Bethpage - Tiger Woods faces a lawsuit from the parents of a staffer at his Florida restaurant who died in a drink driving accident after allegedly being overserved alcohol, TMZ reported on Monday.
The parents of Nicholas Immesberger, who died last December at age 24, filed the lawsuit saying their son had worked as a bartender at The Woods in Jupiter, Florida, and knew the golf star personally, the celebrity website reported.
The news broke hours after Woods played his opening practice round for the 101st PGA Championship, the year's second major golf tournament which starts Thursday at Bethpage Black on Long Island in New York.
Woods snapped an 11-year major win drought by winning the Masters last month and seeks his 16th career major title this week. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom last week at a White House ceremony.

The restaurant's manager is Erica Herman, who is Woods's girlfriend and, according to TMZ, recruited Immesberger to the restaurant.
According to TMZ, Immesberger finished his shift on December 10 but stayed at The Woods to drink at the restaurant and was allegedly served to the point of "severe intoxication" before being sent out to his car.
Immesberger lost control of his car that evening while driving home and crashed, dying in the accident, according to the report, which also said Immesberger had a blood alcohol level of .256, more than three times the legal limit.
The family claims Woods and Herman knew Immesberger had a habitual problem with alcohol but allowed him to be served anyway.
The lawsuit alleges Woods and Herman had been drinking with Immesberger just days before the crash and "reasonably should have known" he was a "habitual drunkard," according to TMZ.
Immesberger's parents sued Woods directly claiming he "was directly responsible for ensuring that his employees and management ... were not over serving its employees/customers," according to the report.
The lawsuit was filed in Palm Beach County, Florida. It seeks medical costs and funeral damages plus other "appropriate damages."

WTF, what happened to personal accountability? Nobody sent the drunk to his car, he went to his car. He himself decided to drink and drive.

Fcked up dumb americans at it again.
 
So they hired someone to be a bar tender knowing that he had an habitual issue with alcohol..?
 
I'm sorry for their loss but this is nothing more than a flagrant attempt at a payout. I hope the judge treats it with the contempt it deserves.
 
How did he drive with the ropes they used to tie him down and force him to drink.

Typical merica
 
Wat n pot kak.

Over serving someone, I've never heard such a ludicrous thing being said. These Americans love to sue people though and I'd be willing to bet that if they stoped serving him they'd be sued for that as well, not doing their duty as a server or whatever. They really should spend their time on more important things though, like inventing a new type of cheese because as we know the Americans only really have one type of cheese, it's called cheese.
