OCOEE, Fla. (AP) - A hospital spokesman says Tiger Woods' mother-in-law is in stable condition after an early morning 911 call from his home.
Health Central Hospital spokesman Dan Yates says Barbro Holmberg was admitted early Tuesday suffering from stomach pain.
She is the mother of Woods' wife, Elin.
Health Central is the same hospital where Woods was treated after he crashed his sport utility vehicle outside his home last month.
Media attention has been focused on the world's No. 1 golfer since he hit a hydrant and a tree around 2:25 a.m. on the Friday after Thanksgiving.

WINDERMERE, Fla. (AP) - A fire department spokeswoman in Florida won't confirm that the 911 call that came in this morning was placed from Tiger Woods' home.
The call did come from the same block as the Woods home in the Orlando area -- and medics who responded took an adult patient to the hospital.
The spokeswoman won't confirm that the patient was a woman.
The patient was taken to the same hospital where Woods was treated after he crashed his SUV outside his home last month.
The accident -- and Woods' refusal to answer questions about it -- have fueled speculation about a possible dispute between him and his wife, Elin.
Last week, Woods issued a statement saying he had let his family down with "transgressions" that he regretted, but he offered no details.
A police report on last week's crash, released yesterday, showed that a Florida trooper suspected that Woods was driving under the influence, and tried to get a subpoena for the golfer's blood results from the hospital -- but prosecutors rejected the request.
