Jet Linked to Tiger Woods Lands in Switzerland After DUI Arrest

Court‑approved travel for inpatient care signals a pivot from competition to treatment.

Overview

  • A private jet associated with Woods landed in Zurich on Friday, April 3, pointing to a likely rehab destination after a judge cleared overseas treatment, though reports said it was unclear if he was on board.
  • Woods has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor driving under the influence, property damage and refusal-to-test charges from his March 27 rollover, and he said he is stepping away to seek inpatient care.
  • Police bodycam and affidavits describe lethargic movements, dilated pupils and difficulty with field tests, note two hydrocodone pills found in his pocket, record a 0.00 breath test and document his refusal to provide a urine sample.
  • The other driver, Jeromy Bullard, has hired attorney Jason Fagnano, a move that could lead to civil claims over damage to his truck and trailer.
  • Golf leaders voiced concern and criticism, with Jack Nicklaus urging help for Woods and Nick Faldo calling for accountability and a firmer response than the PGA Tour’s supportive statement.
