In 2004, the American was caught drunk-driving and sentenced to 18 months probation.<br /><br />Earlier this year the 24-year-old was banned for three months by USA Swimming after being pictured in a tabloid with a pipe used for smoking drugs. The subsequent fall-out prompted Phelps to seriously consider his future in the sport.<br /><br />His experiences have led the Baltimore swimmer to sympathise with Woods' position.<br /><br />Phelps said: "I'm wishing the best for him and his family. At a time like this you see who your actual friends are and who supports you. He is going through a hard time right now I assume, I've no idea what he is going through, but it can't be easy."
