Golfer Tiger Woods has been left seriously injured following a Friday morning car crash in Florida.

The 33 year old reportedly struck a fire hydrant after pulling out of his driveway in Isleworth - and then drove into a tree on a neighbour's lawn.

Woods was taken to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee in a serious condition, according to Florida Highway Patrol reports. No other details have been released.

But hospital staff insisted Woods was no longer a patient there on Friday afternoon.

Reports suggest the accident is under investigation and charges are pending.
