A toxicology report revealed that Tiger Woods had Vicodin, Dilaudid, Xanax, Ambien, and THC in his system at the time of his DUI arrest in May, according to ESPN.

Woods was arrested in the early morning of May 29 after falling asleep in his car. He passed the breathalyzer test for alcohol, but failed several field sobriety tests. The former world No. 1 golfer later issued a statement saying he had an "unexpected reaction" to prescribed medication.

He released the following statement Monday:

As I previously said, I received professional help to manage my medications. Recently, I had been trying on my own to treat my back pain and a sleep disorder, including insomnia, but I realize now it was a mistake to do this without medical assistance. I am continuing to work with my doctors, and they feel I've made significant progress. I remain grateful for the amazing support that I continue to receive and for the family and friends that are assisting me.

All criminal charges against Woods will be dropped should he complete the diversion program offered to him when he pleaded guilty to reckless driving earlier in August.

In July, Tiger announced he completed a private treatment program.
