«I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,» the 15-time major champion said in a statement posted to his social media accounts Tuesday night. «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.

Following Woods’ announcement, Augusta National Golf Club, home of the year’s first major, confirmed the five-time Masters winner would not play next week.

Court documents showed Woods had pleaded not guilty to drunken driving charges and requested a jury trial.

Woods’ next court appearance is scheduled for May 5, although he does not have to appear in person for any pretrial proceedings.

According to the probable cause statement, Woods told authorities he was looking at his phone and didn’t realize the truck in front of him had slowed down.

Authorities also said in a statement that Woods had two hydrocodone pills in his pocket and that officers observed him as lethargic, sluggish, «sweating profusely,» with bloodshot eyes and pupils that were «extremely dilated.»

When asked by the DUI investigation team if he was taking prescription medication, the report states that the 50-year-old golfer replied:

«I take a few,» adding that he had done so earlier in the morning.

Vanessa Trump, Tiger Woods’ girlfriend, has been the talk of the town since his accident. Tiger Woods and his new girlfriend went public with their relationship last year, sparking a flurry of reactions. The popular golfer is clearly enjoying his relationship, as he has repeatedly stated.

Vanessa Trump and her daughter Kai Trump watched Tiger Woods’ recent performance at TGL, on March 17, 2026.

One of them told People that Vanessa is providing the 50-year-old with immense support, aware of how important golf is to him, but also how important it is to be there for him during these difficult times.

The source stressed that it is sometimes difficult to be there for him due to seven back surgeries and an Achilles tendon injury, but Vanessa tries to be there for him as much as she can, even though she has her own life and children to take care of. 

Tiger is frustrated because he is currently unable to play golf, which is his greatest passion. Although he had hoped to return to the golf course, the latest situation will change a lot in his life.

Trump and Woods have been in a happy relationship for more than a year, and her partner is currently dealing with pain due to injuries that led him to take a year off from playing golf, writes People.

“She is very supportive of his golf endeavors because despite his age and injuries, golf dominates Tiger’s life,” the source said. “She has her hands full sometimes, but Vanessa also has a life of her own and children to care for so she isn’t around it all the time. She is happy with him…”

In addition to Woods, his son Charlie Woods also plays golf. Woods also has a daughter, Sam Alexis, with ex-wife Elin Nordegren. Meanwhile, Vanessa’s daughters Kai and Chloe also play golf.

Woods had his seventh back surgery last year and problems with a ruptured Achilles tendon a year ago.

The source said that if Woods plays in the tournament this year, which is unlikely, Vanessa would support his decision.
