Tiger Woods Arrested in Florida After Crash on Suspicion of DUI

The case raises fresh doubts about his planned Masters comeback.

Overview

  • Police say Tiger Woods crashed an SUV on Jupiter Island, got out without serious injury, and was taken into custody on suspicion of driving under the influence.
  • Martin County authorities charged him with DUI, property damage, and refusal to submit to a test.
  • Officials reported a negative breathalyzer for alcohol and said he refused to provide a urine sample, which is the test police use to check for drugs.
  • Local NBC affiliate WPTV aired images showing the SUV on its side, and police announced a news briefing following the initial reports.
  • Woods has not played since July 2024 and had been aiming for the Masters in April, a plan now in doubt given the crash and the new charges.
