(LOS ANGELES) Authorities on Wednesday will release the findings of the rollover car crash that left Tiger Woods seriously injured.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva is holding a press conference at 1 p.m. ET to discuss the golfing great’s Feb. 23 accident in Southern California.
Villanueva said last month that a cause was determined and the investigation had concluded.
“We have reached out to Tiger Woods and his personnel,” Villanueva said. “There’s some privacy issues on releasing information on the investigation so we’re going to ask them if they waive the privacy and then we will be able to do a full release.”

Authorities say Tiger Woods was speeding when he crashed an SUV in Southern California less than two months ago, leaving him seriously injured.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva says the golf superstar was driving 84 to 87 mph on a downhill stretch of road outside Los Angeles that had a speed limit of 45 mph.
The stretch of road is known for wrecks and drivers hitting speeds so high that there is an emergency exit for runaway vehicles just beyond where Woods crashed.
Villanueva blamed the Feb. 23 crash solely on excessive speed and Woods’ loss of control behind the wheel.
