Tiger Woods has been released on bail following his arrest on charges of driving under the influence after rolling his car in a crash in Florida.
The Martin County Sheriff's Office stated that the 15-time major champion also faced charges for property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test.
Woods, 50, rolled his Land Rover after clipping a truck in Jupiter Island. No injuries were reported, but Sheriff John Budensiek mentioned that officers suspected Woods may have been impaired by an unknown substance.
After crawling out of the passenger door, Woods passed a breathalyzer test but refused a urine test. He was held in jail for eight hours before being released on bail.
Budensiek revealed that the crash happened as Woods was attempting to overtake a pressure cleaner truck at a 'high rate of speed.' Although initial investigations did not suspect alcohol involvement, they did note signs of impairment.
Woods's arrest raises concerns about his planned participation in the upcoming Masters tournament, especially as he has been recovering from significant injuries from previous accidents.
The charges against Woods are misdemeanors. Golf's world watches closely as he navigates this latest incident.
