World number one golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident on Friday, a Florida newspaper reported. The Orlando Sentinel, citing the Florida Highway Patrol, said Woods' car struck a fire hydrant and a tree in Florida's Isleworth community, near Orlando. Woods, 33, was transported to a hospital in Ocoee in serious condition, the newspaper said, citing the FHP. Woods is one of the world's richest athletes, a leading force in sports marketing and the biggest draw on the PGA tour. Woods made a triumphant comeback on the tour this year after sitting out much of the 2008 season following reconstructive knee surgery.
