Five-time Masters champion Tiger Woods has announced he is 'stepping away' from professional golf for an indefinite period to focus on his health. In a statement released via social media, Woods expressed the necessity of his hiatus.
The announcement follows a high-speed rollover car crash on Jupiter Island that led to his arrest on charges of driving under the influence (DUI), property damage, and refusal to submit to a urinalysis test. The golfer pleaded not guilty to the charges.
