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.

Ahmad Mulakhil was found guilty of rape and two counts of sexual assault following a trial last month, having already admitted a further rape charge.

He was also convicted of child abduction and taking an indecent video of the girl by the jury at Warwick Crown Court.

The court heard that Mulakhil arrived in the UK four months before committing the offences.

He had made an immigration application linked to "problems" he had experienced in Afghanistan.

The 23-year-old told the court he believed his victim to be 19 years old, and said she initiated a sexual encounter on 22 July last year.

But prosecutor Daniel Oscroft said Mulakhil's attempts to blame his victim were "stomach-churning" and "pretty revolting".

The victim, who cannot be named, said she was approached in a Nuneaton park by Mulakhil after playing on the swings. She said she had told her attacker to stop and that he was laughing while attacking her.

Sentencing Mulakhil, Judge Kristina Montgomery KC said the victim continues to suffer trauma responses and medical issues associated with the attack.

"Your victim was particularly vulnerable due to her personal circumstances and she has suffered significant and ongoing psychological harm," the judge said, adding that Mulakhil had "targeted" the girl.

She also said that the girl saying she was 19 was an "obvious" lie, with CCTV showing that "your reaction was incredulous and the jury's verdict leaves no doubt that you knew she was aged under 16".

"(After the attack), you left the area together but when you parted company, she was left alone in a park in the darkness for some time," the judge said.

"She was distressed, she was hypervigilant. Looking over her shoulder and into the woodland to see whether you were still in the area.

"She gave an immediate account of your sexual assault upon her. She was thereafter subjected to a medical examination and questioning by the police and latterly as you contested her allegations, cross examination in the court."

In addition to jailing Mulakhil, she sentenced him to an extra 12 months on license to follow his prison sentence.

The judge told Mulakhil the jail term of 15 years was long enough to automatically render him liable for deportation.

He was also ordered to register as a sex offender for life and made the subject of an indefinite sexual harm prevention order and a restraining order.

Mulakhil faced trial alongside Muhammad Kabir, also an Afghan asylum seeker, who was acquitted of charges of intentional strangulation, attempted child abduction and committing an offence with intent to commit a sexual offence.

The victim told the trial that she was approached in a park by both defendants.

The attack triggered large-scale anti-immigration protests in the town last summer. People also gathered outside the courthouse as the sentence was handed down and draped a banner saying "Stop the invasion, end immigration" over railings leading to the court.

The release included years-old pictures of Mr Patel, along with a work CV, and other personal records - many of them seemingly more than a decade old.

In a message posted on Friday, the hacker group Handala wrote: "Kash Patel, the current head of the FBI, who once saw his name displayed with pride on the agency's headquarters, will now find his name among the list of successfully hacked victims."

In a statement, the FBI said: "The FBI is aware of malicious actors targeting Director Patel's personal email information, and we have taken all necessary steps to mitigate potential risks associated with this activity."

The bureau added: "The information in question is historical in nature and involves no government information."

Earlier, a Department of Justice official told Reuters the material appeared to be authentic.

One of the hacked photos showed Mr Patel standing beside an antique sports car; another showed him with a cigar in his mouth.

Many of the records released appeared to relate to his personal travels and business in years past, before he was appointed to head the bureau.

It's not clear when the infiltration occurred, but Mr Patel was reportedly informed by the FBI in December 2024 that he had been targeted as part of an Iranian hack.

Handala, a pro-Iranian, pro-Palestinian hacking group, also took credit this month for a cyber attack on Stryker, a Michigan-based medical technology company.

They said it was in retaliation for US strikes that they claimed had killed Iranian schoolchildren.

On Sunday 29 March the time will jump forward an hour when it hits 1am - and yes, it means you will lose an extra hour of sleep.

But the gain of an hour of daylight will mean lighter evenings and darker mornings.

"Spring forward, fall back" has been part of our calendar for more than 100 years - but whether we should continue the practice is hotly debated.

But why are some people against the clocks changing - and why do we do it in the first place?

Here is what you need to know.

Why do we have daylight saving time?

The change from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to British Summer Time (BST) signifies the start of daylight saving time (DST) in the UK.

DST lasts from the last Sunday in March until the last Sunday in October, when the clocks go back an hour.

The day the clocks change always falls on a weekend to cause the least amount of disruption to schools and businesses.

It is a common belief that DST was introduced to help give farmers more daylight hours to work in the fields. But this is not exactly true.

George Hudson, a New Zealand entomologist - someone who studies insects - first campaigned for more evening sunlight back in the 1890s, so he could study his beloved bugs. It was the first time that changing the clocks around the seasons had been suggested seriously.

Jump to 1907 and British inventor William Willett - the man credited with bringing daylight saving to the UK - self-published a pamphlet called The Waste Of Daylight, in which he outlined his frustration with not getting the most out of summer days.

He initially proposed that clocks jump forward by 80 minutes in four incremental steps in April and reversed the same way in September - but he died before any law was implemented in the UK.

The first country to adopt DST was Germany in 1916, during the First World War. The UK followed suit a few weeks later.

How does daylight saving time affect your health?

Since the implementation of DST, and particularly the clocks going forward in spring, various studies have found that darker mornings and lighter evenings can cause havoc with some people's bodies.

In fact, sleep and dream researcher Charlie Morley said there is "overwhelming" evidence of the health issues the switch can cause.

"What research shows is what a massive effect on the body and mind, just one extra hour [of sleep] can have," Mr Morley told Sky News.

One study cited by the American Heart Foundation found there was a 24% increase in heart attacks on the day following the switch to daylight saving time - however the opposite effect has been identified in autumn, when the clocks go back.

Another study from 2016 in Finland found there were 8% more hospital admissions for the most common type of stroke in the two days after the shift to daylight savings.

When asked what symptoms losing an hour of sleep can lead to, Mr Morley said: "The interesting thing is when you get a really short amount of sleep, like four hours or less, the fear centre of the brain, known as the amygdala, becomes 60% more active.

"This can make it seem like everything is annoying, threatening or in conflict. So if you lose an hour of sleep, you might see an increase in the amygdala response, making you more grumpy and tetchy."

Seasonal affective disorder isn't just 'winter blues'

When clocks go back an hour, seasonal affective disorder (SAD) - a type of depression that comes and goes in a seasonal pattern - can worsen, mental health charity Change says.

The charity says individuals can also feel increasingly isolated by the limited daylight hours, and sleep cycles can be disrupted.

Should daylight saving be scrapped?

Whether to keep daylight saving or not has been a hotly debated question for many years, but was reignited in October last year, when the British Sleep Society called on the UK government to abolish the twice-yearly clock changes.

In an article at the time, researchers said due to the negative effect DST has on circadian and sleep health, the UK should abolish the change altogether and reinstate standard time throughout the year.

In reality, only about a third of the world's countries practice daylight saving time, according to the Pew Research Center.

US President Donald Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social in 2024 that he wanted to scrap DST. His secretary of state Marco Rubio has also called the ritual of changing time twice a year "stupid".

While most states in US continue to change their clocks twice a year, Arizona and Hawaii do not, the former due to its desert climate and the latter because of its location near the equator.

The European Parliament has previously voted for all EU member countries to scrap DST, but after the Parliament and EU Council couldn't reach an agreement on the legislation, it never became law.

One of the few places that doesn't follow DST in Europe is Iceland, due to its location and extreme variations in daylight throughout the year.

How to prepare for clock changes and the 'golden rule' of napping

Mr Morley says it is impossible to make up for lost sleep, but those worried ahead of daylight saving time can "front load sleep".

This involves someone getting "really good, quality sleep before entering a period of bad sleep".

Exposing yourself to natural sunlight first thing in the morning, eating meals based on the time of day it is where you are, minimise the use of caffeine and exercising can also all help treat negative effects of sleep deprivation.

Mr Morley added that napping can also be an effective way of dealing with sleep deprivation - but there are some hard and fast rules.

"The two golden rules of napping are it needs to be under an hour, so between 20 minutes and 60 minutes, and the nap needs to end six hours before you intend to go to bed again," he explained.

"There is a chemical called adenosine, which is known as the tiredness chemical, and it takes around five to six hours to build up. So if you want to go to bed at midnight, as long as your nap ends up 5pm you have got enough time for adenosine to build up, and you will be tired enough to go to bed."

She won the long jump title when she competed at the Tokyo Games in 1964.

Rand, who was born in Wells, Somerset, broke the British and Olympic records with her first attempt at 6.59 metres, and in her final effort she smashed the world record with a leap of 6.76m.

Aged 24 at the time, she also won silver in the inaugural women's pentathlon, and bronze as a member of the 4x100m relay team in Japan, becoming the first British woman to win gold, silver and bronze at a single Olympics.

No British woman has held the gold title since.

In a post on X, UK Athletics said: "UK Athletics is saddened to hear of the death of Olympic, European and Commonwealth champion Mary Rand, at the age of 86.

"She became the first British woman to win three medals at a single Olympic Games at Tokyo 1964 and blazed a trail for women in the sport."

Rand also won long jump gold at the 1966 Commonwealth Games in Jamaica.

But she was forced to retire at the young age of 28 due to injury, and did not get to defend her Olympic title.

Rand first married British rower Sydney, with whom she had a daughter, before marrying American Bill Toomey, the 1968 Olympic decathlon champion, and moving to the US.

They were together for 22 years, and had two daughters.
