Hydrocodone Found as Tiger Woods Told Deputies He Was Looking at Phone Before Crash

The incident report states that hydrocodone pills were found in Tiger Woods’s pocket after a rollover crash and DUI arrest on March 27, 2026 (ET). Woods told a deputy he looked down at his cell phone before clipping the back of a trailer on Jupiter Island, and the report notes signs of impairment and a failed field sobriety evaluation. The Martin County Sheriff’s Office released the report Tuesday (ET).

Crash details and hydrocodone discovery

The report says the crash occurred when Woods’s Land Rover overtook a truck that was turning into a driveway, clipped the back of a trailer and rolled onto its side. Video from the scene showed the SUV on its side, and law enforcement says Woods climbed out of a window and was arrested at the scene. The truck’s owner, Jeromy Bullard, is identified in the report as the owner of a local home cleaning company and the truck sustained about $5, 000 in damage to the rear left fender and wheel of the trailer.

During the roadside interaction, the report states Woods told a deputy he had looked down at his cell phone and did not realize the truck had slowed. Deputies noted that he had bloodshot and glassy eyes, extremely dilated pupils, slowed movements described as lethargic, and profuse sweating while sitting in an air-conditioned vehicle. The report documents Woods struggling on field sobriety exercises, including limping and stumbling to the right, and states two white pills later determined to be hydrocodone were found in his left pocket. The report also records that Woods denied alcohol use and said he takes a small number of prescription medications and had taken medication earlier in the morning.

Immediate reactions

Ricky Bullard, father of Jeromy Bullard, said, “I’d love to talk about it, but I can’t, ” and added that his son was not hospitalized or seriously injured. Kevin Kisner, teammate, TGL, called the situation “very disturbing” and said the incident was unfortunate but that no one was injured in the crash. The report notes that Woods submitted to a breath test at the jail but refused a urine test and was recorded leaving the Martin County Jail late Friday night (ET).

Quick context and what’s next

Woods has faced prior legal trouble involving a DUI arrest and later sought treatment for prescription medication matters, as the report references his earlier history. The Martin County Sheriff’s Office incident report is the central official document on the sequence of events released Tuesday (ET), and it frames both the immediate arrest and the evidence of hydrocodone possession found at the scene.

Next steps will include any formal charges and court proceedings following the arrest; investigators and prosecutors will review the report and evidence, and public updates are expected as the legal process moves forward. Hydrocodone in the pocket and the reported statements to deputies will figure prominently in that review, with further developments to be announced in the coming days (ET).
