Tiger Woods’ entire sobriety test caught on bodycam footage: ‘I’m getting arrested?’
Tiger Woods was placed in handcuffs last week after a lengthy sobriety test.
Woods blew “triple-zeroes” on a breathalyzer but still underwent a test due to his “lethargic” movements and other signs of impairment, authorities said.
Woods told law enforcement prior to the field sobriety tests that he underwent seven back surgeries and “over 20 operations on his leg.” He told law enforcement that “I take a few” prescription medications. In 2021, he got into a wreck that resulted in serious leg injuries that kept him off the golf course for the entire year.

He also mentioned that his ankle was fused and he walks with a limp due to the injuries. Due to the nature of his injuries, authorities made him do the exercises sitting down.
The first exercise Woods did was following a finger with his eyes, which he struggled with. He also was told to bring his fingertips to his nose.
After alternating between his palm and back of his hand on his other hand while alternating between counting 1 and 2, another movement he had trouble with, he was tasked with one more exercise that included putting fists together, clapping, and more counting.
After the four exercises, a deputy asked Woods to turn around and place his hands behind his back. Woods was then handcuffed.

“I’m getting arrested?” Woods asked.
“Yes sir,” the deputy replied.
It was the second time Woods was arrested for driving under the influence – he was also taken into custody in 2017.
Woods announced earlier this week he would “seek treatment,” forgoing a return to the golf course for the time being.
“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today. I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery,” Woods said in a statement Tuesday posted to social media.
“I’m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time.”
