Golf legend Tiger Woods was found by police to have two opioid pills in his pants pocket after his rollover crash last week in Florida, an arrest affidavit released Tuesday reveals.
Woods also had “bloodshot and glassy eyes,” “extremely dilated pupils,” and was “sweating profusely,” when a sheriff’s deputy arrived at the two-car crash scene on Friday afternoon in Jupiter, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office affidavit says.
“Woods movement was lethargic and slow,” the deputy wrote in the affidavit.
“I asked Woods if he consumed any alcoholic beverage to drink today to which he stated ‘none,’ ” the deputy wrote.
“I asked Woods if he consumed any prescription medication to which he stated, ‘I take a few,’ ” the deputy wrote.
During a search, police “located two white pills” inside the golfer’s left side pant pocket, according to the affidavit. Identifying marks showed the pills were hydrocodone, an opioid medication.
Woods submitted to a breath test, which found no alcohol in his system. But he refused to provide a urine test, according to police.
Woods was arrested and charged with driving under the influence, with property damage and refusal to take a urine test.
