Tiger Woods: Injuries Caused by Wife, Not SUV

Tiger Woods did not suffer facial lacerations from a car accident. They were inflicted by his wife, Elin Nordegren -- according to a conversation Woods had Friday after the accident.

Tiger Woods

Tiger has yet to be formally interviewed by the Florida Highway Patrol -- that should happen this afternoon. But we're told Tiger had a conversation Friday -- with a non-law enforcement type -- detailing what went down before his Escalade hit a fire hydrant.

We're told he said his wife had confronted him about reports that he was seeing another woman. The argument got heated and, according to our source, she scratched his face up. We're told it was then Woods beat a hasty retreat for his SUV -- but according to our source, Woods says his wife followed behind with a golf club. As Tiger drove away, she struck the vehicle several times with the club.

Tiger WoodsWe're told Woods became "distracted," thought the vehicle was stopped, and looked to see what had happened. At that point the SUV hit the fire hydrant and then hit a tree.

We're also told Woods had said during the conversation Friday he had been taking prescription pain medication for an injury, which could explain why he seemed somewhat out of it at the scene.

646. STAY SINGLE: AN EASIER WAY

Like most of you folks, I figured it out when the authorities said "there was no alcohol involved." Some women react violently after they find out about an affair. One of the problems with marrying beautiful, rich, famous people is that they feel an "entitlement" to p***y. Maybe this is Tiger's problem. I don't know. I've always wondered why men who feel this way get married. I suppose they want a "family" without having monogomy. Instead, they should just adopt "pre-born" children (there are plenty of African American children to choose from), and raise them.


Then, they can have all the p***Y they want, and not risk getting smashed by golf clubs and getting cat-scrathed. Plus there's no alimony. Tiger, why did you get married? Nobody forced you to.

648. This is all about Tiger's wife playing the "green card", if a spouse is beaten during a marriage it could null and void any prenup. Gog bless Tiger for not falling down that rabbit hole.

650. Some early morning am, Obama will come shooting out of the White House in his underwear with Michelle in hot pursuit carrying a meat cleaver. Advantage: Obama. The Secret Service can drop her right there on the spot.

651. If he was having an affair then he just another scumbag of a rich guy that thinks they can do anything they want. I hope his mom is real proud of him. So much for any role model that he was supposed to be.
Lets hope it is not true. Otherwise I will never root for him again.

652. The ones that are really going to suffer from his indiscretions with a home wrecking whore are his children. There are far too many marriages and families broken already by other factors. This is very sad.

653. Tiger was trying to get away from her after their fight and she was running toward him with the golf club and struck his vehicle.

"The reason people were venting their spleen at Chris Brown is because he is an ugly, piece of sh#t, that looks like something you would scrap off the bottom of your shoe. In my opinion, a DEAD Chris Brown is the only good Chris Brown.

Elin,on the other hand, is gorgeous, and this incident is most likely an aberration. With Chris Brown, you kind of expect him to be involved in these types of shenenigans.

Typical racist. Always putting European beauty standards ahead of anything else. I don't care much for Brown or Rihanna but I hate it when stuff like this is said. I bet if Brown had been light-skinned or Aryan looking and Rihanna had been dark-skinned you would have cheered on Brown. As for Tiger, this looks like a case of domestic abuse and he should get the kids and himself away from this woman. Even if he comitted adultery that's no excuse for her to attack him and if she's done it this time I'm sure she's being doing it for a long time. Spousal abuse is wrong whether it's man on woman, woman on man, man on man, or woman on woman.

656. "Just like the film industry won't allow blacks or women to be seen in unflattering roles, the media tries to do the same thing in real life. "

What the heck do you consider an unflattering role?
In the movies, Blacks play PIMPS, THUGS and DRUG DEALERS...
In real life they playthe HEAD of the Republican National Committee or become Alan Keyes or Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton.
OPEN YOUR EYES!!!
