I watch a lot of golf, but somehow missed that story. However, I googled it, and came up with this from an article @ Golf Today:
"Woods last played Phoenix in 1999, when police wrestled a drunken man to the ground and found a loaded pistol in his backpack. Woods' agent said at the time that Woods wouldn't return unless security was tightened".
When I took the concealed carry class here in Houston, we were told that drinking, let alone drunkenness is not allowed if you are carrying a weapon. If the dude @ Phoenix was actually drunk, I would question whether his concealed weapon was "legal". He probably had a driver's license as well, but it too is void if he was drunk.

I haven’t studied the CC laws here but I seriously doubt that it is illegal to carry if under the influence UNLESS the weapon is brandished.
As to having a D/L, it is perfectly legal to have a D/L while drunk. Your D/L is NOT “voided”. You just are not allowed to drive.
