Early Monday morning in Jupiter, Fla., Tiger Woods was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. Booked for DUI in a Palm Beach County jail at 7:18 a.m. ET, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office<\/a>, the golf legend was released on his own recognizance at 10:50 a.m.<\/p>\n

Jupiter police spokesperson Kristin Rightler did not immediately offer further detail about the arrest.<\/p>\n

The 41-year-old golfer has won 14 major tournaments and 79 PGA Tour events \u2014 which is enough to rank him second on the list of all-time winningest golfers, The Associated Press reports<\/a> \u2014 but his most recent major win came nearly a decade ago, in 2008.<\/p>\n

Since then, Woods has struggled with a raft of headline-grabbing off-the-course incidents, which Sports Illustrated details here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

More recently, health concerns have kept him off the links. Just last month, Woods underwent his fourth back surgery in about as many years.<\/p>\n

“I could no longer live with the pain I had. We tried every possible non-surgical route and nothing worked. I had good days and bad days, but the pain was usually there, and I couldn’t do much,” he wrote in a blog post last week<\/a>. “Even lying down hurt.”<\/p>\n
