The 15-time major champion was taken into custody Friday afternoon in Martin County, Florida after he t-boned another vehicle, sending his Range Rover onto its side.<\/p>\n
The crash unfolded just before 2 p.m. near the Hobe Sound Yacht Club, just minutes from his multimillion-dollar, 12-acre oceanfront estate.<\/p>\n
Authorities say Woods sped up to try to pass a truck hauling a pressure cleaner when he plowed into it.<\/p>\n
Photos from the scene show Woods\u2019 black SUV tipped onto its side as authorities and a flatbed tow truck surrounded the wreck.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\u201cDUI investigators came to the scene here, and Mr. Woods did exemplify signs of impairment. They did several tests on him. Of course, he did explain the injuries and the surgeries that he had. We did take that into account, but they did do some in-depth roadside tests,\u201d Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said.<\/p>\n
Deputies said Woods showed signs of impairment at the scene. A breath test later showed no alcohol in his system, shifting attention to whether another substance may have been involved.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe really weren\u2019t suspicious of alcohol being involved in this case, and that proved to be true at the jail. \u2026 But when it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused. And, so, he\u2019s been charged with DUI, with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test,\u201d Budensiek added.<\/p>\n
Woods now faces misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence, property damage, and refusal to submit to a lawful test.<\/p>\n

The golf legend was alone in the SUV at the time of the crash and was not hurt. He was able to crawl out after the vehicle flipped.<\/p>\n
The incident adds to a pattern of past issues behind the wheel. In 2017, Woods was arrested after being found asleep in his car and later said he had been taking prescription medications following back surgery. In 2021, he was in another serious crash that left him with major leg injuries and sidelined him for a full year.<\/p>\n
Friday\u2019s crash also comes just days after Woods returned to competitive golf, raising fresh concerns about his condition off the course.<\/p>\n
Woods is dating Vanessa Trump, the former daughter-in-law of President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
President Trump commented on the situation, calling Woods a close friend.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel so badly,\u201d Trump said. \u201cHe\u2019s an amazing person, amazing man, but some difficulty.\u201d<\/p>\n
Woods has not publicly commented on the crash or his arrest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
