The suspicion that golfer Tiger Woods did nothing to prevent the brutal accident that caused him to fracture his legs on Feb. 23 gained more strength by revealing to California authorities that the winner of 15 majors did not step on the brake lift your accelerator foot off your vehicle.
A report from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office obtained by the TMZ portal reveals that the 11 times proclaimed ‘Player of the Year’ did nothing to prevent the accident in which his vehicle went off the road , hit a tree and made several turns.
Woods, 45, suffered fractures to his tibia and fibula in his right leg, as well as injuries to his foot and ankle bones that left him hospitalized for several days at UCLA Harbor Hospital in Los Angeles.
The new version is a consequence of the examination of several videos obtained in the trajectory since the player left a hotel.
The same journalistic versions point out that investigators believe that speeding in the stretch of the race in which Woods was injured adds to the causes of the accident.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva announced hours after the crash that the golfer’s van was “going at a considerable speed.”
Firefighters who rushed to the crash site in Rancho Palos Verdes, a city in Los Angeles County, had to use various tools to free Woods from the vehicle.
Woods issued a statement earlier this week announcing his return home to Florida to continue his recovery.
