A day earlier, Tiger Woods’ car crash and subsequent arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence made global headlines.
The arrest of the 15-time major gold winner sparked concern among his huge fan base and close associates and friends.
The golf icon’s teammate Kevin Kisner is one of those who has expressed his concern for the sports legend.
Speaking with NBC, the 42-year-old poured his heart out on the incident and revealed that Wood had been working hard for some time to make a comeback at the US Senior Open and possibly the Masters later on.
However, now the dream of a great comeback has been shattered.
“What’s very upsetting is,” says Starr, “he’s been really working hard on his game, trying to practice and get back in shape. He signed up for the US Senior Open yesterday.”
“He’s coming back and trying to do anything he can to help our TGL team get prepared and hopefully try to play the Masters.”
“I think, Brad, it’s a really unfortunate incident; the only positive is that no one was injured in this incident and we can all move forward and hopefully help him get better.”
Kisner and Woods had played in the TGL Final three days before the accident at Jupiter Links – a golf club founded by the latter.
Meanwhile, a shocking car accident occurred on a Florida road as Woods was reportedly driving the wrong way before his vehicle collided with another vehicle, causing his SUV to overturn.
Luckily, Woods is safe. But after the heart-stopping moment, police arrived at the scene and asked for a urine test – to find out if he was under the influence of any substance – which the golf icon refused twice.
This led officers to handcuff him, suspecting he might be driving under the influence, and also charged him with damage to property and refusing to comply with authority.
