Judge orders Tiger Woods' prescription drug records released to prosecutors in Florida DUI case
A Florida judge ruled Tuesday that prosecutors can access Tiger Woods' prescription medication records from a Palm Beach pharmacy as part of his March 2024 DUI arrest investigation. Woods' defense team sought a protective order limiting disclosure to prosecutors and law enforcement only, which the judge also approved. Woods has pleaded not guilty to DUI charges stemming from a March rollover accident.
