- Tiger Woods announced on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, that he is stepping away from golf to seek treatment, days after his arrest for driving under the influence in Florida.

- A history of serious injuries, including a 2021 rollover, frames this hiatus as Woods stated he is "committed to taking the time needed to return" to full health.
