Tiger has declined to meet with state police authorities concerning the accident, a choice well within his legal rights to select as initial investigations failed to suggest Tiger was under the influence or that illegal circumstances or actions led to the incident. Pictures from the scene released to the public show both rear windows on the vehicle had been smashed out of the car, thus speculation teamed with recent rumors of infidelity (as reported by Deadspin) on Tiger's part may have motivated his wife to smash the windows with a golf club, events supported by initial reports but unsupported by police and eye-witness accounts. Woods is scheduled to compete at his Chevron World Challenge, which starts Thursday in Thousand Oaks, Calif., although his tournament director failed to confirm Woods' plans for the tournament.

The NBC story notes multiple questions to which we do not have answers at this time, including Tiger's intended destination, how Tiger lost control of the vehicle, why were both rear windows destroyed on the vehicle, and other pieces of detailed inforrmation about the incident. The call simply notes the report of an apparent automobile accident with suspected injuries, and Tiger's comments (which we will review in an adjoining news post) fail to address these questions.

Woods was injured when his Cadillac SUV struck a fire hydrant and a tree just beyond his driveway at 2:25 a.m. Friday. Police said his lips were cut and blood was in his mouth when officers arrived. Police chief Daniel Saylor said Woods' wife, Elin, smashed the back window with a golf club to help get him out. Jim Solomons, a spokesman for the Orange County sheriff's office, said a neighbor of the Woodses called 911 after being awakened by the sound of the crash, The Wall Street Journal reported. Solomons, according to the newspaper, said the 911 recording reveals that the caller saw Woods on the ground injured and that Woods appeared to be unconscious but breathing. The 911 tapes of the crash could be released as early as Sunday. Woods' news conference for the Chevron World Challenge, the tournament he hosts that benefits his foundation, had been scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. It's unclear whether he would still play, or even attend the event in Thousand Oaks, Calif.

Singh underwent arthroscopic knee surgery earlier this season following undeniable pain, and reports from the PGA indicate the pain returned during a recent trip to Japan. Those same reports indicate Singh has flown to Los Angeles, Calfornia for medical attention where doctors removed floating cartilage from the surgically-repaired knee. We have no certain date of return for Vijay but doctors indicate he should be fine to play at the start of the 2010 PGA season.

The 39-year-old Weir has eight PGA Tour victories, matching George Knudson for the most by a Canadian. Weir's Hall of Fame plaque was unveiled Saturday night and features a sketch along with a brief biography. It will soon make a permanent home alongside other honored members at the Hall of Fame on Glen Abbey's grounds in Oakville. An exhibit featuring Weir's memorabilia has been on display at Glen Abbey since the Canadian Open in July.
