FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence Wednesday, but has agreed to enter a diversion program that would see the charge dropped later this year.
Douglas Duncan, the attorney for the 41-year-old golf superstar, entered the plea. Woods did not appear at the Palm Beach County courthouse.
Prosecutor Adrienne Ellis said Woods has agreed to plead guilty to reckless driving at an Oct. 25 hearing and enter the county's program for first-time DUI offenders.
"He is not being treated any different than anyone else," Ellis said.
Duncan declined comment as he left the courthouse.
