Official Tiger Car Crash/Infidelity Thread

[safetrip]

This is not directly related to the topic but thanks to this accident/scandal, I came to know that Tiger lives in this gated community which shares ponds and a golf course. Granted these are millionaires condos, but at the same time, I'd have thought that he lived in a gigantic mansion with 18 hole golf course for himself.

His house is worth $2.4mil according to the golf magazine article. His gross income this year alone is more than $100mil. How many people own a house that's less than 3% of yearly income? No pun intended, you have to admire his modesty.

Tiger owns north of $100+ million in personal real estate.

We are talking about Tiger Woods, not Lindsay Lohan.

Yes, but people are interested because it's exactly the kind of story that would have John Daly as its subject, not Tiger Woods.

People thought it was funny when Daly turned up to play with scratches all over his face caused by his partner. At least no-one pretended that these were "facial lacerations" and "head injuries" caused by an "accident".

think about it....

Not uncommon at all for a golfer of any level to have clubs sitting around.

And what made her think she even needed a club? Tiger barely left the driveway...

Since he had barely left the driveway, she had plenty of time to run out to see what happened, then run back in to get a club.

Just wondering why instead of grabbing a golf club she wouldn't just grab the extra set of keys and unlock the door that way?

Have you ever reacted in an emergency situation, or one where you thought it was an emergency? You will grab the first object you can find and use whatever force it takes. Now if she had had a spring loaded center punch in her pocket (all you volunteer and professional firefighters know what I mean) she could have popped out a side window very easily.

Here's a thought to ponder. I don't think I have ever seen an Escalade that didn't have ONSTAR. Is the only trigger for ONSTAR an air bag deployment? If not, I wonder if they were notified.

Good point

I will be the first to say I hope this turns out to be nothing, but first Tiger can't talk to police last night. They try again today, but Tiger and Elin weren't available so they will try again tomorrow. How long does it take to get a story straight?

[Cara1975]

I wonder if the average American is allowed to keep turning the police away from their door multiple times until they feel like talking?

You're assuming an extra set of keys existed, and that they were in a more quickly accessible location than a golf club. (In my household we have 3 vehicles - only one has a spare set of keys and they're in a drawer somewhere.)

[Cara1975]

Tiger is worth a billion dollars, I think he may just have a extra set of keys laying around. I don't understand why almost two days after this accident Tiger still hasn't spoken to the police. People with nothing to hide, don't hide from the police.

Ha ha . .yeah. I robbed a bank five years ago but I have a really long driveway. Everytime I see the cops coming up to my house I run into my bedroom and pretend to be asleep. It's been working so far.

I have to disagree with this - you should never talk to the police. Even if you have nothing to hide, are completely innocent, etc. etc. It can only harm you.

Long but worth seeing:

Has anyone filed charges? No. So it's not exactly important that he talk to them RIGHT NOW.

I'm sure he'll pay for the neighbor's tree and to have the fire hydrant fixed. Have you heard of any charges actually being filed? I haven't - not from FHP, Elin, or Tiger. Or his neighbor(s).

^^ synopsis please. hell will freeze over before I watch a 50 minute video on youtube...

... police could charge him with wreckless driving ...

I don't believe that is an option

lol
