Tiger Woods’ bid for a comeback could face a major hurdle after his DUI plea, with golf carts potentially off the table as he has been barred from driving a motor vehicle for five years
Tiger Woods’ eventual comeback bid hit a major snag after he changed his plea in his DUI case.
On Wednesday, Woods appeared before a judge at the Martin County Courthouse in Florida, and while he avoided jail time, the 15-time major winner had seen his license suspended for five years after reaching a last-minute plea deal in his DUI case. Earlier in the year, Woods flipped his Land Rover and landed on its side, and was found to have two hydrocodone pills in his pocket.
Originally, the 50-year-old pleaded not guilty and refused to submit to a lawful test. He later made a U-turn and pleaded guilty to reckless driving and careless driving, with Judge Daren Steele accepting Woods’ plea agreement, which amended the original DUI charge. It comes as Vanessa Trump joins Tiger in court but a body language expert noticed something odd.
