Woods on security-guard incident on No. 14: 'Accidents happen'

AUGUSTA, Ga. – Tiger Woods narrowly avoided injury Friday at the Masters.

After playing his second shot from the trees on the 14th hole, Woods walked back toward the fairway but was nearly taken out by a Georgia Bureau of Investigations special agent, who slipped in the mud and appeared to clip Woods’ right foot.

Woods grimaced immediately afterward and hobbled away, but he said he was not affected by the freak accident.
