World-renowned American golf star Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident in Los Angeles.
Woods, 45, who was hospitalized and operated on, was reported to have two broken legs, but it was not life-threatening.
The golfer, who was alone in his car during the accident, flipped his car and rolled over. Woods was removed from the vehicle with the help of cutting tools.
Woods was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving after falling asleep while driving in 2017. Woods was charged with reckless driving after the incident.
Woods had an accident in front of his house in 2009. The accident caused it to appear that he was cheating on his wife at the time. Woods lost some of the major endorsement deals as a result of this scandal.
“Tiger Woods not only had great successes in his career as a golfer, but he also had great downfalls in his personal life. It looks like this accident will represent a turning point in his career,” BBC golf reporter Iain Carter said in a commentary on BBC Radio 5.
Tiger Woods, who has been at the top of world golf for many years, was one of the most successful athletes in the world.
Woods, who had two back surgeries in 2014 and 2015, fell from first place to less than the top 500 after his injury.
Tiger Woods, who was born on December 30, 1975 in California, USA, is known as the most successful golfer of all time despite his tumultuous career.
