Tiger Woods was arrested in March for driving under influence

American golfer Tiger Woods has made his anticipated return to sicla media with an emotional post weeks after being arrested following a car crash.

In March, the pro golfer was involved in a car crash which prompted his arrest for driving under influence.

On Monday, May 25, he made his return to Instagram honoring his late father, veteran Earl Woods.

In an emotional Instagram post, he wrote “My father was a Special Forces operator with two tours in Vietnam and 20 years of service.”

He added “To all those like my father, we all say thank you for your sacrifices. Without them we wouldn't have the greatest country on Earth.”

The 50-year-old’s father passed away in 2006 at the age of 76.

The 15-time Major champion was arrested after crashing his Range Rover on a two-lane road near his home in Jupiter Island, Florida on March 27.

He was charged with DUI which he pleaded not guilty to. He later announced that he was taking time away to get rehabilitation.

While no one was injured in the crash, this marked the third car accident the golf star has been involved in.
