Tiger Woods\u2019 private jet arrived in Zurich, Switzerland early Friday morning, as the 15-time major champ plans to seek inpatient treatment following a car crash and DUI arrest, according to TMZ.<\/a><\/p>\n

Although it is unclear if 50-year-old Woods was on the plane, Zurich is home to two of the top treatment centers \u2014 Paracelsus Recovery and Kusnacht Practice \u2014\u00a0both of which are known for exclusivity, privacy and a hefty price tag.<\/p>\n

The news comes two days after a Florida judge granted the Woods\u2019 request to travel outside of the U.S. to seek treatment away from media and public scrutiny.<\/p>\n

Woods said in a statement on Tuesday that he was stepping away from the game to get treatment after his rollover crash in Florida last Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,\u201d Woods said. \u201cI am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woods, who blew zeros on his breathalyzer test, told an officer that he had taken his prescription meds earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

The names of the medication were redacted in an arrest affidavit released Tuesday by the Martin County Sheriff\u2019s Department.<\/p>\n

Two hydrocodone pills were found in his pocket during a search.<\/p>\n

Woods was \u201csweating profusely,\u201d and his movement was \u201clethargic and slow\u201d while he was being interviewed by police, Deputy Tatiana Levenar wrote in the affidavit \u2014 adding that his eyes were \u201cbloodshot and glassy\u201d and his pupils were \u201cextremely dilated.\u201d<\/p>\n

In video footage from the arrest, Woods can be heard saying that he called President Trump before he was handcuffed.<\/p>\n

Woods is in a relationship with Vanessa Trump, the ex-daughter-in-law of the president.<\/p>\n

She publicly supported Woods, writing \u201cLove you\u201d in an Instagram Story post on Friday, which included a photo of the pair.<\/p>\n

Woods\u00a0plead not guilty<\/a>\u00a0to the DUI charges.<\/p>\n

Woods returned to golf in the TGL Finals last month after he underwent lumbar disk replacement surgery in October and also had surgery for a ruptured left Achilles last March. He hadn\u2019t played since 2024.<\/p>\n

His DUI arrest followed his February 2021 car crash that nearly cost him his right leg.<\/p>\n

He pleaded guilty to reckless driving and checked into a treatment facility that year to get help with prescription drugs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tiger Woods\u2019 private jet arrived in Zurich, Switzerland early Friday morning, as the 15-time major champ plans to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":45780,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[25619,25432,26548,9313,26547,25493,17,25428],"class_list":{"0":"post-45779","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-switzerland","8":"tag-car-crash","9":"tag-dui","10":"tag-dui-arrest","11":"tag-friday-morning","12":"tag-jupiter-island","13":"tag-private-jet","14":"tag-switzerland","15":"tag-tiger-woods"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ch\/116368520393601098","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45779"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45779\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45780"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
