Fox News • • nation
Key Points:
- Tiger Woods struck a plea deal in his Florida DUI rollover crash case, pleading no contest to amended charges of willful, wanton reckless driving (second offense) and careless driving, each carrying a five-year concurrent driver's license suspension and a $1,000 fine.
- The plea deal resolves charges stemming from a March crash on Jupiter Island where Woods' Land Rover rolled over after clipping a truck; Woods admitted to being distracted by his phone and radio at the time.
- Despite passing a Breathalyzer test showing no alcohol, Woods refused a urine test, and deputies noted signs of impairment and found two pain pills on him.
- Woods had initially pleaded not guilty but entered the plea deal five months later, after seeking treatment at an inpatient facility and agreeing to allow prosecutors access to his medical and prescription records.
- Following his treatment, Woods made a public appearance in June to help introduce the PGA Tour's 2028 season schedule revamp.
