The news has just reached us that golfing legend Tiger Woods has been rushed to hospital after being involved in a car crash.
Here's the full story...
Woods, who is forty-five-years-old, was involved in a car crash earlier today.
He was driving near Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles when his vehicle flipped over at around 7.12 am, the Daily Mail reported.
He appeared to have then careered off the road uphill, landing on a grassy verge.
It has also been reported that to get Woods out of the wreckage, firefighters used a device known as the "jaws of life" to break open the car.
​While his current condition isn't known...
