UPDATE: The woman who was taken to the hospital by ambulance has been identified as Barbro Holmberg, 57, of Sweden. She is Elin Nordegren's mother and Tiger Woods' mother-in-law. Contrary to earlier reports, she has not been released from the hospital, she remains hospitalized in stable condition with security posted at the door of her private hospital room. She was reportedly taken to the hospital due to abdominal pains.
A woman described as a middle-aged blonde was rushed from the home of Tiger Woods by ambulance at 2:36 this morning. A black Escalade driven by a woman who appeared to be Elin Nordegren arrived at the hospital quickly afterwords. Elin's mother and twin sister are rumored to be staying with her. Many news outlets have reported that the woman was on advanced life support, however, Fox News is reporting that she has already been released.
More information has come forward regarding the night of the accident. According to the subpoena request obtained by TMZ Elin Woods claimed that Tiger was drinking the day of the accident and had prescriptions for vicodin and ambien. When officers arrived Tiger was lying in the street snoring after Elin removed him from the vehicle. He has described by officers as being incoherent and drifting in and out of consciousness at the scene. Tiger refused to give a blood sample to police and their request for a subpoena was unsuccessful. TMZ is claiming that Tiger was admitted to the hospital following the accident as an OD. The police only fined Tiger $164 for careless driving and gave him four points against his license after the single car accident in which he hit a fire hydrant and a tree while attempting to leave his property.
The day before the accident the National Enquirer broke a story claiming that Tiger was having an affair. This was believed to be the cause of the alleged argument that caused Tiger to flee in the middle of the night without so much as putting on his shoes. A widely publicized voice mail has been released where Tiger asks his alleged mistress to remove her name from her voicemail because his wife has looked through his phone and may be calling seems to confirm this tension between the couple. Tiger has denied any argument. Since the accident there have been no fewer than 10 women claiming to also have had affairs with Tiger Woods.
