Tiger Woods Fans Show Their Support With Mug Shot T-Shirts at Houston Open Golf Tournament

While his breathalyzer test resulted in triple zeros, suggesting that Woods was not under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident, authorities suspected Woods of being under the influence of medications or drugs.

“The investigation started and initially right off the top, it did appear that the driver of the Land Rover might be impaired,” said Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek in a press conference on Friday. “And at that point, the chief of Jupiter Island Police Department called me from the Martin County Sheriff’s Office and asked for our assistance.

He continued, “We know we arrested a high profile figure … but it doesn’t matter who you are. If you break the law, we’re going to follow the law. That’s a really easy path to take.”

Woods’ mug shot was revealed on Friday after his arrest, along with photos from the crash. By Saturday afternoon, fans already had the photo printed on T-shirts at the Houston Open.

While Woods was never scheduled to compete in the Houston Open, he was on the precipice of a professional comeback prior to Friday’s accident as questions swirled about whether or not he would compete in April’s Masters tournament.

Meanwhile, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler was slated to play in the Houston Open, but withdrew from the field before teeing off as he prepares for the birth of his second child. Scheffler should be back for the Masters.

Woods was involved in another single-car crash back in 2021, which resulted in a shattered ankle and two leg features. Authorities determined that the speed in which Woods was driving, and not the use of drugs or alcohol, resulted in the crash.

The golfer was also arrested under suspicion of DUI in 2017 during a traffic stop in Florida. The golfer pleaded guilty to reckless driving after various drugs, including pain killers, were found in his system.
