Tiger Woods transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles

Tiger Woods has been transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles following the single-vehicle crash Tuesday that left him with serious leg injuries, according to a statement released Thursday.

Dr. Anish Mahajan said Woods, 45, was moved from Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, which is located about 18 miles south of downtown Los Angeles, "for continuing orthopedic care and recovery."

Woods was transferred on Wednesday night, two sources told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne. Cedars-Sinai is approximately 21 miles north of Harbor-UCLA.

"On behalf of our staff, it was an honor to provide orthopaedic trauma care to one of our generation's greatest athletes," Mahajan said in the statement.
