Prosecutors will be allowed to request Tiger Woods’ prescription drug records as part of Woods’ DUI case, according to TC Palm.

Following Woods’ rollover crash in March, in which he was charged with driving under the influence, Florida prosecutors filed a motion of intent to subpoena Woods to obtain his prescription drug records from a local pharmacy between the dates of Jan. 1, 2026 and March 27, 2026, the day of the crash. Woods’ attorneys requested a hearing to determine the necessity of subpoenaing those records. That hearing took place Tuesday where, after both sides “agreed on a protective order governing the use and release of the records to shield them from public view,” a judge ruled prosecutors will be allowed to request said records, according to TC Palm.

Woods was driving early in the afternoon of March 27 when he collided with the back of a pickup truck’s trailer. Woods’ car turned over on its driver’s side, and Woods was arrested on charges of DUI after appearing impaired and lethargic to responding officers. During his arrest, officers found two pills which were determined to be hydrocodone, an opioid narcotic typically prescribed for pain.
