Michael Phelps Announces Return Following DUI

Olympian Michael Phelps announced he’ll be back in the water next month following the end of his USA Swimming suspension for a DUI he received in September. The Maryland native says he plans to swim in the Arena Pro Swim Series, a competition that starts April 15, nine days after his USA Swimming suspension is set to end. Phelps was originally suspended in September from all competition after getting his second DUI in Arizona. His sentence included a year of suspended jail time and 18 months of probation in which he was not allowed to drink alcohol. Phelps also served six weeks in an inpatient program in Arizona.
