Come on, Tiger! Why'd you attend the Richard Hammond School of Driving?
I obviously wish for recovery, just wonder about sobriety and speed and all that, hope he'll do alright and it was just an accident.
it could be tiredness cuz it was at 7 am and he just finished up playing golf with dwayne wade. youre right tho still a lot of questions to be answered tho
Oh well thatd be totally understandable.
Hopefully the record is clean, I'd just rather have that info.
Hope he have a speedy recovery. I’m curious how well the Genesis GV80 occupant protection safety systems functioned in this unfortunate incident.
In a lot of the photos they show the engine just sitting next to the car... guess the motor mounts worked
I don’t think the engine separated from the chassis. The news reports made no mention of such a catastrophic failure.
praying for him...i just saw it on the news
Noooo tiger! I’m praying for you! 🏌️♂️👍
