WASHINGTON -- Golf legend Tiger Woods was arrested around 3 am Monday on suspicion of driving under the influence in Florida according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.

According to the booking blotter on the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office's website, Woods was booked at 7:18 a.m. and released on his own recognizance at 10:50 a.m.

It's unclear whether Woods tested positive for alcohol or drugs. It's also unknown at this time whether Woods was the only person in the vehicle.

Woods, 41, returned to professional golf in December after a 15-month layoff, during which he recovered from multiple back surgeries. Woods has won 14 majors, but his last major championship was at the U.S. Open in 2008.
