Golf legend Tiger Woods’ teammates say he will face consequences after his DUI arrest in Florida following a rollover crash.
“I feel bad for him, (but) I don’t like sugar-coated things,” former PGA golfer Mark Lye said during Saturday’s episode. “Fox & Friends Weekend.”
“And the way I see it, there should be some type of punishment or withdrawal or some type of suspension from the game.”
The former golf professional said “there should be some accountability” for the five-time Masters champion, whom he called “a gift to golf.”
“I’m just wondering where the discipline he’s learned on the golf course will carry over into his personal life,” he said. “There are devils running around in it.”
Lai also said during the appearance that he wonders if “enough is enough” when it comes to indiscretions such as Woods’ recent arrest.
He also said that golf and pro athlete contracts often have “morality clauses”, and he worries that if “they don’t control that,” their problems could get worse.
“25 years of great golf can be wiped out in a heartbeat,” Lee said, expressing gratitude that Woods was not injured in Friday’s rollover accident.
According to Fox News, PGA Tour announcer Doug Bell also echoed Lai’s gratitude, saying the accident was not worse.
According to the outlet, Bell said, “It’s hard to see what happened yesterday,” adding that “a pattern has developed” with Woods.
He added, “Let’s hope this leads to something positive for one of the greatest athletes and personalities this world has seen in a long time.”
Bell also expressed sympathy for Woods’ physical pain following injuries sustained in a roller crash in 2021 in Palos Verdes, Los Angeles.
“He’s struggling with something that we don’t know about that’s going on inside his head, the pain that he’s having because of all the surgeries,” he said. Removing himself from golf “could be the best thing” for Woods, Bell said.
Woods’ rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment Saturday.
Woods, 50, was arrested on Friday and charged with DUI, damage to property and refusing to submit to a lawful test following an incident that occurred just after 2 p.m. in his Land Rover in Jupiter Island, Florida.
