Despite not playing in the Texas Children's Houston Open this weekend, Tiger Woods still had supporters out in force. 

Days after his arrest, the 50-year-old managed to attract attention at the Texas tournament on Sunday. However, it was for all the wrong reasons. 

There was great fanfare for the 15-time major winner as a group of spectators showed their support for him, despite him being arrested 1,300  miles away in Jupiter just days earlier. 

Woods was arrested for DUI on Friday after he attempted to overtake a truck and trailer at high speed on a residential Jupiter Island road, before clipping the back of the vehicle and tipping his own SUV onto its side.

After clambering out of the passenger-side window, he refused to give a urine sample to cops and was arrested for DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. He was booked in jail on Friday afternoon and had his latest mugshot taken before being released later that night. 

And that mugshot managed to make it all the way to Houston, where his diehard supporters were captured sporting white t-shirts with the image of a bleary-Woods emblazoned on the front.

Underneath the print of Woods' mugshot, the message, '#FreeTiger,' was written. 

The antics were reminiscent of the scenes at the PGA Championship two years ago when World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler was arrested at the gates of Valhalla after a fatal accident caused traffic to halt.

Scheffler was detained and led away by police in astonishing scenes after trying to make his way into the golf club for his second round of the tournament. 

After being booked into jail, Scheffler was eventually released by cops and able to return to Valhalla in time to tee off just after 10am ET.

Yet, fans wasted no time. following his dramatic arrest, fans were seen donning t-shirts containing photos of his already-infamous police mugshot and the slogan 'Free Scottie' by the time Scheffler hit the course. 

Following the shocking events of Friday afternoon, golf fans had followed the example, cobbling together Woods replicas for the Houston Open.

Cops released Woods' latest remarkable mugshot to the public shortly after 10pm on Friday, with his eyes puffy and bloodshot in the image. An hour later, he was bonded out and driven away from Martin County Public Safety Complex, as fans and reporters swarmed the car for a glimpse of him. 

In photos taken by a Daily Mail photographer, he can be seen looking stony-faced with his lips pursed, before momentarily glancing out of the passenger side window at the gathered masses before disappearing into the night.

At the scene of the accident, Woods passed a breathalyzer test after showing 'triple zeros', but then refused to give a urine sample twice, once on the roadside and then again at the jail.

'He is cooperative, but he was not trying to incriminate himself, so he was careful in what he said and didn't say,' Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek explained. 'When it came time again for the test, the urine test at the jail, he stopped that.

'On scene, we had [Drug Recognition] experts evaluating him and they believed from on scene that he was not impaired with alcohol, but they believe it was some type of medication or drug. And again, at the jail he cooperated with the breathalyzer, and then the urine [test] he wanted no part in.

'He has a right to refuse that test. There is a statute that he will be charged with for refusing to take that test, but we will never get definitive results as to what he was impaired on at the time of the crash.'

Woods was involved in a similar crash in 2021 in California, which shattered his right leg after he was trapped under the vehicle. He needed multiple surgeries in order to recover from his injuries.

He was also previously pictured in a police mugshot in 2017 after being arrested for his first DUI, when police found him slumped in his car in Florida with five drugs in his system, including two painkillers.
