Per the report, Woods was taken into custody at around 3 in the morning. He was driving on Military Trail South of Indian Creek Parkway. According to police records, the golfing legend was released from Palm Beach County Jail just before 11 a.m.
This is the first big negative incident for Woods since his 2009 cheating scandal broke — a scandal that began with a car crash in his Windermere neighborhood.
Woods has been recovering from back surgery to relieve pain in his leg and back and recently said he feels great and is eager to get back onto the golf course.
