Tiger Woods arrested at crash scene on suspicion of DUI, sheriff says

On Friday, professional golfer Tiger Woods was arrested for driving under the influence following a rollover crash near his home in Jupiter Island, Florida.
According to Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek, Woods' Land Rover clipped a pickup truck's trailer while overtaking on a two-lane road with a 30 mph speed limit, causing the vehicle to roll onto its side.
Woods blew 0.0 on a breathalyzer test but refused a urinalysis, leading to misdemeanor charges of DUI, property damage, and refusal to submit to a lawful test.
Florida law mandates an eight-hour jail detention for DUI suspects, and Woods' attendance at the Masters tournament starting April 9 remains uncertain following the arrest.
This incident compounds a history of prior driving-related issues, including crashes in 2009, 2017, and February 2021, while Woods recovers from back surgery and an Achilles tendon rupture.
