POLICY WIRE — Miami, USA — Golf legend Tiger Woods is expected to appear in court on Wednesday for a change of plea hearing related to his driving under the influence (DUI) case. This follows a serious car accident that occurred earlier this year.

Woods, aged 50, was initially charged with DUI after a rollover accident in Martin County, Florida, in March. He had previously entered a not guilty plea to the charges.

The professional golfer is now seeking to modify his plea during the upcoming court session. This development comes as Woods has been undergoing recovery treatment following the incident.

The hearing is scheduled to take place in Florida, where the accident happened. Woods’ legal team will present his revised plea to the court.
