Tiger Woods Reportedly Tackling ‘Intense Psychological’ Rehab Treatment After DUI Crash Left Him Feeling ‘Ashamed’

Although he has the option to leave the facility at any time, his treatment has been described as an “intense psychological” program. Woods has also followed parts of the The Masters Tournament remotely, an event he had hoped to compete in before his March 27 car accident in Florida.

The crash occurred when Woods’ vehicle collided with another car while attempting to overtake it, before rolling over.

Bodycam footage later showed him speaking calmly with officers, noting he had briefly looked down at his phone just before the crash. He also indicated that his participation in the tournament would depend on how events unfolded after the accident.

With Woods absent, his friend and fellow champ, Rory McIlroy, went on to secure another victory at the Masters. Meanwhile, his partner Vanessa’s daughter, Kai Trump, was among those seen attending the event.

Sources say Woods has only casually kept up with the tournament, choosing instead to prioritize his recovery.

He previously confirmed he would step back from golf to focus on treatment after the crash.

At the time of his arrest, no alcohol was detected, though Woods declined a urine test and admitted to taking prescription medication earlier in the day.

Police reports also noted the presence of hydrocodone pills. He has since pleaded not guilty to the DUI charge.

Prosecutors Seek Tiger Woods’ Prescription Records As Past Incidents Resurface Amid DUI Investigation

In a separate development, Woods is now facing growing legal scrutiny as prosecutors seek access to detailed records of his prescription medications tied to the case.

Court documents show investigators are requesting full prescribing details, including dosages and any warning labels about driving while under the influence of medication. The subpoena is expected to be formally issued on April 22, unless his legal team objects within a 10-day window.

If no challenge is filed, the records will be obtained as part of the ongoing investigation. Authorities say the request is central to building their case surrounding the circumstances of the crash.

Meanwhile, officers at the scene have already stated they believed Woods may have been impaired by an unknown substance affecting his “normal faculties,” based on their initial assessment after the crash.

This latest incident has also brought renewed attention to previous episodes in which Woods was investigated for suspected impairment.

In 2017, he was found asleep in a parked car about 15 miles from his Florida home, with toxicology reports later indicating multiple substances in his system, including prescription painkillers and sleep aids.

Earlier, in a 2009 crash, sleeping medication was also reported in his system, though that incident did not result in a DUI arrest.

Amid Woods’ latest ordeal, support has reportedly come from those closest to him, including his children Sam and Charlie, as well as his partner Vanessa.

Despite their support, insiders claim the situation remains challenging for the entire family, noting that Woods has been “living through a lot of pain and has been for enough years where it has taken a toll on his quality of life in addition to his golf game.”

Still, the golfer is said to be “committed now to getting better, however long that takes.”
