Overview
Tiger Woods, 50, said on March 31, 2026, he will step away to seek treatment after being arrested following a rollover crash in Jupiter Island, Florida.
Authorities said Woods' Land Rover clipped a truck's trailer as the truck turned into a driveway and rolled onto its side, and deputies found two hydrocodone pills in his pocket.
Woods pleaded not guilty and waived his in-person arraignment, and he is charged with driving under the influence with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test, according to court documents.
Deputies said the truck had $5,000 in damage, Woods had bloodshot, extremely dilated pupils and showed lethargic movement, and he told deputies he had undergone seven back surgeries and over 20 leg operations.
Woods is scheduled for arraignment April 23 and said he is stepping away to seek treatment, and the PGA Tour said it supports his focus on health and well-being.
Analysis
Center-leaning sources report this incident in a largely neutral, factual manner: they attribute descriptive, evaluative details (bloodshot eyes, 'sweating profusely') to the probable cause affidavit, present Woods' treatment statement and not-guilty plea, include context (past crash, hydrocodone found) and cite both officials' observations and a supportive Trump quote.
