Tiger Woods mugshot released after Florida car crash, DUI arrest



Tiger Woods’ mugshot has been released following the pro golfer’s DUI arrest in Jupiter Island, Fla., on Friday.

The athlete appeared to have bloodshot eyes in his mugshot, and didn’t smile as he looked into the camera.

After Woods’ terrifying rollover car crash, which occurred just after 2 p.m. local time near 281 Beach Road, he was met by DUI investigators at the scene.

“Woods showed signs of impairment and refused a urinalysis test, leading to charges of DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test,” Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said during a press conference.

He clarified that officers “weren’t suspicious of alcohol in this case” and that Woods “blew triple zeros” in his Breathalyzer test.

According to authorities, the 82-time PGA winner was driving a “dark colored Land Rover” when he attempted to pass a utility pressure cleaner truck, allegedly clipping the “back end” of the truck’s trailer, at which point it rolled.

Cops stated that Woods, 50, crawled out of his vehicle following the incident and confirmed that no one involved in the accident was injured.

The sheriff also confirmed that Woods was alone in the Land Rover at the time of the crash.

This is Woods’ second DUI arrest. In May 2017, he was busted for a DUI in Jupiter, Fla., after cops found him passed out behind the wheel of his Mercedes-Benz. 

His mugshot quickly went viral on social media due to the pro athlete’s scruffy and bleary-eyed appearance.

At the time, Woods blamed his arrest on an “unexpected reaction” to medication he’d been taking post-back surgery and denied that alcohol was involved.

Tests showed he had Vicodin, Dilaudid, Xanax, Ambien and THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, in his system.

Police also said it appeared he’d been in a minor car accident before they found him. 

Woods pleaded guilty to reckless driving in a deal to avoid conviction for DUI, and was sentenced to one year of probation and a $250 fine.

Soon after his arrest made headlines, he announced he was seeking “professional help” to “manage” his medications.

Woods has been involved in several serious car crashes. His near-fatal accident in the outskirts of Los Angeles in 2021 left him with permanent leg injuries.

“It was very fortunate that Mr. Woods was able to come out of this alive,” Deputy Carlos Gonzalez of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, who was first on the scene, said at the time.
