CNN reports:

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. It’s unclear whether Woods tested positive for alcohol or drugs. It’s also unknown at this time whether Woods was the only person in the vehicle.”

“An arrest report was not immediately available on Monday. Woods has a home on Jupiter Island. CNN has reached out to Woods’ representative but has not heard back. The PGA Tour told CNN it would not comment on the arrest.”

NPR reports:

“More recently, health concerns have kept him off the links. Just last month, Woods underwent his fourth back surgery in about as many years. “I could no longer live with the pain I had. We tried every possible non-surgical route and nothing worked. I had good days and bad days, but the pain was usually there, and I couldn’t do much,” he wrote in a blog post last week.”

“Even lying down hurt.” Still, Woods expressed optimism about the results of the surgery and his chances to get back to the game. “All I can do is take it day by day. There’s no hurry,” Woods wrote last week. “But, I want to say unequivocally, I want to play professional golf again.”
