Tiger Woods was granted permission to travel outside the United States to begin treatment he said he would seek after his DUI arrest Friday in Jupiter Island, Fla.

Woods’ attorney, Douglas N. Duncan, filed a motion requesting permission to leave the country, which was granted by Judge Darren Steele.

“Based upon the Defendant’s treating physician, the out of country treatment facility recommendation is based upon the Defendant’s complex clinical presentation and the urgent need for a level of care that cannot safely or effectively be done within the United States as his privacy has been repeatedly compromised,” court documents obtained by Fox News Digital said.

“Ongoing medical scrutiny and public exposure create significant barriers to his care and would result in setbacks and an inability to fully engage in treatment.”

It’s unknown where exactly Woods would travel for treatment, though the court documents included the “treatment facility will provide continuous monitoring and the ability to rapidly adjust treatment interventions in a highly controlled environment.”

Woods announced he would be stepping away from golf to seek treatment “and focus on my health” after his DUI arrest after a rollover crash.

“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,” Woods said in a statement posted on social media.

“I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.

“I’m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time.”

Woods released the statement Tuesday after entering a plea of not guilty, waiving his right to an arraignment and demanding a trial with a jury. He was arrested on charges of driving under the influence with property damage and refusal to submit to a blood alcohol level (BAL) test after law enforcement said his vehicle collided with another while he drove impaired.

After Woods was placed under arrest at the crash site, where law enforcement noted he was “sweating profusely” in an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital, he was found to have “two white pills” inside a pants pocket. They were later identified as hydrocodone, a prescription pain relief opioid.

Woods submitted to a Breathalyzer test after being booked in Martin County Jail, clearing a 0.00 result on both samples. However, he declined to submit a urine test, which resulted in another charge.

It’s the second DUI arrest for Woods in the last decade. He was also taken into custody on Jupiter Island in 2017 after being asleep behind the wheel of a running vehicle at 3 a.m. after taking prescription drugs.

Woods had just returned to The Golf League earlier this month for his first round of competition since undergoing more surgeries on his back while also needing to repair a torn Achilles.

There was a chance Woods would make an appearance at the Masters Tournament next week, but Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley confirmed that Woods would not be in the field for the first major of 2026.

Woods’ TGL teammate, Kevin Kisner, also noted recently that Woods signed up for the U.S. Senior Open, which tees off in early July.
