It's March 31st. This is Durham News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Tiger Woods got arrested for driving under the influence after crashing his land rover near his floor to home. The 50-year-old golfer rolled his vehicle and hit a pickup truck, leading to charges of DUI with property damage and refusing a urine test. He was booked at Marin County Jail on March 27th. Right after the crash, Jail staff sent him to Cleveland Clinic for medical clearance since it was a wreck. Woods refused treatment. Got discharged quickly with no reported injuries for him or the other driver, then headed back for booking and his muck shot. Before posting bail and getting released, Woods has a history of serious surgeries, seven on his back and over 20 on his leg, which might explain the compression sock on his knee. Officers noted he was sweating heavily, moving slow and lethargic, stumbling during sobriety tests, with blood shot glassy eyes and super dilated, pupils. The breathalyzer at Jail shows zero alcohol, but he admitted taking

prescription meds that morning and had two hydrocodone pills in his pocket. Woods said he got distracted by his phone in radio, not noticing the truck slow down ahead. This incident shines a light on how painkillers and distractions mix badly on the road, especially for someone like Woods rebuilding his game. We'll keep watching how the case plays out.
