There have been many theories about where exactly Tiger Woods is hiding out. Some people have suggested Florida, on a boat, California, Arizona, etc. etc. It’s getting to the point that it feels like playing “Where’s Waldo.” Now TMZ is reporting that the pro golfer is hiding out in Africa? Sources tell TMZ that right after the car accident occurred, Woods had already planned to head to Africa and stay at a friend’s estate. We feel that this theory is just as truthful or untruthful as any of the other theories.

Amid talks of adultery and romance rumours, Tiger Woods’ biggest concern was the Florida police…that’s no longer the case.
After smashing up his Cadillac Escalade near his Orlando estate, the Florida Highway Patrol is penalizing Woods with a careless driving ticket that will cost him $164. The multi-millionaire golfer spends more than that on a meal.
Florida Police also failed to obtain a search warrant to uncover any alternative causes of the accident, not having sufficient evidence to back it up.

Golfer Tiger Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegren, told the Windemere Police Department that she went outside and saw her husband had struck a fire hydrant and a tree. She then used a golf club to break the windows of the vehicle and free Woods, reports TMZ.
However, the Florida Highway Patrol says the story Nordegren told them did not involve her returning to the house to get a golf club. There was also no blood found on the steering wheel, casting doubt on the fact that Woods’ injuries were sustained during the crash.

Talk-show host Larry King’s company, Larry King Enterprises, and his driver and are being sued over a fender bender that happened in November 2008, reports TMZ. The two plaintiffs are suing for in excess of $50,000 in damages for injuries they allegedly suffered in the accident.
“This is a completely frivolous and fraudulent lawsuit,” said King’s wife, Shawn Southwick. “There was zero damage to both cars. Our driver has an excellent record and is extremely responsible. At the time of the incident, the people got out of the car, and they were completely fine. Our driver checked to see if they were okay. We have witnesses who will confirm that. They exchanged insurance information, and as soon as they saw Larry King Enterprises, they decided to go for what they assumed are deep pockets. These people went to an ambulance chaser for an attorney, and as though they were filling out a form to get the maximum amount of money they could, checked off every box possible. In return, they will be on the receiving end of a big, fat lawsuit.”
A court date is scheduled for December.
