Tiger Woods: Alcohol 'not involved' in arrest
Golfer Tiger Woods says alcohol was "not involved" in his arrest while
driving in Florida early on Monday.
The player, who was charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI), blamed
"an unexpected reaction to prescribed medication".
"I understand the severity of what I did and I take full responsibility for
my actions," he said.
Police released a mugshot of Woods, looking unshaven and unkempt, following
his arrest in the town of Jupiter.
"I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was
an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications," he said.
"I didn't realise the mix of medications had affected me so strongly."
He added: "I would like to apologise with all my heart to my family, friends
and the fans. I expect more from myself too."
