Overview
- Woods, 50, crashed Friday on Jupiter Island, left his SUV on its side, and was arrested by Martin County deputies, with no serious injuries reported.
- Deputies said a breath test was negative, and he refused a urine sample, leading to charges of driving under the influence, property damage, and refusal to submit to a test.
- Sheriff John Budensiek said Woods showed signs of impairment, and on-scene drug specialists suspected medication or drugs rather than alcohol.
- Local officials described a failed pass of a vehicle towing a trailer on a narrow 30 mph road that led to contact and his SUV tipping over.
- The investigation now puts his possible start at the Masters on April 9–12 in doubt after back surgery in October and a layoff since July 2024.
