Tiger Woods was arrested Friday on a DUI charge after his Land Rover struck a pressure cleaning truck and overturned on Jupiter Island, Florida. He was released on bail after spending eight hours in the Martin County jail. Sheriff John Budensiek said Woods appeared lethargic and agreed to a breathalyzer test that showed “triple zeroes” for alcohol, but refused a urine test, meaning officials will never get “definitive results” about what caused the impairment.

The arrest comes at a critical juncture for Woods, who turned 50 last year and was trying to get in shape for the Masters on April 9-12. “This body, it doesn’t recover like it did when it was 24, 25,” he said earlier this week. He was also days away from a decision on whether to serve as the next U.S. Ryder Cup captain for the 2027 matches in Ireland. Two PGA of America officials did not immediately return calls seeking comment. The PGA of America already faces scrutiny over fan behavior at Bethpage Park last September, and one source said the organization has a backup plan of four potential candidates if Woods declines or if they move on.

Woods is also scheduled to appear April 5 in Augusta, Georgia, with Masters chairman Fred Ridley to celebrate a project at “The Patch” municipal golf course. He remains chairman of the Future Competition Committee reshaping the PGA Tour model. Tour CEO Brian Rolapp predicted meaningful progress this summer. The PGA Tour declined to comment on the arrest.

This is Woods’ second arrest in nine years and his fourth car crash since 2009. In 2017, he was found asleep behind the wheel with the engine running, later attributing it to a mix of medication. Toxicology then showed marijuana, painkillers, a sleep drug and an anti-anxiety drug. His most serious crash was in February 2021, when his SUV was going 84-87 mph in a 45 mph zone, rolled down a hill and hit a tree. He suffered extensive leg and ankle injuries and later said amputation was considered.

Woods has played only 11 tournaments in five years since that crash, finishing no closer than 16 shots of the winner in the four times he completed 72 holes. He shares the PGA Tour record with 82 wins. Despite his reduced play, he remains a major draw; his TGL league finals appearance Tuesday drew nearly 1 million viewers.

“Had there been somebody moving in the opposite direction, we would not be having a conversation saying there were no injuries,” Budensiek said. “This could’ve been a lot worse.”
