Woods' agent Mark Steinberg said: "He is currently in surgery and we thank you for your privacy and support."

Steinberg confirmed the detail about the American having sustained "multiple leg injuries".

The leg injuries don't sound good but Ben Hogan suffered terrible injuries in a car crash and recovered to win more 6 majors.

Let's hope Tiger can come back too.

For a guy who reportedly spent time in a sex addiction clinic.....just imagine not being able to get your leg over anymore

Fingers crossed for him

Aged 45, this surely has to be career ending? Let's hope it's not going to impact the rest of his life too much.

I've actually driven along that section of road, so not sure how you could have such a serious accident there. Guess we will find out in time.

If he's just had back surgery....he's probably on drugs of some kind....Single car accident.

*insert bad joke about driving straight*

I've never understood the difference between sex addiction and a normal desire to have sex from your early teens right up to your middle ages. ;)

I've heard on Sky News he's recovering from surgery to "save his right leg". That sounds pretty serious but the news is questioning whether he can make a comeback rather than overcome his injuries and live a normal life, which I very much hope he does.

It's a Hyundai, so probably not. I was suprised he wasn't in a nicer motor but I read he had it as a promo vehicle. I guess he valued the dollar higher than his dignity.

It apparently rolled several times, hit a tree before plunging off the road ending up on its side. 20 years ago he would be dead.
Pretty good outcome, if you ask me.
But I agree with anyone who asks for continual improvement in driving safety.

That would explain the lack of sick jokes. ;)
