From his infamous cheating scandal to multiple car accidents, Tiger Woods' life has not been all bright lights and victories. Breaking Celebrity News can now take you inside all of the golfer's biggest controversies.

The golf icon was embroiled in infidelity allegations after the National Enquirer published a report with the headline, "Tiger Woods Cheating Scandal," in 2009. The piece detailed Woods' extramarital affairs with more than 120 women, including his months-long clandestine relationship with New York City nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel.

It mirrored what Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian wrote in the biography Tiger Woods, which disclosed that Woods arranged a phone call with his then-wife, Elin Nordegren, and Uchitel.

While the athlete was sleeping, Nordegren reportedly scrolled through his phone and found a person named "Jaimee Grubbs" in his call log. The same contact left a message, prompting Nordegren to reply, "You know who this is, because you are f------ my husband."

Woods later tried to call "Grubbs," but it went to voicemail.

"Hey, it's, uh ... it's Tiger," he said. "Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and, uh, may be calling you. So if you can, please take your name off that. And, um ... just have it as a number on the voicemail. OK? You got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. All right, bye."

The book also claimed Nordegren found a message Woods sent to an unknown number, which read, "You are the only one I've ever loved."

Nordegren, impersonating her then-husband, reportedly replied, "I miss you. When are we seeing each other again?" After receiving a response, she called the number and found out it belonged to Uchitel.

In December 2009, a woman came forward with evidence of a 31-month affair with Woods, which began after they met in 2007. Woods announced an indefinite leave from golf days later.

According to reports, Woods fled their home after Nordegren's call with Uchitel, with his then-wife holding a golf club as she chased him.

At around 2:30 a.m. on November 27, 2009, the golfer crashed his Cadillac Escalade into a fire hydrant and a tree near his home in Windermere, Fla. Nordegren, who was at the scene, used the golf club to smash the car's window to help him get out.

He was cited for careless driving and was fined $164 at the time.

Following the accident, Woods released a statement noting "the only person responsible" for what happened was him.

"My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false," he said. "As you all know, I had a single-car accident earlier this week and sustained some injuries. I have some cuts, bruising, and right now I'm pretty sore."

Woods continued, "This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human, and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again. This is a private matter, and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded, and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible."

In May 2017, a police officer in Jupiter, Florida, spotted a black Mercedes-Benz stopped in the right lane with its right blinker flashing and brake lights on. They approached the driver, who was asleep at the wheel, and found several pain medications.

The driver was later identified as Woods, who insisted he fell asleep due to a bad combination of his pain medication for his back issues. A toxicology report revealed he had five drugs in his system: Vicodin, Ambien, THC, Xanax, and Dilaudid.

Although he initially pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, he eventually entered a guilty plea to reckless driving and was ordered to serve 50 hours of community service along with one year of probation and a $250 fine.

"I understand the severity of what I did, and I take full responsibility for my actions," the pro golfer said in a statement. "I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn't realize the mix of medications had affected me so strongly."

He continued, "I would like to apologize with all my heart to my family, friends, and the fans. I expect more from myself, too."

Woods' worst crash yet occurred in February 2021 when he got involved in a single-car rollover crash in Los Angeles, California, shortly after the 2021 Genesis Invitational, leaving him with multiple serious leg injuries.

He underwent emergency surgery at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center to address his multiple open fractures in the tibia and fibula of his right leg, as well as injuries to his right foot and ankle.

Woods underwent a lengthy recovery period before he was able to return to the sport, though he has since developed permanent mobility limitations and chronic pain following the accident.

On March 27, Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek confirmed Woods had been arrested and charged with a DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test following a rollover collision in Jupiter Island, Florida, hours earlier.

"Just before 2 p.m. today, the Jupiter Island Police Department received a call about a rollover crash about two and a half miles from where we are," the sheriff disclosed. "The Jupiter Island Police Department responded out there and found a pickup truck pulling a pressure cleaner trailer and a Land Rover, which was rolled over on the driver's door."

The sheriff added, "The investigation started, and initially right off the top, it did appear that the driver of the Land Rover might be impaired."

Woods blew a 0.00 on a breathalyzer test but refused to undergo a urinalysis test.

He was booked into the Martin County Jail, where he was held for roughly eight hours post-DUI arrest due to Florida state statute. A mugshot was also taken before his release.

"He's in our jail, he will be there for at least eight hours, and then he'll be released on bond if he posts bond," Budensiek said at the time.

"As far as him being in the jail, we're going to make sure he's safe. We're not going to put him in the general population," Budensiek said after the arrest. "He's not going to be with other inmates that can hurt him or try to capitalize on what he did. He'll pay the price, but he's not going to pay the price by getting punished in jail."
