Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said Woods was trying to overtake a pressure cleaner truck at a high rate of speed when he clipped the back end of the truck and rolled over his Land Rover.<\/p>\n
Woods was able to crawl out of the passenger door of the Land Rover and wasn’t injured, Budensiek said. The driver of the truck also wasn’t injured.<\/p>\n
But when authorities arrived, Woods appeared to be impaired, Budensiek said. <\/p>\n

“They believe from on scene that he was not impaired on alcohol, they believe that it was some type of medication or drug,” Budensiek said. “He was lethargic on scene, but that we believe was because of what he was intoxicated on.”<\/p>\n
Woods took a breathalyzer test that didn’t detect alcohol but refused to give a urine sample, the sheriff said.<\/p>\n
“We will never get definitive results as to what he was impaired on at the time of the crash,” Budensiek said.<\/p>\n
Woods was alone in the vehicle, and no drugs or medication were found inside, Budensiek said.<\/p>\n

The sheriff said that Woods was cooperative but “not trying to incriminate himself” and added that he “was careful in what he said and didn’t say.”<\/p>\n
The sheriff said Woods was charged for refusing to take the test and DUI with property damage, which are both misdemeanor charges. <\/p>\n
President Donald Trump, whose former daughter-in-law is dating Tiger Woods, was asked about the golfer when he landed in Miami on Friday afternoon for an investment summit.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel so badly. He\u2019s got some difficulty,\u201d Trump said. \u201cVery close friend of mine. He\u2019s an amazing person. Amazing man. But, some difficulty.\u201d<\/p>\n
Woods, 50, is the most accomplished professional golfer of his generation but has been hampered by injuries in recent years and underwent a seventh back surgery last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n This was the fourth time\u00a0Woods has been involved in a car crash<\/a>. He was seriously injured in a car crash in February 2021 that shattered his right leg and ankle, which Woods has said nearly led to a decision to amputate.<\/p>\n
