I'm sure he assumed by Tigers slurred speech that had been drinking so he put it in the report.
will you please read the report before commenting. It's been linked. Tiger, by his own admission, was taking prescription meds and by his later admission in his statement he released, he admitted to being inadvertently intoxicated. The Cops didn't need to create probable cause in this situation. Yes, they do it all the time, but that's not the case here.

No shite.
But we don't know if its alcohol (looking more and more like that its not) or something else.
If its prescription drugs, thats a different story. Is he abusing them? Was this an accident?
While he is still guilty of DUI in the eyes of the law, there is a much larger battle in the court of public opinion to be won. In that court, intent means a whole hell of a lot.
You got uppity as frick and downvoted because you didnt understand the full premise of the statement.

So they didn't need probable cause, they just arrested him for the fun of it. That's what your saying. Got it.

It means Driving Under the Influence. It doesn't necessarily mean alcohol.

we know it wasn't alcohol based on his breath test. He admitted to using prescription meds. Whether or not he was impaired enough to where he shouldn't have been driving is the question. What I'm saying is that, legally, it doesn't matter if it was an accident. All that matters is whether or not he was impaired.

Well, then maybe make that the premise of your initial post rather than arguing the legal basis of intent in a DUI

That's not what I'm saying at all. What I'm saying is they didn't need to manufacture probable cause because there was mountains of probable cause just on Tiger's actions and statements to the police. This isn't a case where the cops merely saw bloodshot and glazed over eyes and claimed he failed the field sobriety test so they could arrest him.

The problem with Elrod Woods is pretty simple: He was a great golfer and played golf at a very high level. But, this was it. He's not likeable. He has weak character. So, once the golf is gone, what's left? Not much.

I could say this about the majority of professional athletes. And honestly, about a lot of very successful people in all fields. I think, many times, being an a-hole and possibly not being the most wholesome person on the planet is what leads them to that success. I'm not saying that's always the case, but I think many times their own narcissism is what gets them to the top. Once you strip that away, yeah they're just assholes.
What I don't like is people who are so hypocritical to think what Tiger has done is so much worse than what other revered athletes do every single day. I guess when people put these people on a pedestal and expect perfection, this is what it comes to.

Other than Sergio, the Tour players seem to respect and enjoy being around him. Rory and Day have called him their idol.
But he's having to transition from super human status, to early retiree. He's also on heavy meds and can't play, which leads to trouble. I'm glad to see he's getting into the course development business, and I'd like to see him transition into mentor/ambassador status like Nicklaus and Palmer did.

It's still way too early to cancel him out. Palmer has some stories in his past

I'm surprised they didn't just let him go. They must not have recognized him.
