I don't think there's any getting off since he denied a test. It's an automatic misdemeanor and suspension of license.

They will release a story about having an incident related to a reaction to new medication or some bull**** like that.


Good, now he'll be forced to hire a driver.

As a former cop with several dozen DWI arrests, I'm a bit confused on the refusal to provide a urine specimen. I have yet to see in any story if police got a specimen or not, despite the refusal.

I don't know how much different FL law is than TX (one big difference, at least in practice, seems to be the use of urine samples, which are pretty rare in TX), but in TX, if the arresting officer can articulate that the driver showed enough signs of impairment to establish probable cause, even if the driver refuses to provide a breath/blood/urine specimen, the cop asks a judge for a warrant and gets the blood specimen that way. Not sure if that happened in Tiger's case or not.

Refusal does result in an automatic 180 day license suspension in TX, but not a conviction for DWI.

There has been a lot of conversations from folks in the media business talking about "those who love Tiger" need to call him out on his self-destruction in an attempt to get him to change his life.

I don't disagree, but I believe all of the issues with Tiger are because he has not shown the ability to have loving, normal relationships with people. His wife, caddie and tour buddies didn't know he he was living a double-life (actually, more than a double-life with his 10 or more honeys on the side). He was raised by his parents to be a machine that could eliminate all distractions to win tournaments. They crafted him into the most mentally tough athlete to ever live IMO. Now he's a robot.

You can't turn that kind of thing off. He doesn't want people to know the real Tiger. He refuses to be vulnerable with anyone. Even guys on tour like JT that are "close" to him are kept at an arms length. He is notoriously socially awkward. A few of his side pieces talked about how there wasn't a lot of s*x. He wanted to cuddle while watching kids cartoons in bed. He won't hire a driver, because that is another person who could potentially be in his circle.

Tiger's knee injury in '08 was his own doing (his obsession with military training), and his competitive career was ended due to his stupidity in LA in '21 when he nearly lost his leg. I don't feel remotely sorry for him for those things that kept him from breaking Jack's record (especially the last wreck). He did it to himself. I read somewhere that the black box in the car he was driving at the Genesis showed that he was pedal to the medal on that SoCal road. He had to have been under the influence then, and he faced zero consequences for it.

The only thing I feel sorry for Tiger about is his opiate addiction. This seemed to have started when he had massive back problems (not of his own doing, just ask Will Zalatoris who has had the same issue), and the subsequent pain led to long-term opiate use, which is a recipe for disaster. Opiates are horrible for nearly everyone when used for the long-term. He got hooked. So did Rush Limbaugh. So did my grandmother, who killed herself with them (purposefully) in 2009. So have millions of others. But his addiction, coupled with his own poor decision making and coping skills, have created a monster. I'm just grateful that no one else has been killed by him.

He needs to be publicly called out. I think Tiger still cares a little bit about his public image and brand. I don't think he has ever let anyone close enough to him where an intervention would work - maybe it would if Charlie and Sam did it. He has no emotional intelligence. But Tiger has fed the PGA long enough that most pros don't want to bite the hands that feed them. I wish someone on tour would stand up at a press conference and call him out. Looking at you, Kevin Kisner. Jim Nance. Dan Hicks. Scottie Scheffler. JT. Don't care who. Call it out.

Agree with everything you said.

I do wonder if this event will be brushed under the rug, since he basically made a slight miscalculation while passing a trailer. Have we seen how fast he was going? I am not excusing it, but I don't believe this accident was as egregious as the California accident. I'm afraid he won't see this one as a reason to change his ways, which is sad.

It wasn't a slight miscalculation. He was driving in a walkable 30 MPH neighborhood. To clip a trailer and flip the car, he'd have to be going way over the speed limit. Likely 50 plus. If you see the picture of where the car was, anyone walking over there could have been killed.

But yes, it wasn't as horrible as the CA wreck, which was beyond the pale.

It's an all round sad decline of him. He's obviously addicted to some type of narcotic. You thought the last wreck might've been the wake up call he needed but obviously not. Addiction is a bad deal. When he was younger it was sex and hoers now it appears to be pain meds or something worse. He needs to get help.

Besides that the PGAT needs to grow some balls and suspend him. I feel way worse for his kids than I do him.

The only person capable of getting his attention died in 2006...and he seemed to be pretty much just a less good at golf version of Tiger.

A slight miscalculation?

I have first-hand knowledge of this subject, on many levels.

Woods has had serious addiction issues for 20 years. He has sought treatment 3 times. Unfortunately, he has enablers who have given him passes from most serious consequences.

Unless he gets help and stays clean, he may take another person's life one day. But all addicts have different bottoms ...

Three times?

I assumed the first time was for s*x addiction around '09, which as publicized. I knew he went to rehab in '17 after his first DUI arrest for painkillers. What was the third time?

Is Kato Kaelin still alive? Seems like Tiger could use a good driver and drug fetcher that doesn't blab.

Hes surrounded by yes men. Anybody who speaks out against him gets ostracized. If the new commissioner wants to make his mark he'll suspend him from the tour and kick him off the competition committee hes currently chairing. Maybe that will get his attention.

Exactly. The worst thing he's lost through his problems is his wife and I honestly think he doesn't give two ****s about that. Strip him of his golf pedestal some and maybe that will wake him up? He's been untouchable and hasn't had any consequences for any of his screw ups except divorce which like I said prolly didn't matter to him.

His golf legacy is all he has left. Hit it where it hurts him some. I say this with respect in terms of helping him out. I've never been one to suck him off and worship his feet like many do but watching him the last ten years is sad to see. Frankly imo he's an embarrassment to the game and his kids. They are old enough to know now how ****ed up he is.

So, is Tiger going to play the Masters? I have not seen a denial from him, just Trump.

I would say at the very least the Tour needs to be very honest with themselves about how much influence they want to continue to give Tiger to lead a lot of these player talks and conversations with the brass.

How he responds to this publicly will be important. There's no more room under the rug.

From a legal standpoint, nothing is going to happen to Tiger other than the 1 yr suspension of his license for refusing the urine/blood test. I'm assuming that the authorities could have gotten a warrant to obtain a sample, but refused. So the DUI charge will go away.

As far as the tour suspending him, that will not happen unless it is something as empty as suspending him while he is still recovering from injury and cannot play anyway. No one else remotely moves the needle like Tiger, and there is no way the PGA Tour is going to suspend him if there is even a possibility of him playing in a tournament. The Tour is praying that he can tee it up 10 times/yr for the next 5 years on the Champions Tour, as it will generate interest in that tour like never before.

I'm not denying he has a serious issue…but I am betting this will not be his wake up call. He already came out and said he was looking at his phone.

JUPITER ISLAND, Fla. (AP) Tiger Woods' eyes were bloodshot and glassy, his pupils dilated and he had hydrocodone pills in his pocket when interviewed at his car crash last week in Florida, according to a sheriff's office report released Tuesday.

Woods' movements were slow and lethargic, and he was sweating as he talked to deputies, according to an incident report released from the Martin County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies found two white pills, which were identified as the opioid hydrocodone used to treat pain, in his pocket, the report said.

When asked by a deputy if he took any prescription medications. Woods said, "I take a few."

Woods told deputies he had been looking at his phone and fiddling with the radio before he clipped the truck in front of him last Friday, the report said.

for sure…but you see where he was going.

for sure, but you can see where he is going here. "It was the phone." I'm not trying to cover for him, just predicting how he will want to see all of this. "If only that guy hadn't stopped and I wasn't looking at my phone, I wouldn't be in this mess."

I know Tiger was the TOURs cash cow for a long time, but thats not the case anymore. They need to speak out against his actions and distance themselves a little bit. If this was an athlete in a different sport who is still actively involved, or the head of a major business, those organizations would publicly say something and that person would be on some sort of indefinite leave.

I firmly believe the modern PGA Tour and the professional golf world doesn't really need Tiger at this point.

The PGA would love the extra viewers on the Champions tour that Tiger would bring.

Tiger needs to do two things:

(1) Go to the toughest rehab on the planet
(2) Hire a permanent chauffeur

Very tough situation because the guy has to be in significant pain on a daily basis as his body has been through hell. And that will never go away. To balance fighting thru pain with a propensity to addiction, this will be a battle he can't win.

Tiger has turned into (or has always been) a real POS, but please keep your uninformed opinions of physics and speeds of crashes to yourself. "Likely 50 plus" would result in a much different looking car (and pavement marks) than the one that just tipped over. I have personally seen a Prius right in front of me going 15 flip onto its side just like that after hitting a curb and overcorrecting.
