President Trump Reacts to Tiger Woods Having License Suspended, Says He Attempted Driving Intervention

Tiger Woods avoided a DUI conviction and accepted a five-year license suspension after pleading no contest in the rollover crash case, Trump said.

  • On Wednesday, pro golfer Tiger Woods pleaded no contest to reckless driving charges in Martin County, Florida, resolving his case stemming from a March rollover crash without jail time.
  • The March 27 accident on Jupiter Island resulted in charges of reckless driving and refusing a lawful test, leading Judge Darren Steele to order a five-year driver's license suspension and a $1,500 fine.
  • Speaking with FOX News reporter Peter Doocy on Wednesday, President Donald Trump called the resolution "very fair," citing Woods' chronic back pain and prescription medication use as complicating factors.
  • Trump added that he had previously urged Woods to hire a driver, while manager Mark Steinberg stated Woods is "continuing his treatment and prioritizing all aspects of his health."
  • Although suspended from driving, Woods remains permitted to operate golf carts under Florida law, as he continues an extended absence from competitive golf since the 2024 Open at Royal Troon.
