Tiger Woods has been taken to hospital with leg injuries after a car crash in which his vehicle suffered “major damage”.
The Los Angeles county sheriff’s department said it responded to a “single vehicle roll-over collision on the border of Rolling Hills Estates and Rancho Palos Verdes” around 7am local time on Tuesday. TV footage of what is believed to be the crash site showed a car with damage to its front end just off the road on a hillside.
