I just watched the tiger documentary on HBO - highly recommend - but I think this is clearly a case of him relapsing on painkillers from his spine surgery. Nobody gets into a one car accident like that at 7am while clean.No skid marks in Tiger's crash, maybe he was run off the road by force? The back corner is suspicious. Or traveling as fast as hell.
He needed a long surgery with pins and screws in his leg and feet.
He's not invincible, and one of the things that happens with people and opioids and spine surgery is basically drug seeking behavior driving them to more surgery so they get more drugs. In his case, I am certain he is constantly fucking his spine up playing too much golf but still the logic follows from there.
