Golf legend, Tiger Woods, was arrested around 3 a.m. Monday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence in Jupiter, Florida, CNN has reported quoting Jupiter police spokeswoman Kristin Rightler said.
According to CNN, Woods was booked into a local jail and released on his own recognizance with no bond a few hours later, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office’s online records.
Woods, 41, who has undergone multiple back surgeries in recent years, hasn’t played competitive golf since he was forced to pull out of the Dubai Desert Classic in February.
His most recent operation was just more than a month ago when he underwent fusion surgery on his back.
Woods said in a blog post published Wednesday that “it was instant nerve relief”.
