That’s super close to where the crash was. yea you can, i didn't think about this angle and if he was going north it's in that general direction. i guess he was staying up there in RPV after the tournament, curious why up there since Riviera is nowhere near there. it's not exactly a staycation hot spot, there's nothing to do there though it is a upper scale neighborhood.

ETA: Thought I'd identified the spot at Hawthorne near Palos Verdes Dr N (under all the phone lines overhead) but a different pic just posted isn't that spot.

-jb- 1,027 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) 3 minutes ago, tri-man 47 said: Is this the spot (I read it was at Hawthorne near Palos Verdes Dr N, which is this intersection)? I saw the pic from overhead with all the wires, and this looks like the only spot anywhere near the intersection that has a drop below the wires. The view here looking at the street light is a south view. If he was heading north, they have an emergency exit lane due to the downslope and turn. Either the unfamiliar slope, possible fog, or unexpected traffic backed up at the light could have caused him to veer left, cross through this intersection, and go through the white fence. Sucks to hear about this. up the hill from there. roughly here: https://goo.gl/maps/Kud9Z2o1zmmLciS86 he allegedly was headed north, coming down the hill. pretty easy to pick up speed. both Hawthorne and Crenshaw (steeper, curvier) have bail out lanes filled with gravel.

facook 5,596 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Of course speculation out there re: substances (and I'll admit the thought crossed my mind as well). He didn't seem high on Sunday to me, just super hung over. And super lucid and happy in the pics and videos from yesterday. So I sincerely hope it's maybe a case of falling asleep at the wheel or something other unrelated to substance use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rodrigo Duterte 821 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) We'll see, but it wasn't weather or traffic or any of that. That road is as easy as it gets. He was either having fun gunning it down and just F'd up, or he overdid it with some partying and/or meds that carried over into Tuesday morning and zombied the Genesis. All nighter at Terranea, imo. He's human. Here's to another miracle comeback! Edited February 24 by Rodrigo Duterte Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GroveDiesel 9,332 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Or, he could have just been late for something and was driving way too fast to try to make up for it. TMZ reported that someone saw him leaving the hotel and that another vehicle had him blocked in for a while and that Woods seemed agitated. He then reportedly drove out of the hotel at a high speed almost hitting someone on the way out. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ministry of Pain 5,720 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 What would a full time driver cost yearly for Tiger? I bet a lot less than 2 compound fractures and a shattered ankle, folks he might be done playing Golf at this point. Cost him tens of millions vs I'll say $100k-$200k tops for the year, unbelievable. I thought after we found him off Military here in Jupiter that would be the end of it but he keeps getting in car accidents. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
