Newly released bodycam footage shows fifteen-time major champion Tiger Woods calling President Donald Trump from the scene of his DUI arrest last Friday (March 27).

Woods, 50, was seen waiting patiently in the police cruiser while officers prepped his field sobriety test and, at one point, walked away to chat with a person on the phone who he claimed was Trump in footage shared by TMZ Sports.

“Yeah, I was just talking with the president," Woods said after an officer corralled him back to the cruiser.

Woods is dating Vanessa Trump, the ex-wife of the president's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., and had received the Medal of Freedom during the first Trump administration in 2019. The president said Woods' announcement that he was stepping back from golf to focus on his health was "a good thing that he's doing, but he's going to end up being terrific.

"He’s a great guy,” Trump told Reuters. “He’s ⁠one of the greatest people I’ve known. He’s a great champion … he’ll be fine.”

Woods appeared to be surprised about being handcuffed after a crash that resulted in driving under the influence with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test charges last Friday. The footage also showed deputies removing two pills from Woods' pocket at the scene.

"I do believe your normal faculties are impaired, and you're under an unknown substance, so at this time you're under arrest for DUI," Martin County Sheriff's Deputy Tatiana Levenar told Woods after conducting a sobriety test in the footage.

Woods claimed her was looking at his phone and changing the radio station when his Land Rover collided with the trailer's left rear fender and flipped onto the driver's side, though no injuries were reported.

"I'm being arrested?" Woods responded while standing alongside the road.

"Yes, sir," Levenar said.

Woods said "that's a Norco" when an officer pulled the pills out of his pocket. Norco is a painkiller that contains acetaminophen and the opioid hydrocodone, the latter of which authorities later confirmed was in the golfer's possession at the time.

Woods was arrested and taken to the Martin County Jail, where he took a breathalyzer test that confirmed he wasn't under the influence of alcohol, but refused a urinalysis test, which resulted in the charges. Woods, widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential golfers of all-time ranks second all-time behind only Nicklaus (18) in career majors and has 82 PGA Tour victories, tied with Sam Snead for the most all-time.
