Tiger Woods Changes Plea to Guilty in Florida DUI Case, Faces License SuspensionPreviousNext

Tiger Woods plans to change his not guilty plea in a Florida DUI case following a March rollover crash where his SUV clipped a truck and rolled onto its side. Woods initially pleaded not guilty but is now expected to enter a plea agreement, resulting in a guilty plea to reckless driving. He will face a five-year driver's license suspension. Authorities noted impairment signs and found prescription painkillers on Woods, who has sought treatment at an inpatient facility abroad. No injuries were reported in the crash.
