New footage of Tiger Woods’ arrest has been released.

TMZ shared the video on Thursday, April 2, and it showed the golf pro kneeling on the grass and speaking to officers who responded to the accident. Authorities asked him if he was “comfortable” in that position, and he said he was.

“I looked down at my phone … and all of a sudden – boom,” Woods, 50, said in the clip.

While the Masters champion insisted he was fine after crashing his Range Rover, the police officer said that medical professionals would still check him for injuries.

Law enforcement also spoke with the truck driver, who said he was trying to turn into a driveway but couldn’t move out of the way in time. He wasn’t injured, although he was unsure if the damaged trailer could be driven from the scene.

As Globe previously reported, Woods was arrested and charged with DUI on March 27. According to police reports, he appeared “lethargic and slow” after the crash, was sweating excessively and had “extremely dilated” pupils.

While he blew a 0.0 on a breathalyzer test and claimed he hadn’t consumed any alcohol or illegal substances, Page Six obtained an arrest affidavit from the Martin County Sheriff’s Office that stated officers “located two white pills inside [his] left side pant pocket.” The affidavit said they were later “revealed to be hydrocodone.”

On Tuesday, March 31, Woods pleaded not guilty to the DUI charge.

“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,” he wrote in a statement shared via X later that same day. “I 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.”
