Tiger Woods is encountering a PR nightmare. On Friday night around 2:30 AM Woods was involved in an car accident. Woods reportedly backed his SUV into a tree and fire hydrant. The accident led to cuts around Woods mouth and loss of consciousness.
Since the accident occurred Woods has kept very quiet refusing to meet with police officers and discuss the cause of the accident. The only comment that was made was a brief statement posted on his website which stated that he was solely responsible for the accident and any rumors or speculation surrounding what happened or family member involvement was irresponsible.
News flash Tiger crashing your SUV into a tree and fire hydrant is a little irresponsible especially for a Stanford grad. Nothing is more unsettling to people than to make no comment. It leads the public to assume one of two things, you are either lying or covering up what really happened. Everyone makes mistakes. Most people get and except that. So when you are a prominent public figure that makes millions and in Tiger's case actually billions off of your image it is in your best interest to come clean and tell the truth.
I don't care what the cause of the accident was. I don't care if it was an argument with his wife, or if he was intoxicated or whatever I would just like to know what really happened. If a simple honest statement is made I will accept it and move on and so will almost everyone else. If you leave it to speculation that is exactly what you will get.
