Several hours after being booked on DUI-related charges, Woods was released from a Florida jail Friday night following a rollover crash near his home in Jupiter Island.

The way he left drew attention.

Woods exited through a back door of the Martin County facility, avoiding the media gathered out front, per the New York Post. He was later seen slumped in the passenger seat of a black Cadillac as he was driven away.

He had spent roughly eight hours in custody, which aligns with Florida requirements in DUI cases.

The arrest itself came earlier in the day after Woods attempted to pass a truck on a narrow road and clipped a trailer, causing his SUV to flip. Authorities said he showed signs of impairment at the scene.

Alcohol was ruled out. A Breathalyzer test registered 0.00. Police instead pointed to "some type of medication or drug" as a possible factor.

Woods was charged with DUI, property damage, and refusing to submit to a urine test. Officials said he was cooperative but declined further testing.

This marks the second DUI-related arrest of Woods' career, following a 2017 incident involving prescription medication.

This time, the focus shifts to what comes next. Because once again, one of the biggest names in sports is dealing with legal trouble off the course.
