Woods was arrested in Florida and put into custody at 3 a.m., and released at 10:50 a.m, according to the Palm Beach County Sheiff's Office.
The 41-year-old is currently rehabbing from fusion surgery on his back in April - his fourth such procedure since 2014. Just last week Woods wrote he feels great, and wants to make a return to professional golf.
