During a press conference on the accident, LA sheriff Alex Villanueva revealed that Tiger was not impaired in any way when the crash occurred, via CNN.

He added that neighbors called 911 at 7:12 a.m. local time: “We have to assume they made that call almost immediately, as soon as it happened, because the neighbors are sitting right within 50 feet of the location.”

Tiger was airlifted to a local hospital and underwent surgery on his legs.

The PGA golfer was involved in an accident in 2017, and in 2009 in Florida. The latter unveiled a cheating scandal that led to his divorce from Elin Nordegren.
