His publicist said he was hit by accident by a cameraman. Tiger Woods refused to comment on it.
His tooth is now fixed and he has spoken out about it and the media said he was "sticking to the camera man story.
Instead of saying, "The camera man's equipment hit me", plainly, here is his statement:
“The photographer changed positions, and I got hit. It was an accident. There was blood everywhere. That didn’t feel very good.
Modal Triggertwo different podiums in skiing. When they come down from the run, the top three are always there end of the run. After every race is completed, then they move that up on the hill so all the photographers can do their deal and champagne and whatever it is out there in the middle of the run.
Lindsey had finished up. I walked up to the top. I had my mask on so no one knew who I was, trying to blend in, because there is not a lot of brown dudes at ski races, OK? Yeah, hey, we blend in, wouldn’t we? So that was the whole idea of why I wore the mask, and then I came up above.
I was looking down, and all the camera guys are below me on their knees or moving all around, trying to get a picture because she’s hugging people, saying congratulations to the other racers as they are coming down. Some already finished, some are there already in the changing area. Dude with a video camera on his shoulder, right in front of me, kneeling, stood up and turned and caught me square on the mouth. He chipped that [tooth], cracked the other one.
And so then, you know, I’m trying to keep this thing so the blood is not all over the place, and luckily he hit the one I had the root canal on. That’s the one that chipped. But the other one had to be fixed as well, because it had cracks all through it.’’
