Tiger Woods entered a written plea of not guilty Tuesday in a Florida court on a charge of driving under the influence, hours after a sheriff’s report revealed he had hydrocodone pills in his pocket and showed signs of impairment at the scene of a crash last week.

In a post on the social media platform X, Woods said he will step away from golf and seek treatment. “This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery,” he wrote.

The online court docket for Martin County, Florida, showed Woods waived his appearance at an arraignment hearing next month.

According to the arrest report released by the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, Woods had bloodshot, glassy eyes and dilated pupils when interviewed at the crash scene. His movements were slow and lethargic, he was sweating, and he told deputies he had taken prescription medication earlier that morning. Woods said he had been looking at his phone and fiddling with the radio before he clipped a truck in front of him.

Deputies found two white pills in his pocket, later identified as hydrocodone, an opioid used to treat pain. When asked if he took any prescription medications, Woods replied, “I take a few.”

Woods, 50, was traveling at high speeds on a beachside residential road on Jupiter Island when his Land Rover clipped a truck and rolled onto its side. The truck sustained $5,000 in damage. The truck driver and another person helped Woods out of his vehicle; neither Woods nor the truck driver were injured.

During a field sobriety test, deputies noted Woods was limping and wore a compression sock over his right knee. He explained he had undergone seven back surgeries and over 20 leg operations, causing his ankle to seize up while walking. Woods hiccupped during questioning and continuously moved his head during one of the tests, requiring deputies to instruct him several times to keep his head straight. “Based on my observations of Woods, how he performed the exercises and based on my training, knowledge, and experience, I believed that Woods normal faculties were impaired, and he was unable to safely operate the motor vehicle,” the deputy wrote.

Woods agreed to a Breathalyzer test that showed no alcohol, but he refused a urine test. He was arrested and released on bail eight hours later.

Woods’ defense attorney, Douglas Duncan, did not respond to requests for comment. His agent at Excel Sports, Mark Steinberg, also has not commented.
