Tiger Woods plans to change his not guilty plea in the DUI case stemming from a rollover crash near his Florida home earlier this year, according to court documents filed on Tuesday.
The 50-year-old golf star is due to appear in Martin County circuit court at 8.30am on Wednesday for a change-of-plea hearing before judge Darren Steele. Woods had previously pleaded not guilty to charges of driving under the influence with property damage and refusing to submit to a lawful test.
The filing did not disclose what plea Woods intends to enter or provide further details about the expected change.

The charges stem from a 27 March crash in Hobe Sound, near Woods's residence on Jupiter Island. Martin County sheriff John Budensiek said Woods was driving a Land Rover that overturned after he attempted to overtake a truck on a narrow two-lane road shortly before 2pm.
