Tiger Woods seen struggling to walk straight in police dashcam video of arrest
Updated | By Andre Bloem and AFP
Tiger Woods was found asleep at the wheel of his car when he was arrested, police records showed Tuesday.
Woods, who issued a statement on Monday saying alcohol was not involved in the incident, needed to be woken by a police officer, his arrest report showed.
The 14-time major winner has blamed the DUI arrest near his home in Jupiter, Florida on an adverse reaction to prescription medication.
His police report, obtained and published by several media outlets, said Woods was "co-operative" and "confused" when found by police, with "extremely slow and slurred speech."
He initially told officers he had been driving back to Florida from Los Angeles but later stated "he did not know where he was."
The golfer was unable to complete various roadside sobriety tests which included standing on one leg and the "walk and turn" test.
However, contrary to reports on Monday which said Woods refused a breathalyzer test, the golfer agreed and "blew zeroes" indicating there was no alcohol in his system.
Woods also told police he had been using four prescription medications including the powerful painkiller Vicodin, which is commonly prescribed following surgery.
Woods has undergone four separate surgeries on his back since 2014, with the most recent procedure taking place in late April.
