One former PGA Tour pro thinks Tiger Woods should put away his golf clubs for good.

near his home in Jupiter Island, Fla., nearly nine years after his first DUI arrest. And Chamblee, the Golf Channel analyst and former PGA Tour pro, doesn’t think it’s worth it for Woods to continue on the links.

“Why would he need to play golf anymore? I think he should probably ask himself that. Consider not playing golf anymore,” Chamblee said Friday on “Golf Central.”released from jail Friday night several hours after he was booked on a DUI charge. The 15-time major champion was allegedly under the influence of “some type of medication or drug,” Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said Friday.Chamblee, 63, says playing on the Champions Tour for golfers 50 and over “will add nothing to legacy.”Tiger Woods is driven from the Martin County Jail in Stuart, Fla. after his DUI arrest on March 27, 2026.“It’s clear that Tiger Woods has a history of pushing himself to his physical limits, beyond his physical limits,” Chamblee said. “The stories are of him not needing a lot of sleep — when you sleep, your body repairs itself. He’s up 2, 3, 4 o’clock in the morning at the gym grinding it out all day long, it puts considerable stress on what is already a fractured and fragile body. “To the degree that he keeps hurting himself, injuring himself, requiring surgeries … those surgeries and injuries come along with prescribed pain medication. And unless you’ve had your head in the sand for the last 20, 30 years, you can connect the dots to the pain mediation and the addiction to the pain medication. Those are just generally speaking. I’m not speculating here about what was in Tiger Woods’ system.” Woods has undergone more than a handful of back surgeries, most recently a disc replacement while he was recovering from a torn Achilles. He also shattered his leg during a 2021 car crash in California, where cops said he was going more than 80 mph.Previously, he left the door open to play in next month’s Masters.Tiger Woods is driven from the Martin County Jail in Stuart, Fla. after his DUI arrest on March 27, 2026.
