First, this is not my photo. It represents a golf story which is rather curious and catching the attention of many sports fans. It seems that the most famous golfer in the world has had a curious incident and he is not very willing to discuss it with the public, nor the police who want a statement from him.
I am sure you are familiar with the details. TW drives out of his gated community in the wee hours of the morning, hits a fire hydrant and a tree, and someone calls 911. They find TW on the ground with his wife hovering over him, beside the Cadillac Escalade, claiming to have just smashed the rear window of the SUV to get him out. Concerned and heroic wife, no?
But things are not always what they seem.
How often does a married family man come tearing out of his driveway at 2 in the morning and drive erratically enough to hit a tree and a fire hydrant. Curious.
How is it that his wife was right there, golf club in hand, to rescue him? How is it that she was aware that he was in an accident so quickly?
How is it that it was such a minor accident, yet TW has cuts to his face and mouth and is dazed and incoherent on the ground?
How is it that a minor fender bender requires the rear window of the vehicle to be smashed and the driver rescued? It was not a roll over or even a bad enough impact to deploy the air bag.
Here is an idea that makes sense.
They have a fight. (There are rumours that TW was seeing another woman while in Australia last week at a tournament) It gets physical. The little woman comes after him with a golf club and inflicts damage to his face. While trying to escape her, he flees in his Escalade with her in hot pursuit, slamming the club into the back window. He corners too hard, miscalculates, is dizzy from the blow from the golf club, and hits the tree. The neighbour is there right away, as are the police and ambulance. It looks bad so wifey makes up the story about the rescue attempt. A domestic dispute gone bad.
Everyone deserves their privacy, but TW is a very public figure and is adulated by millions of aspiring golfers around the world. As much as he would like this whole thing to go away, it will not until honesty and disclosure is assured. This will be much tougher for TW that making an Eagle putt.
