00:00Tiger Woods has reportedly refused to hire a driver over the years due to privacy concerns,
00:05with a source explaining to People, he doesn't want anyone to watch over him or know what
00:09he's doing and believes he's fine to drive.
00:12The revelation comes just days after the 50-year-old golfer was arrested for DUI following a rollover
00:18crash in Jupiter Island, Florida.
00:20Authorities say Woods attempted to pass a pressure-cleaning truck and clipped the trailer,
00:25causing the accident.
00:26He was alone in the vehicle and later released from jail the same day.
00:30Officials said Woods showed signs of impairment at the scene, although his breathalyzer tests
00:34returned negative.
00:35He refused a urinalysis test, leading to charges of DUI, with property damage and refusal to
00:41submit to a lawful test.
00:43His bloodshot-eyed mugshot was later released, along with photos of him leaving jail hours
00:48after the arrest.
00:49The incident has also put a spotlight on his relationship with girlfriend Vanessa Trump.
00:53Another insider told People the couple is in love, but described their dynamic as intense,
00:59with Woods' ongoing physical pain from multiple surgeries sometimes making him difficult to
01:04be around.
01:05Trump, who shares five children with ex-husband Donald Trump Jr., is said to be supportive
01:09of Woods' golf career, though sources note she has her hands full sometimes and isn't
01:15around constantly due to her own responsibilities.
01:18Following the arrest, Trump reportedly issued a firm ultimatum.
01:22One insider told the Daily Mail she is not happy at all, calling the situation a definite
01:27red flag, and warned that Woods needs to get things under control or she may not stick around.
01:32Another source described her to the Daily Mail as a concerned girlfriend, expressing boundaries,
01:37while Woods is said to be very apologetic and mortified by the situation.
01:41Despite the headlines, Trump has not publicly addressed the arrest.
01:44She returned to Instagram shortly after the crash to re-share posts from her daughter Kai,
01:49including a photo from the Miami Open and a video Q&A, making no mention of Woods' legal issues.
01:55The crash marks the latest in a series of incidents involving the golf star.
01:59Woods was previously arrested in 2017 after being found asleep at the wheel, later attributing
02:05the situation to an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications.
02:09In 2021, he survived a near-fatal crash in California while driving at high speed, requiring multiple
02:16surgeries and extensive rehab.
02:18His earliest headline-making crash dates back to 2009, when he hit a fire hydrant outside
02:23a neighbor's home.
02:25As Woods faces yet another DUI charge, questions are mounting about his decision to continue driving
02:30himself, and whether this latest incident could have lasting consequences both personally and
02:35legally.
