Tiger Woods Arrested for DUI After Rollover Car Crash: Everything We Know

On Friday, Tiger Woods was involved in a two-car rollover crash in Jupiter Island, Florida, just after 2 p.m. ET. At the time, CBS 12 News reported that one individual was stable, while the other refused to go to the hospital, and no injuries were sustained.

At 5 p.m. ET, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office held a press conference and revealed Tiger had been arrested for a DUI. His mugshot was subsequently released Friday night. Just before 11:30 p.m. ET, Tiger was seen leaving Martin County Jail.

At the scene, police said the 15-time major champion appeared impaired and lethargic. While police say Tiger cooperated with the breathalyzer test—he blew .000—once he arrived at the jail, he refused to give a urine sample, something Florida statutes allow. Florida statute 316.192 reads:

The person shall be told that his or her failure to submit to any lawful test of his or her urine will result in the suspension of the person’s privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period of 1 year for the first refusal, or for a period of 18 months if the driving privilege of such person has been previously suspended or if he or she has previously been fined under s. 327.35215 as a result of a refusal to submit to a test or tests required under this chapter or chapter 327, and shall also be told that if he or she refuses to submit to a lawful test of his or her urine, he or she commits a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083, or a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083, if his or her driving privilege has been previously suspended or if he or she has previously been fined under s. 327.35215 for a prior refusal to submit to a lawful test of his or her breath, urine, or blood as required under this chapter or chapter 327, in addition to any other penalties provided by law. The refusal to submit to a urine test upon the request of a law enforcement officer as provided in this section is admissible into evidence in any criminal proceeding.

He’d remain in jail for a minimum of eight hours due Florida statute 316.193. According to the sheriff's office, he's been charged with DUI and property damage.

In February of 2021, Tiger was involved in a single-car crash that nearly resulted in him losing his right leg. Of course, his record of vehicle collisions didn’t begin just five years ago.

Earlier this week, Tiger played for Jupiter Links in the TGL Finals and remained adamant that he was trying to play in the Masters. That, all of a sudden, feels insignificant.
