Tiger Woods is recovering and in
“good spirits” after a second day treatment at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre following his horrific rollover solo car crash that left him with serious leg injuries.
The gold superstar was transferred to Cedars-Sinai on Wednesday night after undergoing emergency surgery the day before at Harbor-UCLA Medical Centre to repair compound fractures sustained in each leg in addition to a shattered ankle.
“Tiger and his family want to thank you all for the
wonderful support and messages they have received over the past few days,” said a statement on Woods’ Twitter account. ” We will not have any further updates at this time. Thank you for your continued privacy.”
the 15-time major champion Woods was driving alone Tuesday morning in a south Los Angeles surburb when his SUV hit the centre median, crossed into the opposing lane, struck a tree and then rolled over several times.
Woods, who overcame numerous surgeries to break an 11-year
major drought and win the 2019 Masters, had hoped to compete at Augusta in
April.
The accident stunned the world of professional sport and
prompted an outpouring of support from fellow athletes as well as former U.S.
Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama.
