Tiger Woods plead not guilty to the DUI charge stemming from his May 29 arrest in South Florida on Wednesday and will enter a pre-trial diversion program.

A Palm Beach County judge ordered a continuance of the hearing on Oct. 25, when it is expected Woods will plead guilty to the lesser charge of reckless driving, which is a second-degree misdemeanor and enter the diversion program.

Woods, who was not present for the hearing, will have to pay a $250 fine and court costs, attend a DUI school, perform 50 hours of community service and attend a DUI workshop as part of the program. He would also be subject to random drug and alcohol testing under the program.

Woods’ attorney Douglas Duncan declined to comment following the hearing.
