Tiger Woods bodycam footage released after Florida crash reveals details

The full bodycam video shows Tiger Woods on Jupiter Island moments after the crash, wearing a blue polo shirt, shorts and dark sunglasses. He is filmed calmly kneeling on one knee and telling officers, "I looked down at my phone, and all of a sudden, boom." After an initial search, an officer returns to speak with witnesses while Woods remains at the scene. One witness says they didn’t see Woods looking up as he approached, noting he was moving fast. Nobody was injured, but Woods had to crawl out through the passenger door to free himself. He passed a breathalyser test but refused a urinalysis test for other drugs, according to the arrest records. Officers noted Woods was sweating profusely, his pupils were dilated and his movements were slow and lethargic, and they suspected impairment from an unknown substance. Woods told officers he had not consumed alcohol that day but said he took a few prescription medications earlier in the morning, listing medications that were redacted from the footage. Two white pills, identified later as hydrocodone, were found in his pocket. He remained still during a search and was placed in handcuffs. Woods was later asked if he had anything else; he said no. The incident comes as Woods also announced he had turned down the role of United States Ryder Cup captain for 2027. This sequence of events has become a focal point for his public and professional life following the crash.
