue."
Two troopers tried to talk to the world's No. 1 golfer Friday evening, but his wife said he was sleeping and they agreed to come back Saturday, according to Montes.
The Florida Highway Patrol said tapes of the 911 call won't be released until they can be reviewed. Montes said the accident report was not issued for more than 12 hours because it did not meet the criteria of a serious crash, and the FHP only released information because of inquiries from local media.
Left unanswered was where Woods was going at that hour. His agent, Mark Steinberg, and spokesman Glenn Greenspan said there would be no comment beyond the short statement of the accident posted Friday afternoon on Woods' Web site that said:
"Tiger Woods was in a minor car accident outside his home last night. He was admitted, treated and released today in good condition. We appreciate very much everyone's thoughts and well wishes."
Saylor said the golf star had lacerations to his upper and lower lips, and blood in his mouth; officers treated him for about 10 minutes until an ambulance arrived.
Woods was conscious enough to speak but didn't say anything coherent, according to the police chief. Damage to the front of his SUV was described by Saylor as "not real extensive, but not real light."
According to the patrol, Woods had just left his Florida mansion when he lost control of his 2009 Cadillac and hit a fire hydrant, then a tree on his neighbor's property. The report said alcohol was not a factor.
The first word from Woods' camp — some 13 hours after the crash — was that it was a "minor accident," and he was in good condition after being treated and released.
Woods, coming off a two-week trip to China and Australia earlier this month, is host of the Chevron World Challenge in Thousand Oaks, Calif., which starts Thursday.
He is scheduled to have his press conference Tuesday afternoon at Sherwood Country Club. Steinberg said he did not know if Woods planned to play next week.
Woods rarely faces such private scrutiny, even as perhaps the most famous active athlete in the world.
He usually makes news only because of what he can do with a golf club. Few other athletes have managed to keep their private lives so guarded, or have a circle of friends so airtight when it comes to life off the course.
Woods' $2.4 million home is part of an exclusive subdivision near Orlando, a community set on an Arnold Palmer-designed golf course and a chain of small lakes.
The neighborhood, which is fortified with high brick walls and has its own security force, is home to CEOs and other sports stars such as the NBA's Shaquille O'Neal.
Woods has won 82 times around the world and 14 majors, becoming the first player of black heritage to win a major at the 1997 Masters when he was 21. He attended the Stanford-Cal football game last Saturday, where he tossed the coin at the start of the game and was inducted into Stanford's sports Hall of Fame at halftime.
Tiger situation....I am totally amazed how quick people jump to conclusions..when they were not there....there are no witnesses....no intimate photos of him with the woman....she admits she met him once....the wife read a tabloid.....and gets angry...well, duh...she and we should back off a bit until all have spoken....so quick to judge......as for the forum.....one cannot use it as KentKirk takes pleasure in ruining it for all concerned....he/she is destructive.....
Here's what really happened: Tiger didn't suffer the busted mouth in the car crash, and Elin didn't bust out the back window of the SUV to save him. 2 days before the crash the Enquirer broke the story of tiger's tittybar hostess gf being with him in a hotel down under. Elin confronted him and went berserk, attacked him and busted his mouth, chased him out with a golf club and was hitting his SUV with with it as he was escaping her wrath causing him to panic and crash. Bitch nearly killed him.

Mariage is a business deal much akin to prostitution.
LOL - "Hearing the announcer say "Tiger Woods leads by 6 strokes" will never sound quite the same again."%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% What does marriage mean to people? Not one thing apparently. The rich can pay to hide while cheating and the poor just do it in open publics. It would appear as I thought, marriage is a business deal much akin to prostitution.
Comment by the Total Truth “It's probably true that Tiger cheated on his white wife blacks are known best for that and Tiger is just another one of them!” ****** Reply by Fairminded “You are referring to black Sanford, black Ensign, black Edwards, and black Clinton? Do you still want me to go on? ..Cretin!” ***************** MY reply… “Total Truth” is a TOTAL LIAR!!! “Total Truth”/TOTAL LIAR is just another “one of them”…an ignorant, uneducated, racist.
but please Greta, get a makeover. The man clothes, frozen forehead and constant stammering is bringing down the Fox Network. Quit now, or fix yourself up. You're looking and sounding rough. We deserve better than you.
I like Gloria Allred, by taking these cases whereas the client obviously is not going to go on billing in a case that does not look contingency to me serves to put a big spotlight on her and is a sound investment for high rollers who will pay the $400/hr in the future when Gloria takes out the retainer agreement. This at the most sounds like a good old messy divorce case. This night club lady is very easy on the eyes and if she made the pass he should have deferred to 18 holes instead.
I give Tiger Woods the benefit of the doubt. It would be easy for someone to set up a rich famous man, the accident sounded like a domestic situation to me--Wife read the National Inquirer articles, hubby got home from trip, argument ensued, he left rather than stay and argue, she chased him down the drive way with a golf club and was attacking the car as it drove away. (Cadillac SUV has 4 other doors, why would she try to get him out of the back end of the car? makes no sense).

JUST ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT.
JUST ANOTHER PERSON WITH NO VALUES. (IF IT IS TRUE).

Uchitel seems to be a bimbo, but Woods is an idiot.

Bet he wishes he had used a different driver. I guess if he was cheating on his wife and got caught he deserves a little deep doo-doo to be in.
