Tiger Woods has changed his plea in a Florida DUI case, admitting guilt to reckless driving, according to prosecutors. The golf star initially pleaded not guilty to charges including DUI with property damage and refusing a breathalyzer test. The incident occurred in March when Woods' Land Rover collided with a truck and rolled on its side on Jupiter Island.
The arrest report claims Woods was driving at a high speed on a 30 mph residential road and caused $5,000 in damage to the other vehicle. Despite registering a zero alcohol level on a Breathalyzer, Woods declined a urine test and admitted to taking prescription medication. He was arrested and later appeared in court at Martin County Courthouse, where he was seen smiling. Woods' legal team plans to hold a press conference later that day.
