WATCH LIVE: Authorities give update on Tiger Woods rollover crash

The crash occurred just after 2 pm ET near the golfer’s home.

JUPITER, Fla. — Golf legend Tiger Woods was involved in a rollover crash near his home in Jupiter, Florida, multiple media outlets reported on Friday. 

According to the Associated Press, the crash occurred just after 2 pm ET. The Martin County Fire Rescue Department said that there were no serious injuries.

The crash came days after Woods returned to his first competitive golf round in more than a year at TGL. There were also rumblings that Woods was attempting a comeback for this year’s Masters Tournament. Woods has been rehabbing a ruptured Achilles tendon that happened just over a year ago. 

This isn’t the first time that Tiger Woods has been involved in a serious car crash. In 2021, the golfing legend crashed his car in California. Woods suffered extensive leg injuries in that crash and was not able to play competitive golf for an extended time. Woods ultimately had several surgeries on his leg due to the injuries sustained. 

Deputies said Woods was not impaired by drugs or alcohol following the rollover wreck that took place on a downhill stretch of road known for crashes.

He was also arrested on a DUI charge in 2017 when South Florida police found him asleep behind the wheel of his car that was parked awkwardly with damage to the driver’s side. Woods said later he had taken a bad mix of painkillers.
