Overview
- Tiger Woods will not play the Masters this week, leaving Augusta National without its five-time champion.
- Deputies arrested Woods after a March 27 rollover near his Jupiter Island home, where they reported a 0.00 breath test, a refused urine test, and two hydrocodone pills in his pocket.
- He has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor counts that include DUI, refusal to submit to testing, and property damage, and he also received a careless-driving citation.
- Woods announced he is stepping away to seek treatment, and reporting indicates he is expected to enter inpatient care outside the United States.
- His absence extends a difficult run after a 2025 Achilles tear and an October 2025 back surgery, which had already cast doubt on his ability to compete this spring.
