CNN Sports Anchor Andy Scholes now says that he is sorry for comments that he made as news of Tiger Woods car crash was breaking.

'Stunned, I guess, but not entirely surprised by what we're seeing here,' Scholes told anchor Brianna Keilar during the breaking news segment announcing Woods' crash.

'Tiger, back in 2017, was found by police pulled over to the side of the road, asleep in his car. 

'He had said he had taken a lot of painkillers at that time because we all know Tiger has undergone a lot of surgeries over the years and painkillers have become a part of his life.'

Scholes faced a backlash on social media for bringing up Woods' past substance abuse while the extent of the sports star's injuries were still unclear.

Viewers took Scholes to task for his comments.

Scholes tried to walk back what he said, claiming he didn’t mean it “to come out that way.”

What way did he mean it to come out? Because it sure sounded like Scholes was accusing Woods of driving while impaired despite the fact that so far there is no evidence of that.
