Tiger Woods' Condition Remains Unknown

The competitive golfer's condition remains unknown as the investigation remains ongoing, according to the Martin County Sheriff's Office. An eyewitness told TMZ that two vehicles were involved and Woods "appeared to be OK" on the scene. The crash was "ultimately caused by excessive speed," per the outlet.

The accident comes 17 years after the athlete survived an SUV rollover outside his Florida mansion.
In November 2009, the golfer's vehicle struck a fire hydrant and then a neighbor's tree after pulling out of his driveway at around 2:24 am. Woods' then-wife, Elin Nordegren, reportedly used a golf club to smash the car's window to help get him out.

After making his return, Woods revealed his desire to play in The Masters at Augusta National in two weeks. However, Donald Trump slammed the idea during a recent Fox News segment.
