Tiger Woods suffered a terrible car crash this morning at around 7:12 AM California time. He is in surgery to repair some major injuries to his legs. We have not heard any health update on the famous golfer at this time.

TMZ provided an update on Woods’ driving prior to his crash. He was staying at a hotel where “a major network television show was being shot.” Sources say that Woods nearly hit the director of the production just before 7:00 AM. This was apparently enough of a startling experience that the director told the crew about it when he arrived.

Tiger was staying at a hotel where a major network television show was being shot. Production sources tell TMZ, when the director arrived just before 7 AM, Tiger was driving his SUV very fast as he was leaving the property and almost hit the director’s car. The director was shaken enough to tell production staff about it after he parked.

It was also reported that law enforcement confirmed that Tiger Woods was alert at the scene of the accident when first responders arrived. Police also didn’t find anything illegal in the car.

Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News opened the door for a new opportunity for Jenkins. With a history in finance, he broke into the journalism game by writing on blogs and other freelance websites before branching into sports and entertainment news. Being in tune with pop culture doesn't mean it has to make sense, but he tries. Favorite bands include any group from Seattle who formed between 1991 and 1999. 5 Ozzfests under his belt and 12 Warped Tours, but his last concert was a bluegrass AC/DC cover band that was not 100% terrible.
