| 0:00.0 | And we're back with the breaking news. Legendary golfer Tiger Woods is in the hospital |
| 0:05.4 | after a serious car accident. Los Angeles County law enforcement tells CNN that his car |
| 0:09.8 | as SUV was the only vehicle involved in this roll over crash. I want to bring in CNN's |
| 0:14.4 | Josh Campbell, who's just arrived at the hospital in Los Angeles for Tiger Woods is right |
| 0:20.1 | now. And as far as we know is still in surgery, Josh, what can you tell us? |
| 0:23.6 | That's right. We're told that authorities got a call, Jake, just after seven o'clock |
| 0:28.4 | here local time of a single vehicle roll over accident. This was down in the South Bay |
| 0:33.1 | area here in Los Angeles near Rancho Palace Verde. He was later identified the person driving |

| 1:14.6 | down in the southern area. There's an investigation into the cause of this accident. Authorities |
| 1:19.2 | don't know whether this was a human error, whether this was due to weather. That's all part |
| 1:24.5 | of their ongoing accident crash investigation that is underway. As that continues about eight |
