'Terrified' Tiger Woods Facing 'Dark Cloud' of Possible Jail Time Amid DUI Legal Battle: Report

Tiger Woods is feeling the heat as the golfer faces the "possibility" of jail time in his ongoing DUI case.

The golf champion, 50, has been advised to “focus on sobriety and overall health," following his DUI arrest on March 27, but that has reportedly been "proving impossible with all the legal wrangling and red tape" being used against him, according to sources.

Woods was arrested and charged with a DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test after allegedly flipping his Land Rover while trying to avoid "a pickup truck pulling a pressure cleaner trailer."

The athlete claimed he was distracted by his phone and changing the radio station, not realizing a vehicle had moved into his lane, and said he wasn't able to react in time.

Following the crash, authorities said they found two hydrocodone pills and a prescription painkiller in his pants pocket.

Woods' legal team suffered a setback in court last month after objecting to the potential subpoena of his prescription drug records, per TC Palm. Both sides eventually agreed to a protective order, which restricted access to the documents in the interest of privacy.

"He has to be kept up to date on all this stuff, but every day seems to bring more bad news, and this latest blow has hit him hard," the insider said of the professional athlete's prescription drug records. "He says it’s an outrageous violation of his privacy as well as a clear indicator that the authorities will stop at nothing to throw the book at him."

This isn't Woods' first brush with the law, as he's been involved in four crashes since 2009, notably taking a plea deal for a 2017 DUI bust.

"There’s still the remote possibility of jail time, which is hanging over him like a dark cloud 24/7 even though it’s highly unlikely to happen," the source concluded. "Tiger feels like he’s serving his dues right now but he’s not being allowed to move on because he’s being punished by the system. He’s terrified of the legal battle that awaits him. It’s causing a ton of anxiety."

Following his arrest, the 5-time Masters Tournament Champion reportedly jetted off to an "exclusive and ultra-expensive" rehab facility on April 3 in Zurich, Switzerland.
