As per the sheriff, Woods held a lethargic demeanour on the scene and did exhibit signs of impairment.
Authorities further revealed that Tiger Woods was alone when the accident took place, and his girlfriend, Vanessa and her daughters were not involved in the same accident. It couldn't be confirmed by the authorities whether Woods was wearing a seat belt or not. If the reports are to be believed, Tiger Woods's Land Rover ended up on the side of Jupiter Island.
Reportedly, Woods was speeding his SUV and was trying to overtake a pickup trucker pulling a pressure cleaner, but struck the rear body of the vehicle, leading his car to roll over. As per the Martin County Sheriff, John Budensiek, Woods was not under the influence of alcohol as he passed the Breathalyser test. However, he said 'no' to take a urinalysis and didn't want to undergo the same, which could have examined the presence of other substances or medications. As per the Sheriff, authorities believe that Woods was impaired by medication or other substances. To mention, no drug or alcohol was found in the car, as per the Sheriff.
With his recent arrest, Tiger Woods's personal life also grabbed the attention. For the unversed, Tiger has been in a relationship with Donald Trump's former daughter-in-law, Vanessa Trump. Vanessa got married to Donald Trump Jr. in 2005, and they have five kids. It was in 2018, when Vanessa and Donald Trump Jr. called it quits and opted for divorce.
It was in 2024 when reports suggested that Vanessa was dating Tiger, and the latter made things official by March 2025. If a report by PEOPLE is to be believed, Donald Trump Jr. was 'cool' about this, while his father, President Donald Trump, said he loves both of them, and it's a good thing. Well, the President was asked about Woods's recent DUI arrest by Miami reporters. To this, Donald Trump reportedly said that he knows that his close friend, Woods met with an accident. He also called Woods an amazing human being, while adding:
"He's got some difficulty, there was an accident, and that's all I know. Very close friend of mine. He's an amazing person, amazing man, but, uh, some difficulty."
