Tiger Woods breaks months-long silence with patriotic Memorial Day message, salute to late father
Woods returned to social media after a six-week treatment stay abroad, thanking service members and honoring his father, Earl Woods, who died in 2006.
- On Memorial Day, Tiger Woods broke his nearly two-month silence with a patriotic tribute to his late father, Earl Woods, honoring his U.S. Army Special Forces service, two Vietnam tours, and 20 years of military commitment.
- Woods' public silence followed his arrest on March 27 after crashing his vehicle near his Florida home, where police found opioids; he announced on March 31 he was stepping away for treatment and received court permission April 1 to travel abroad.
- Woods cleared 0.00 on both breathalyzer samples but faced charges for refusing a urine test; the 82-time PGA Tour winner had undergone his seventh back surgery in October before the arrest derailed his comeback attempt.
- Vanessa Trump, Woods' girlfriend and former daughter-in-law of President Donald Trump, disclosed a breast cancer diagnosis just days ago on Instagram, calling Woods her "strength" after undergoing a medical procedure earlier this week.
- Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk confirmed Woods will retain his spot on the 2027 staff despite legal challenges, though Woods has not competed since the 2024 Open Championship in Scotland and returned to Switzerland on Sunday to continue rehabilitation.
