Back in May, officials found Tiger Woods asleep in his car in the middle of a highway in Jupiter, Florida. Upon his arrest, Woods failed several field sobriety tests but later clarified that he had not been drinking at the time of the incident. However, he did admit to being on several prescribed medications to help with his treatment for his previous back surgeries.

About a month after the arrest, Woods revealed that he was going to seek professional help to help manage his medications to prevent another public spectacle like the May arrest. In July, Woods completed his treatment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, a new report has surfaced, detailing the cocktail of drugs that were found in Woods’ system that night.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
According to CNN, Woods’ urine test revealed hydrocodone, hydromorphone, Xanax, Ambien and metabolites of alprazolam and THC. However, Woods quickly released a statement about the drugs, reiterating that he received treatment to help manage his intake.

“Recently, I had been trying on my own to treat my pain and a sleep disorder, including insomnia, but I realized now it was a mistake to do this
without medical assistance. I am continuing to work with my doctors, and they feel I’ve made significant progress. I remain grateful for the
amazing support that I continue to receive and for the family and friends that are assisting me,” he said.

“Regarding my back, I recently spoke to my surgeon and he’s very pleased with how my fusion is healing. I’m right on schedule. I’m now doing
some light lifting, riding a stationary bike and putting a little.”
