Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said a Land Rover, which the golf legend was driving, tried to overtake a truck "at high speeds" before it swerved and rolled on to its side after clipping a truck towing a trailer.

He said Woods showed "signs of impairment" after the incident, which happened shortly after 2pm local time on Friday and not far from where the golfer lives on Jupiter Island.

Woods, 50, took a breathalyser test after his arrest, which came back negative, but the golfer then refused to give a urine sample, police said.

Sheriff Budensiek told reporters during a news conference: "When it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, and so he has been charged with DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test."

None of the parties involved in the crash reported injuries.

Pointing to how the smash unfolded on a small, two-lane road, Sheriff Budensiek said it was lucky no one was injured.

"Had there been someone moving in the opposite direction, we would not be having a conversation saying there was no injuries. This could've been a lot worse," Sheriff Budensiek said.

"He [Woods] was lethargic on scene but that we believe was because of what he was intoxicated on."

The vehicle Woods hit was a truck towing a pressure cleaner trailer.

The truck driver tried to "edge off" the side of the road to get out of the way but there was not enough room, the sheriff explained during an update on Friday.

It is not known if Woods was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash, as he "crawled out of the passenger door" prior to police arriving at the scene.

Woods was held in custody in Martin County Jail for around eight hours before he was released on bail.

'Very close friend' of Trump

President Donald Trump, whose former daughter-in-law Vanessa Trump is dating Woods, was asked about the golfer when he landed in Miami on Friday for an investment summit.

"I feel so badly. He's got some difficulty," Mr Trump said. "Very close friend of mine. He's an amazing person. Amazing man. But, some difficulty."

This was the latest in a series of vehicle-related incidents involving Woods, most recently in February 2021 when his SUV ran off a coastal road in Los Angeles at a high rate of speed, leading to multiple leg and ankle injuries.

Woods said later his injuries were so bad that doctors considered amputation.

He also was arrested on a DUI charge in 2017 when South Florida police found him asleep behind the wheel of his car that was parked awkwardly with damage to the driver's side.

He later pleaded guilty to reckless driving after it emerged he had had five prescription drugs in his system at the time.

In 2009 he crashed his car into a fire hydrant and tree outside his Florida home - an accident which inadvertently led to a spectacular unravelling of his private life.

Woods' then wife, Elin Nordegren, used a golf club to smash a window of his Cadillac Escalade to get him out.

'I'm not perfect'

"This situation is my fault and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me," Woods said on his official website at the time.

"I'm human and I'm not perfect."

The incident revealed a bitter marital dispute with Nordegren, as a host of women came forward to admit to having had extramarital affairs with Woods.

Woods and Nordegren divorced in August 2010.

The latest crash comes after Woods returned to competitive action for the first time in over a year on the final night of play in the indoor TGL competition on Tuesday.

He had said afterwards that he hoped he would be fit enough to play at the Masters next month.

Woods is widely regarded as one of the greatest golfers ​of all time. His major titles include five Masters, three US Opens, three British Opens and four PGA Championships.

Having fought athletics chiefs over her own gender eligibility, the double Olympic champion is shaping up for a new battle with the International Olympic Committee.

"If we have to say women must stop taking part in Olympics, so be it," the South African said in an exclusive interview with Sky News.

"I will encourage athletes to come together as a class action ... because this does not make sense. It does not save women's sport."

The South African is encouraging a challenge against the landmark decision to reintroduce sex testing alongside banning transgender women and athletes - like herself - with differences in sex development (DSD) from women's competitions.

"I'm fighting for women's dignity," Semenya said. "Those who say, 'I am not going to be tested to prove that I'm a woman' ... I will encourage them to do that to stop this nonsense."

This goes beyond sport since Donald Trump seized on stopping "men beat and batter female athletes".

IOC President Kirsty Coventry, a former Olympic champion swimmer, and many other women in sport now align with the US president.

The Zimbabwean determined it is not fair for biological males to compete in the female competitions because physiological advantages of having gone through male puberty, or the presence of XY chromosomes, can be the difference in determining medals.

"This regulation is totally shameful," Semenya said. "It's something that her as a president should have not allowed such to happen."

But the IOC has said there is at least a 10% advantage in most running and swimming events for men - rising beyond 100% for sports requiring "explosive power" like boxing, which creates dangers beyond fairness of competitions.

I put this to Semenya.

"Based on what?" she responded. "There's no scientific proof about what has been said. It's an ideology."

The full scientific research behind the decision has not been published. Nor has the IOC said what has changed in recent years scientifically or medically.

But is it not clear in combat sports there are safety concerns when a biological woman takes on a fighter who was born a man, with higher testosterone levels and greater muscle mass?

"What do you expect in boxing?" Semenya responded. "We understand that it's a dangerous sport. We all sign in, in all sporting codes, knowing that there are safety precautions.

"There are risks, but you cannot come and then try to measure someone's power based on how they look because you think they're intersex or you think that they're transgender."

Semenya has become the face of scrutiny of eligibility rules since her gender was questioned based on her appearance after winning gold at the world athletics championships as a 19-year-old in 2009.

Enforced verification tests showed that while she always identified as female and had female traits, Semenya also had the typical male XY chromosome pattern and high levels of naturally occurring testosterone.

After being cleared to race, Semenya was still able to win Olympic gold in 2012 and 2016.

But then she refused to artificially reduce her hormone levels as required by World Athletics and lost further legal challenges. So the 35-year-old now coaches.

Mandatory sex verification testing for all entrants into Olympic women's events will ensure a competitor isn't singled out for tests because they might have masculine characteristics.

The IOC's stance has transformed since ruling out a return to the "bad old days" of sex testing during Paris 2024 when Thomas Bach was in charge.

But Semenya said: "There is no respect for women. The minute you start asking a woman to be tested to take part in sports, that's not dignity."

When the IOC said this policy would apply to all their events I asked Ms Coventry if that includes the Youth Olympics. It does, meaning girls as young as 15 will have to take sex tests.

She said: "We really went above and beyond, I think, talking to a lot of different athletes, around how the process should be followed and what does that look like, and the support networks that need to be in place."

For Semenya this just adds to safeguarding issues.

"Testing a girl, a child, it is harmful and it is shameful," she said.

Will the rules stand up to a legal challenge ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics?

While Semenya says she is fighting for the dignity of women, the IOC insists this is about protecting the safety and integrity of women's sport but could need to produce more evidence.

James Wall stole Gucci and Cartier watches, a diamond ring and foreign currency during a burglary at a home in Southborough, Tunbridge Wells, at around 5.45pm on 13 December, Kent Police said.

Wall, of Beverston Gardens in Bristol, Somerset, pleaded guilty to burglary at Maidstone Crown Court on Wednesday and was sentenced to two years' in prison.

Police were called when he verbally abused a witness who challenged his reason for being in the area, the force said.

The 20-year-old was driven away from the scene in a silver Vauxhall Insignia, but patrols spotted the car within an hour.

The vehicle was seen reaching speeds of almost 100mph along the hard shoulder before it was brought to a halt near a slip road on the A2 near Wilmington, where the driver had attempted to travel the wrong way on the carriageway, police said.

A 38-year-old man was arrested at the scene in connection with driving offences and has been released pending further investigation. However, Wall had already fled and a dog handler was deployed to find him.

He was tracked down to a chip shop near Bexley where he was recognised due to his neon-coloured T-shirt, which he was wearing under a tracksuit.

Officers found and arrested him while he was eating a portion of fish and chips with an energy drink as he waited for staff behind the counter to charge his phone.

The device was seized and digital forensic analysis placed Wall at the scene of the crime, police said.

Police subsequently found two jewellery boxes, two false vehicle registration plates and a jewellery cleaning cloth inside the abandoned vehicle.

Detective Constable Celia King said: "Despite being confronted with a plethora of evidence proving he was responsible for the burglary, Wall initially refused to accept liability and laughed while watching footage from the pursuit.

"The judge took into consideration the high levels of planning involved in the burglary.

"As a result, Wall was handed an immediate custodial sentence."

Officers were called at 9.35pm on Friday to reports that The Big Mill on Mill Street, Leek, was on fire, Staffordshire Police said.

No-one was injured and a fire investigation is taking place, the force added.

Police announced on Saturday morning that an 18-year-old man from Leek had been arrested on suspicion of arson with recklessness as to whether life was endangered and was in custody.

Drone footage showed huge flames covering the entire building, with the roof no longer in place and a section of a wall missing.

Six crews worked to contain the fire at its height, with four crews remaining by midday on Saturday.

While the blaze is under control, it is yet to be extinguished because firefighters are unable to enter the building, Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service said.

Station manager Jonathan Ashby said: "The large cordon is still in place and we're expected to be in the area for some time whilst we work to bring the incident to a safe and swift conclusion."

Various road closures were put in place and officers supported residents who had been evacuated from their homes as a precaution, police added.

The fire service said that the cause will be determined after an investigation.

It advised people not to drive near the area and those living nearby to keep doors and windows closed. Residents claimed the derelict building appeared "completely burned out".

The six-storey mill dates back to 1860 and is an important example of a large-scale building for the silk industry, according to the Historic England website.

It represents one of the earliest mill buildings on this scale in Leek, the public body adds.

It also notes that the building is a good example of the mill-style developed by William Sugden, the leading mill architect at work in Leek at this time.

The site had been derelict for several years and a planning application had previously been submitted to convert the building to 55 apartments.

Dame Karen Bradley, the Conservative Staffordshire Moorlands MP, said on social media that she was "so sad to see the terrible fire at the Big Mill".

The vacancy rate for sonographers is 24.2% across England, rising to 38.2% in some areas, according to the Society of Radiographers (SoR).

In addition, one in every 13 (7.6%) sonographers are planning to retire within the next year, the census found.

Sonographers carry out ultrasound scans which are essential to pregnancy care and are also used to diagnose cancer.

Pregnant women undergo scans when their baby is 12 weeks old and again at 20 weeks.

Katie Thompson, SoR president and a practising sonographer, said shortages forced hospitals to pull in practitioners from other areas to keep the antenatal services going at the "expense of those other services".

"Hospitals try their very best to get the three-month and five-month antenatal screening scans done on time," she said.

"But when there aren't enough staff, prioritising those scans has a knock-on effect on more urgent later foetal growth scans, which in some cases need to be done within 24 or 36 hours.

"Departments end up struggling to fit in patients who need these emergency scans."

Ms Thompson said ultrasound also played a role in cancer diagnosis, with a patient's "first investigation" often being an ultrasound.

Follow up care after treatment "often takes the form of regular ultrasound scans", she said.

"The government's recent cancer plan spoke about increasing testing and reducing waiting lists," she said.

"But sonography is one of the beginning points for people being diagnosed with cancer.

"With the current workforce shortfall, it's going to be very, very hard to decrease waiting times.

"And if cancers aren't picked up when they should be, that can have an effect on the patient's outcome."

The highest vacancy rates for sonographers were in the South East of England, where almost two in five posts are vacant (38.2%).

There is also a 34.6% shortfall in London, and three in 10 positions in the North West are vacant (30%).

In the North East and Yorkshire there is a lesser shortfall of 11%, the SoR said.

Ms Thompson said training new sonographers "takes quite a while, so increasing numbers can't be done very quickly".

"The fact that numbers are dropping shows that the number of sonographers being trained isn't keeping up with demand and hasn't kept up for a long time," she said.

She said the government's plans to improve health care, through the anticipated release of its NHS workforce plan and recent cancer plan, would be undone by staff shortages.

"You can't say that you're going to invest in all these new scanners and open all these community diagnostic centres unless you've thought about the professionals who are going to conduct the scans and provide patient care," she said.

A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: "We recognise the pressures facing diagnostic services, including the sonography workforce, and we are taking action to ensure the NHS has the skilled staff it needs to meet rising demand and deliver timely care to patients.

"We have already taken action to expand services for patients, rolling out new community diagnostic centres and expanding opening hours, keeping patients away from busy hospitals and cared for in their local communities."
