Bodycam video from the moments before the arrest of Tiger Woods is now public.

The Martin County Sheriff's Office releasing a two-minute clip today that shows the golfer kneeling in the grass near his overturned SUV, telling a Jupiter Island Police officer what he was doing just before he clipped the back of a trailer being towed by a pickup truck.

As the officer turns on the audio on his body camera, you can hear Woods say "...looked down at my phone and all of a sudden 'boom!'"

The officer then pats him down after asking him if it's 'comfortable for you' to which Woods says 'Yeah, yeah.'

The officer indicates to others on the scene that they didn't find anything, but it was later noted that two Hydrocodone tablets were found in Woods' pocket.

A second video clip shows Woods struggling with roadside sobriety tests, after which a deputy handcuffs him and tells him that his 'normal faculties are impaired' and that he is 'under an unknown substance.' The female deputy says "At this time you're under arrest for DUI."

That's when a search of his pockets by other deputies turns up what the Sheriff's Office has identified as Hydrocodone.

He passed a breathalyzer test but refused a urinalysis and was charged with a misdemeanor for that and DUI property damage.

Woods has pleaded not guilty to both charges, announced he's walking away from golf to focus on his health and was granted the right to leave the country for treatment by a judge yesterday.
