Tiger Woods Charged With DUI After Florida Rollover Crash
Tiger Woods has been officially charged with driving under the influence after a rollover crash near his Jupiter, Florida home in March. He also faces a second charge for refusing to take a breath or urine test.
Tiger Woods was officially charged Tuesday with two criminal offenses stemming from a rollover crash in Martin County, Florida last month. The golf legend faces charges for driving under the influence and refusing to submit to chemical or physical testing of his breath or urine.
The crash happened in March near Woods' home in Jupiter, Florida. Details about what caused the rollover or Woods' condition at the time have not been released by authorities.
Woods is scheduled for arraignment on April 23, where he will enter a plea to the charges. This is not Woods' first brush with legal trouble - he previously faced a DUI charge in 2017 that was later reduced to reckless driving.
The charges come as Woods has been working to return to competitive golf after multiple back surgeries in recent years. He has not commented publicly on the latest charges.
This marks another legal trouble for one of golf's biggest stars, who has faced personal and professional setbacks before. DUI charges can carry serious penalties including license suspension and jail time.
Woods' arraignment is set for April 23 where he will enter a plea to both charges.
