Looks like Tiger Woods has been doing some gambling in central New York. The embattled golf star had an “elite� players card from an upstate casino in his wallet when he was arrested earlier this week, according to the police report. A description of Woods’ personal property lists the exclusive piece of plastic, along with other small things like his cell phone, watch and key ring. Dubbed the “Turning Stone Elite Card,� it’s considered the highest level of players’ card issued by the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona. Woods has played at their golf course several times before in the past, with his last visit coming in 2015, the Democrat & Chronicle reports. The sports icon made headlines

Another public embarrassment for Tiger Woods is shifting to the legal side following his arrest in Florida on a DUI charge, with one criminal expert suggesting Woods made a mistake by claiming publicly that prescription medicine was to blame. On the eve of the Memorial Tournament, which Woods won a record five times, PGA Tour players who grew up admiring his dominance in golf wished for the best. Commissioner Jay Monahan said the tour would be there to help him. “I think Tiger’s statement on Monday night, where he apologized and he said he was going to do everything he can in his power to make sure this doesn’t happen again, I think says everything,” Monahan told Sports Betting News on Wednesday.
