Tiger Woods DUI

In the time between Tiger Woods flipping his car and being arrested for DUI, the golf legend dialed up President Donald Trump from the scene of the crash.

TMZ Sports has obtained body cam footage that shows Tiger hanging around as cops assessed the scene. He was not cuffed at the time and was permitted to sit in a police cruiser before cops had him perform a field sobriety test.

At one point, Tiger walked away from the cruiser and into the distance ... forcing police to call him back to the scene. While Tiger is walking back, he appears to be on the phone and can be heard saying, “Thank you so much. All right. You got it. Bye.”

The officer then asked Tiger to remain close by … to which he replied: “Yeah, I was just talking with the President.”

Tiger Woods was clearly planning to make a comeback at The Masters prior to his DUI arrest -- something he told an officer right at the crash scene last week.

TMZ Sports obtained body cam footage of the exchange with responders on March 27 in Florida ... when one asked Woods if he needed anything from his flipped Range Rover.

Woods said he wanted his clubs ... and they joked about his famed putter that he made sure to note he's used to win all his majors.

First it was Tiger Woods, now Phil Mickelson announced he will not be competing for a green jacket this year -- Lefty revealed he's taking some time away as his family deals with a "personal health matter."

The three-time Masters winner stated minutes ago he won't be going for a fourth in 2026 ... days after Tiger shared his own update following a DUI arrest.

That means two of the biggest and most beloved figures in the sport will be MIA next week.

"Unfortunately, I will not play in the Masters Tournament next week and will be out for an extended period of time as my family continues to navigate a personal health matter," Mickelson said.

Tiger Woods isn't only dealing with a DUI charge after his rollover accident and arrest on Friday ... TMZ Sports has learned the golf legend has also been hit with a citation for careless driving.

The ticket was filed in Martin County on Thursday -- a non-criminal traffic violation -- and carries a fine of $163.

The citation was filed the same day authorities released body camera footage from the rollover accident scene, where the golf legend was seen kneeling just feet from his Range Rover, telling law enforcement that he "looked down" at his phone, and "all of a sudden -- boom."

Officials have released the body cam footage from Tiger Woods' DUI ... showing the golf legend getting placed in handcuffs after several field sobriety tests.

The video shows responders checking on Woods as they got to the scene ... and he insisted he was fine.

"I looked down at my phone ... and all of a sudden -- boom," Woods explained.

Tiger Woods isn't dealing with his DUI troubles alone -- TMZ Sports is told Vanessa Trump is standing by her man as he faces the aftermath of his arrest.

There are reports the golf superstar's latest legal issues have caused a rift in his relationship with Donald Trump Jr.'s ex-wife ... but we're hearing something entirely different.

Our sources say Tiger and Vanessa have obviously discussed what went down on Friday, March 27 in Florida ... but there's been no fighting, no arguing, and absolutely no talks of breaking up.

Tiger Woods is putting everything on pause … including a role many thought was his for the taking.

The PGA of America made that clear Wednesday … throwing its full support behind Tiger Woods as he steps away to focus on his health ... and announcing the 15-time major champion will not captain Team USA at the 2027 Ryder Cup.

The statement came just a day after Woods revealed he’s “stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health” following his DUI-related arrest last Friday in Florida.

Tiger Woods is going far away to get treatment after his recent DUI arrest -- the golf superstar was granted approval to travel out of the country to receive care ... citing privacy as the main reason.

TMZ Sports has obtained the filing made by attorney Douglas Duncan ... which states Tiger was looking to leave America to "begin comprehensive inpatient treatment."

"Based upon the Defendant's treating physician, the out of country treatment facility recommendation is based upon the Defendant's complex clinical presentation and the urgent need for a level of care that cannot safely or effectively be done within the United States, as his privacy has been repeatedly compromised."

12:15 PM PDT -- TMZ Sports obtained additional court documents that show Tiger Woods is planning to travel outside the U.S. to get treatment after his recent DUI arrest ... citing privacy as the main reason.

Tiger Woods just scored a small win in court -- and it could mean he’s getting back on the move soon.

A Florida judge has permitted Woods to travel out of state following his recent DUI arrest … signing off on the motion on Wednesday after leaving the decision up to the court’s discretion, according to documents obtained by TMZ Sports.

It’s unclear why Tiger sought permission to travel outside of Florida.

Tiger Woods just broke his silence following his DUI arrest ... saying he is seeking treatment.

"I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today," the 50-year-old golf superstar said on X minutes ago.

"I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery."

The president has been briefed on Tiger Woods' DUI arrest -- Donald Trump says the golf superstar "lives a life of pain" these days ... but is doing well after being put in the slammer for DUI on Friday.

Nos. 45 and 47 claimed the 50-year-old was trending in the right direction when they talked after the rollover crash ... and opened up a bit on Woods' condition.

“I think he’s doing great, he’s doing good," Trump told the N.Y. Post. "He tested negative for alcohol, as you know, and he is under a tremendous physical pressure from his various ailments, you know, the back and the leg."

Tiger Woods is one of the greatest athletes on the planet ... but cops say he was anything but coordinated and balanced during his DUI arrest -- with officials detailing his shaky field sobriety test.

According to the arrest affidavit, deputies say Woods showed multiple signs of impairment from the jump … sweating heavily, moving slowly, speaking "thick tongued" and even stumbling as he walked. At one point, authorities noted he appeared to be limping and needed instructions repeated during testing.

When law enforcement had him perform the standard eye test, they observed bloodshot, glassy eyes and dilated pupils -- along with a lack of smooth tracking, a key indicator investigators look for in DUI cases.

Tiger Woods might not want to hire a driver after his rollover crash and DUI arrest, but it might not be up to him if he ultimately loses his license. Thankfully for the golf legend, there's a Florida-based company that wants to help.

TMZ Sports spoke with several car ride services around Jupiter Island, days after Woods, 50, was busted for allegedly driving under the influence, flipping his $250k Range Rover Friday afternoon, and many are offering their services.

The Black Car Company tells us they would love to chauffeur the golf superstar around.

"Tiger Woods has done so much for the game of golf and our local community here in Florida," a TBCC spokesperson told us.

Donald Trump Jr. is just glad everyone is okay after Tiger Woods' scary DUI crash, and TMZ has learned he's not raising any concerns about his kids or Tiger over the incident.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Don Jr. isn't worried about Tiger being around his children following Friday's rollover crash in Jupiter, Florida, despite a report suggesting otherwise. We're told nothing about the situation has set off alarm bells for him, mainly because his kids and Vanessa were not in the car.

We're told he's thankful and grateful everyone involved made it out okay.

Add Elin Nordegren's name to the growing list of people "concerned" for Tiger Woods' well-being after his rollover crash and DUI arrest.

Nordegren -- who shares two kids with Woods -- is reportedly worried after Friday's wreck, according to People … which ended with Tiger in handcuffs, where he's now facing three charges, including driving under the influence.

According to the report, Nordegren has concerns about whether Woods can stay healthy over the long run ... and be there for their kids -- 18-year-old Sam and 17-year-old Charlie.

7:15 AM PT Tuesday -- TMZ Sports obtained the arrest affidavit that shows Tiger Woods had two loose hydrocodone pills in his pocket at the time of his DUI arrest and stumbled through his field sobriety test.

Tiger Woods is addressing the question everyone is asking -- Why doesn't he get a driver, especially if he has a clear substance abuse problem. Well, he's not giving the answer people wanted.

Tiger cares a lot about his privacy, at least according to People. The mag cites an anonymous source who claims he won't hire a private driver because he "doesn't want anyone to watch over him or know what he is doing." The source adds that the legendary golfer also thinks he's fine to drive.

The insider goes on to say that Tiger "despises public scrutiny." It's pretty ironic, because he's come under plenty of scrutiny after getting busted twice for DUI.
