The reported accident comes after Woods, 50, returned to competitive action for the first time in over a year on the final night of play in the indoor TGL competition on Tuesday.

The 15-time major winner said afterwards that he hoped he would be fit enough to play at the Masters next month.

Woods underwent emergency surgery after suffering multiple leg injuries following a serious car accident in February 2021.

He was sidelined for 15 months and his appearances since have been sporadic due to numerous other injury setbacks.
