Tiger Woods makes public appearance after five-year driving suspension

Two days after his DUI plea, former world No. 1 Tiger Woods returned to Stanford Stadium. It’s clear that the golfing great has not let the driving suspension get to him.

On Wednesday, Woods reached a plea agreement for his Florida DUI case. Following that, the 15-time major winner was spotted at Stanford University.

Woods made his first public appearance after the legal issues at Friday night’s American Football clash between Stanford and Miami.

As the Cardinal took on the Miami Hurricanes, Woods was pictured alongside American rapper Earl Tywone Stevens, better known by his stage name E-40, as shown on TWLegion’s X post.

Just days after his Stuart hearing, Woods’ Stanford appearance caught fans’ attention.

Although Stanford was thrashed 45-6 by Miami, the 50-year-old has handled the pressure really well after losing his driving license for five years.

Back in the fall of 1994, the former world No. 1 enrolled at Stanford under a golf scholarship.

During his two years at the university, Woods won 11 tournaments while studying economics.

Most notably, Woods clinched the 1996 NCAA individual championship and also earned First-Team All-American honors twice.

His return was all about good vibes, unlike his time at Stuart.

Despite losing his driver’s license, Woods will be able to drive a golf cart.

When questions arose about golf-cart eligibility, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis clarified.

“Tiger should be able to drive a golf cart on the golf course,” DeSantis posted on X.

Due to the plea agreement for his car accident on 27th March, Woods was handed a five-year suspension of his driving licence.

DeSantis had some good news for the golfing legend, as he now has a permit to drive golf carts.

Woods, now 50, is eligible to feature on the PGA Tour Champions. The senior circuit allows the use of golf carts, and Woods won’t be having any trouble if he makes his long-awaited competitive return there.
