Deputies shatter Tiger Woods' back windshield after he requests to keep prized possession, bodycam shows

When Tiger Woods crashed his car last Friday, arguably his most prized possession was with him in the trunk: his golf clubs.

Woods' 2025 Range Rover turned onto its driver's side in the crash and nearly two hours later, the 15-time major champion was arrested for driving under the influence.

Authorities arrived on the scene and talked with Woods' manager, Rob McNamara, who said the clubs were extremely important.

"I understand," a deputy said, as bodycam footage revealed. "Worth more than my house."

"The putter is worth more than all of our houses," McNamara replied.

Woods later said that the "sticks" were the only thing he needed, especially the putter, which he "won 14 majors" with. Woods used another putter for the 1997 Masters, his first major victory, which he won by 12 strokes.

The deputy on camera told a tow employee that there was "expensive s---" in the trunk from a "high-profile person" that needed to be extracted from the vehicle. However, as a result of the crash, the trunk was unable to be opened. So, a member of a local fire department shattered the back windshield, and authorities slipped the clubs through the windshield and gave them to McNamara, keeping them safe and sound.

The clubs were in a Monster Energy branded bag, and his driver was covered with Woods' notorious tiger cover head.

The deputy found one of Woods' Sun Day Red shirts, which he joked was more than one of his paychecks.

Woods was placed in the vehicle after failing a field sobriety test, taken after he showed "signs of impairment" and was "lethargic." He blew "triple-zeroes" in a breathalyzer, but after he failed to submit a urine test, he was hit with another charge. Officers found two pills that were later identified as hydrocodone, a prescription opioid used for pain relief.

Woods previously told law enforcement prior to the field sobriety tests that he underwent seven back surgeries and "over 20 operations on his leg." He told law enforcement that "I take a few" prescription medications. In 2021, he got into a wreck that resulted in serious leg injuries that kept him off the golf course for the entire year.

Woods told officers he was "hoping to" play in the Masters, but in a statement earlier this week, Woods said he would pause his quest to get back on the golf course to "seek treatment."

"I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today. 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," Woods said in a statement Tuesday posted to social media.

"I'm committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time."
