JUPITER ISLAND, Fla. — Tiger Woods was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after his Land Rover rolled over in a two-vehicle crash on a residential road here on Friday afternoon, authorities said.
The incident occurred around 2 p.m. on the 200 block of Beach Road when Woods, driving at high speed, attempted to pass a pickup truck pulling a trailer. His vehicle clipped the back of the trailer, causing the Land Rover to roll onto its side. Neither Woods nor the other driver was injured, and no other passengers were involved. Woods crawled out of the vehicle before authorities arrived.
Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said deputies observed signs of impairment at the scene. Woods registered 0.00 on a breathalyzer test but refused a urinalysis. He was charged with misdemeanor DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. Woods was booked into the Martin County Jail and released later Friday evening.
The crash marks the second DUI arrest for the 50-year-old golfer. In 2017, he was arrested in Palm Beach County after being found asleep behind the wheel of his Mercedes. Woods has also been involved in a serious single-vehicle rollover crash in Los Angeles in February 2021 that caused significant injuries to his right leg.
Woods has been recovering from multiple health issues in recent years, including back surgery in October 2025 and a ruptured Achilles tendon in March 2025. He made his first competitive appearance in more than a year earlier this week at the TGL finals in Palm Beach Gardens.
As of Saturday, Woods had not issued a public statement regarding the incident. The Martin County Sheriff’s Office continued its investigation into the crash. Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The case remains pending in Martin County court.
