Woods regained consciousness when he was ejected through the front windshield of his SUV after crashing on a road slope in the Rancho Palos Verids.
Police described the crash as “purely an accident” and dismissed criminal charges against Woods, which officials said was cool.

“He doesn’t want his career to end like this,” the 45-year-old athlete said Wednesday. “So if there is no way that he can continue playing golf, he will.”
