Kevin Kisner, a PGA Tour golfer and Golf League teammate of Tiger Woods, expressed concern for the golf legend following his arrest for drunk driving in Florida on Friday.
Kisner spoke about the incident while in the booth for NBC’s coverage of the Houston Open on Saturday.
“Very disturbing. He was working really hard on his game, trying to practice and get in shape,” he said via Fried Egg Golf. “He signed up for the US Senior Open yesterday. He was trying to do everything he could to come back and try to help our TGL team, prepare, and hopefully try to play the Masters.

“It’s just a really unfortunate incident I guess, Brad (Faxon), the only positive is no one was hurt in the incident and we can all move forward and hopefully help him get better.”
Woods returned to the Golf League for his first round of real competition as he underwent further surgeries on his back and to repair a torn Achilles tendon.
On Friday, Woods was involved in an accident on Jupiter Island. He was later arrested after refusing to give a urine sample. He was released from the Martin County Jail Friday evening.
In his booking photo, Woods’ eyes appeared bloodshot, as he wore a blue polo shirt. Woods was seen leaving the jail in the passenger seat of a black SUV after his release on bail Friday evening, according to the Associated Press.

Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said at a news conference that Woods was driving at “a high rate of speed” when his vehicle collided with another car, causing his vehicle to flip onto the driver’s side.
Authorities said Woods “is an example of signs of impairment.” He blew the “triple zeros” for alcohol but refused the urine test.
“DUI investigators came to the scene here, and Mr. Woods showed signs of impairment. They did several tests on him. Of course, he explained the injuries and surgeries he had. We took that into account, but they did extensive road tests,” Budensiek added.
“We really didn’t suspect that alcohol was involved in this case, and that proved true at the jail. … But when it came time for us to request a urinalysis, he refused. And so he was charged with driving while intoxicated, criminal damage to property, and refusal to submit to a lawful test.”
Woods was seen on the phone after the accident, wearing navy blue shorts.
He has made no comment on his arrest since the incident.
