Veteran golfer, Tiger Woods, has been involved in a car crash amid speculation about his return to PGA Tour starting next month.

Reports noted the accident occurred near 281 Beach Road on Jupiter Island in Florida on Friday, with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office stating authorities are investigating the case. 

According to CBS station WPEC, the incident was a two car crash, with one vehicle rolling over. One person was stable, while the other reportedly refused to go to hospital.

The condition of Mr Woods remains unclear. 

In 2021, he was left with significant leg injuries after his vehicle rolled over several times in a one-car crash outside of Los Angeles. 

Mr Woods had a rod placed in a tibia as well as screws and pins inserted in his foot and ankle during emergency surgery. 

He last competed on the PGA Tour in July 2024 but there were reports that he had been weighing whether to return to the PGA Tour at the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club starting on April 9.
