The golfer climbed out of the window, officials said. <br \/>Neither Woods nor the truck driver were injured.<br \/>Responding law enforcement officers suspected Woods was impaired. He submitted to a breath test, but refused to do a urine test, officials said. He told officers he had taken medication for prior injuries, officials said. <br \/>He was arrested at the scene and taken to a local jail. <br \/>The golf star is also facing one charge of refusing to take a test, officials said. <br \/>Earlier in the week, Woods played in a match Tuesday in the finals for Tomorrow\u2019s Golf League, where his team, Jupiter Links Golf Club, lost to the Los Angeles Golf Club. <br \/>In 2021, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/us-news\/tiger-woods-drove-nearly-twice-speed-limit-crash-not-impaired-n1263304\" target=\"_blank\">golfer was injured in a rollover crash in Rolling Hills Estates in Southern California<\/a>. Authorities said he was driving at least twice the speed limit in a 45 mph zone when his Genesis GV80 SUV struck a tree, causing the vehicle to fly through the air and land on its side.<br \/>Woods suffered serious injuries in that previous crash.<br \/>Officials said at the time there were no signs of impairment, although that finding caused some backlash. Investigators came under scrutiny for failing to get a search warrant for the golfer\u2019s blood samples, which could have detected any evidence of alcohol or drugs.<br \/>Woods was not charged in that 2021 crash. <br \/>The athlete had previously checked himself into a clinic in 2017 for prescription medication following an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/sports\/tiger-woods-dui-arrest-golfer-had-five-drugs-system-toxicology-n792856\" target=\"_blank\">arrest that year for driving under the influence in Florida<\/a>.<br \/>Minyvonne Burke is a senior breaking news reporter for NBC News.<br \/>Alicia Victoria Lozano is a California-based reporter for NBC News focusing on climate change, wildfires and the changing politics of drug laws.<br \/>&copy;&nbsp;2026 NBCUniversal Media, LLC<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/rss\/articles\/CBMiigFBVV95cUxQVHluTEN0QlhmTEZJWEw1MVl5NXRDdHFEd3R6WHdLYWRtN0pyaXJDSzk2UEhZb2Ffak95bmg3dDNwQkdaMjI5ZWNVUkJINXA1QVYyOE5CVC15R21DT2xvUWpKM3VvOFpXV0RyWWJrUkdqYXBkbldWUDlIeTlqaVF5a0tuQjRUTVo2bFE?oc=5\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>news AlertsThere are no new alerts at this timeGolf superstar Tiger Woods was arrested and charged with driving under the influence Friday afternoon after he was involved in a rollover crash, Florida authorities said.
