Tiger Woods Arrested for DUI, Released on Bail After Rollover Crash

Tiger Woods, the renowned golfer, was arrested on Friday on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI) after his Land Rover was involved in a rollover crash on a residential road in Florida. According to Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek, Woods was traveling at high speeds when his vehicle clipped a truck, causing it to roll onto its side.

Following the crash, Woods showed signs of impairment and was described as lethargic by the sheriff. Although a Breathalyser test showed no signs of alcohol, Woods refused a urine test, leading to his arrest. He was booked at the county jail and released on bail eight hours later, the minimum allowed under state law.

This incident marks the second time Woods has been arrested for a DUI, with the previous instance occurring in 2017 when he was found asleep behind the wheel of his car. He pleaded guilty to reckless driving in that case. Additionally, this is Woods' fourth car crash, with the most recent one occurring in February 2021, resulting in multiple leg and ankle injuries.

Woods has been working his way back to golf after undergoing multiple back surgeries and recently rupturing his Achilles tendon. His participation in the upcoming Masters tournament, which starts on April 9, remains uncertain. Woods was also set to unveil a golf course project in Augusta, Georgia, on April 5.
