Tiger Woods slightly injured in car accident near his home
Tiger Woods is just fine, thank you! The uber-pro golfer was treated for facial lacerations Friday after running into a fire hydrant and a tree in his Cadillac SUV around 2:25 a.m.
The mayor of Windermere, where Woods lives, told CNN that police arrived within two minutes of being notified.
And we know you're thinking it, at that time of night after a holiday, so -- the Florida Highway Patrol said that alcohol did not appear to be a factor, though the accident is under investigation.
Nobody's seriously hurt (except maybe the fire hydrant and the tree?) so we're gonna say it: Life is good when the police show up in two minutes, the mayor does your PR for you, and you crash your GM vehicle well
