GOLFER TIGER WOODS has been arrested and charged with driving under the influence after a car crash in Florida.

Woods, who was uninjured in the accident, was detained after the car he was driving clipped a truck and flipped over.

Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said the 50-year-old showed signs of “impairment” but passed a breathalyzer test for alcohol.

“But when it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, and so he’s been charged with DUI, with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test in the crash,” Budensiek said.

NBC local news affiliate WPTV showed a picture of the crash scene showing a sports utility vehicle flipped onto its side.

This comes five years after Woods was seriously injured in a car crash in California in 2021.

Woods was also involved in a traffic incident in 2017, when he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.

He later pleaded guilty to reckless driving, paid a fine and attended DUI school.
