It gets better: Tiger Woods' wife told troopers he was drinking before crash Tiger Woods was drinking before he wrecked his SUV two weeks ago, a witness told a Florida Highway Patrol trooper. That witness was the same person who pulled Woods from his damaged truck, a document released this afternoon states. Elin Nordegren Woods, Tiger Woods' wife, told Windermere police that she dragged the injured golfer from his Cadillac Escalade about 2:25 a.m. Nov. 27 with the help of a golf club. The document does not give the witness' identity, and a spokeswoman for FHP said she cold not immediately confirm who gave investigators that information. That same person told troopers the champion golfer was prescribed Ambien and Vicodin, the document states. This new information was included in a one-page, written request by FHP Trooper Joshua A. Evans to the Orange-Osceola State Attorney's Office. He asked for prosecutors' help getting a subpoena for "medical blood results" in the Woods case. Assistant State Attorney Steve Foster, who heads the state attorney's intake division, denied the request Nov. 30. "Insufficient information provided to lawfully issue subpoena," Foster wrote. Troopers wanted the blood results because they suspected Tiger Woods of "driving under the influence with property damage," the request said. "A witness stated that the driver had consumed alcohol earlier in the day and the same witness removed the driver from the vehicle after the collision. Also, the same witness stated that the driver was prescribed medication (Ambien and Vicatin [sic]). Impairment of the driver is also suspected due to the careless driving that resulted in the traffic crash," the request states. It's standard procedure for an investigator to file a written request to prosecutors for help obtaining a subpoena. If prosecutors deny the request, no subpoena is sought." How long before we find out his wife was chasing him with the club?
