Golf superstar Tiger Woods looks disoriented and unsteady in police video of his Monday arrest on a charge of driving under the influence, according to footage obtained and broadcast by US media on Wednesday.

The video, from a dashboard camera in the vehicle of Jupiter, Florida, police officers, shows Woods unable to tie his shoe and wobbling as he tries to walk along a straight line in a field sobriety test.

Woods has blamed the DUI arrest near his home on an adverse reaction to prescription medication.

The police report on the incident, made public on Tuesday, said Woods was “cooperative” and “confused” when found by police, with “extremely slow and slurred speech.”

The video seen on Wednesday backs up that report.

Woods is unable to follow a light with his eyes when asked to do so. When officers ask if he understands instructions to recite the alphabet, he says he was asked “not to sing the national anthem backwards.”

At one point in the sobriety tests Woods asks, “What are we doing?”
