PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Latest on Tiger Woods' DUI case (all times local):

2 p.m.

A Florida prosecutor says Tiger Woods has completed 50 hours of community service as part of a plea deal where he avoided going to jail after a driving under the influence arrest.

Prosecutor Dave Aronberg said Friday after Woods pleaded guilty to reckless driving that the superstar golfer did his community service through The Tiger Woods Foundation. Aronberg didn't say specifically what Woods did, but says it met the terms of the deal.

Aronberg says Woods was treated like any other defendant in his situation. He says Woods qualified for the diversion program in part because he had no prior record and was not involved in an accident.

Woods will be on probation for a year and a judge warned that if he violated it, he could face up to 90 days in jail.

Woods answered the judge's questions but did not make a statement.

Superstar golfer Tiger Woods has pleaded guilty to reckless driving and agreed to enter a diversion program to settle a charge of driving under the influence.

Woods entered the plea Friday in Palm Beach County, Florida. In the diversion program, Woods will spend a year on probation and pay a $250 fine and court costs. He also must attend DUI school, perform 20 hours of community service and attend a workshop where victims of impaired drivers detail how their lives were damaged. The judge indicated that he had already met those requirements.

Since he was intoxicated with prescription drugs and marijuana, he will also be required to undergo regular drug tests. He was arrested in May after being found passed out in his Mercedes.

Tiger Woods has arrived at a Florida courthouse to face a driving under the influence charge.

Woods is expected to plead guilty to reckless driving and agree to enter a diversion program. He arrived at the courthouse Friday in a sport utility vehicle. He was wearing sunglasses and a sport coat.

Police officers surrounded him as he walked down a hall in the courthouse.

Woods was arrested about 2 a.m. May 29 when officers found him unconscious in his Mercedes-Benz, which was parked awkwardly on the roadside and had damage to the driver's side. It's not clear how he damaged the car.

A toxicology report showed Woods had prescription drugs and marijuana in his system, but no alcohol.

In the diversion program, Woods will spend a year on probation and pay a $250 fine and court costs. Other requirements include attending DUI school, performing 20 hours of community service and attending a workshop where victims of impaired drivers detail how their lives were damaged.

His hearing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.
