Tiger Woods plans to seek treatment and to step away from golf for a time to focus on his health after he was arrested for DUI on Friday, March 27.

“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,” Woods, 50, wrote in a statement posted on X on Tuesday, March 31. “I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.”

Ah, Tiger Woods, the once-swing king now teed off by sobriety’s cruel rules—arrested for DUI after the classic move of overtaking a pressure-cleaning truck while apparently auditioning for “World’s Most Lethargic Action Star.” Blowing triple zeros on the breathalyzer, yet playing coy with the urinalysis test, he’s mastered the art of mystery, if not mobility. In a move that will surely top the leaderboard of PR plays, Tiger’s hit pause on golf to focus on “lasting recovery” and “well-being,” because nothing says commitment like a carefully worded X post asking for privacy while simultaneously ensuring the media frenzy keeps its eyes firmly on the man who never quite seems to lose his spotlight—even when rolling over.
