A second mugshot of Tiger Woods<\/a> has been released following his arrest on suspicion of DUI last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The golf legend, 50, was arrested and booked into Martin County jail on March 27 after he flipped his SUV while attempting to overtake a truck and trailer at high speed in the billionaire enclave of Jupiter Island in Florida<\/a>. He was found with two pills in his pocket.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Days after Woods vowed to step away from the game to seek treatment<\/a> and focus on his health, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office released a second mugshot of the 15-time major winner.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A bleary-eyed and disheveled Woods was captured in what appeared to be a navy inmate’s uniform as he stared down the lens of the camera with a deep frown.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It marked a change from the original mugshot that was released shortly after his release from jail last week, which showed the golf icon still dressed in the same blue Sun Day Red polo shirt that he sported at the crash scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After cops found Woods ‘dazed and sweaty’ with two opioid pills in his pocket at the scene, he was arrested for DUI, property damage and failure to submit to a lawful test.<\/a><\/p>\n

The police affidavit said Woods was ‘limping and stumbling’ during a field sobriety test. After completing a number of exercises, Woods was deemed unfit to be driving his car.<\/p>\n

He had been traveling at ‘high speeds’ on a residential road and after the crash showed ‘signs of impairment,’ Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said, adding that investigators believe he had taken some kind of medication or drug.<\/p>\n

He described Woods as lethargic and said he agreed to a breathalyzer test that showed no signs of alcohol, but he refused a urine test and was arrested.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest mugshot comes after police bodycam footage was released on Thursday, showing Woods in the backseat of a cop car, yawning wildly, struggling to contain a bout of hiccups, and briefly falling asleep.<\/p>\n

Earlier footage from the crash scene showed the remarkable moment he walked away from police officers and then claimed to have been on the phone to President Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Woods is believed to have traveled to a facility in Zurich, Switzerland on Friday – one week on from the incident –\u00a0 after a judge granted him permission to leave the country in order to do so with more privacy than in the United States.<\/p>\n

His private jet landed in the Swiss city shortly after Woods announced in a statement this week that he would be ‘seeking treatment and focusing on my health<\/a>.’<\/p>\n

It is as yet unclear whether Woods was on the plane as it headed to Europe, but Switzerland is believed to be home to some of the most expensive and luxurious private treatment facilities in the world.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\"Extraordinary <\/p>\n

Extraordinary police footage emerged of Woods in the back of a cop car following his arrest\u00a0<\/p>\n

TMZ reports<\/a> that some facilities in Zurich even have ‘one-client admittance’, meaning that only Woods would be at the facility, granting him the privacy he desires.<\/p>\n

Woods’ potential arrival in Switzerland for treatment comes just hours after his girlfriend Vanessa Trump broke her silence on the arrest, posting a supportive message to Tiger on her Instagram account<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Alongside a photo of the pair sharing an embrace, she wrote – quite simply: ‘Love you’.<\/p>\n

The Daily Mail understands that behind the scenes Vanessa, 48, has been pushing Woods to get the best care possible and that she won’t stand for another repeat of the troubles that have blighted Woods’ life away from sport.<\/p>\n

Last week’s car crash was the fourth occasion Woods has been involved in an accident since 2009.<\/p>\n

The first came when Woods drove into a fire hydrant outside his home, fleeing after ex-wife Elin Nordegren had discovered he had been cheating.<\/p>\n

In 2017, police found him asleep at the wheel on the side of the road with the engine running. He was arrested then, too, for DUI with Woods blaming an ‘unexpected reaction’ to prescription medication for his condition. He later checked into rehab.<\/p>\n

In 2021, he rolled his car at high speed in California so badly that he broke his right leg in multiple places and there were fears that he could have faced amputation.<\/p>\n
