The golf world is reeling after the release of body cam footage showing the moment 50-year-old Tiger Woods was arrested. The incident occurred last Friday in Martin County, Florida. The 15-time major champion’s car flipped onto its roof after a collision with another vehicle.
Details: The video shows Woods on his knees in front of officers, trying to explain what happened:
“I just looked at my phone, and suddenly—boom.”
Meanwhile, the other party involved in the crash pointed directly at the golf star:
“He’s the one who hit me.”
Although Woods’ alcohol test came back negative, the legend’s behavior raised serious suspicions.
Police confirmed that the athlete refused to provide a urine sample but admitted to taking powerful painkillers. Tiger did not plead guilty to driving under the influence, but was granted permission to leave the US to undergo rehabilitation at an international clinic.
The fallout from this scandal has been catastrophic for his career. Tiger Woods has officially announced an indefinite break from the sport to focus on treatment. The PGA (Professional Golfers’ Association) has backed his decision, praising the player’s courage in prioritizing his health.
Reminder: Donald Trump came to the defense of Tiger Woods after his DUI arrest.
