Tiger Woods was involved in a rollover car crash on Jupiter Island, Florida, Friday afternoon, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office confirmed. His condition was not immediately released.
The accident occurred around 2 p.m. near 281 Beach Road. Local CBS affiliate WPEC reported it was a two-car collision. One person was described as stable; another declined to be transported to a hospital, according to the Palm Beach Post. It was not clear which person was which. An eyewitness told TMZ Sports that Woods appeared to be okay at the scene.
The sheriff’s office said the crash remains under investigation.
Woods, 50, has not competed in an official tournament since 2024, recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon and back surgery in October 2025. He appeared at the TGL Finals on ESPN earlier this week. The Masters begins in under two weeks. Woods is still listed as an invitee, though President Donald Trump said during a recent television interview that Woods will not play.
Friday’s crash is the fourth time Woods has been involved in a vehicle crash investigation. His history with cars is long and troubled: a 2009 collision with a fire hydrant triggered a personal scandal; a 2017 DUI arrest, later reduced to reckless driving, revealed a struggle with prescription medication. But it is 2021 that Friday’s report most immediately recalls — a single-car rollover on a suburban Los Angeles road that left Woods with open fractures to the tibia and fibula in his right leg, damage to bones in his foot and ankle, and required emergency surgery followed by 15 months of rehabilitation.
