Tiger Woods ‘back home’ and recovering after serious car crash
Golfer Tiger Woods said on Tuesday he was back home and continuing his recovery after suffering severe leg injuries in a car accident last month. “Happy to report that I am back home continuing my recovery,” the 45-year-old golf great said on Twitter. “I will be recovering at home and working on getting stronger every day.” The one-car crash left the 82-time PGA Tour winner with a fractured right leg and shattered ankle and stunned the world of sport and beyond, with former US Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama among those who offered support. Woods, who was treated at Harbor-UCLA Medical Centre as well as Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, thanked his medical team as well as his fans for their well wishes. “I am so grateful for the outpouring of support and encouragement that I have received over the past few weeks,” said Woods. A dozen or so players at the Workday Championship in Florida wore black trousers and red shirts – the Sunday colours of Woods for his record-tying 82 victories on the PGA Tour – in the final round.
