Tiger Woods is fighting against Florida prosecutors' attempts to subpoena his prescription records following a DUI arrest after a rollover accident on Jupiter Island, Florida, last month. Officers described Woods as “lethargic” at the scene, and hydrocodone pills were found in his possession. Prosecutors filed a motion seeking prescription records from January 1, 2026, to March 27, 2026, the date of the crash, to gather information on prescribed medications, dosages, and warnings regarding driving. Woods has pleaded not guilty to DUI charges, and his attorney, Douglas Duncan, argues that Woods' right to privacy requires a hearing to determine the necessity of the subpoena. If the court grants the request, Duncan insists that the records should be kept confidential to protect Woods' privacy and not disclosed to third parties. Following the incident, Woods has withdrawn from public appearances, including the Masters, and has sought permission to leave the country for treatment.
