A Florida state judge granted prosecutors’ request to subpoena Tiger Woods’ prescription drug records during a Tuesday hearing following his March arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence, according to court records.
In the hearing in Martin County Circuit Court, Judge Darren Steele granted the state’s request to obtain the 15-time major champion’s prescription drug records on file at Lewis Pharmacy in Palm Beach, Florida.
The sides agreed Tuesday that a protective order will be issued, making Woods’ prescription drug records available only to prosecutors, law enforcement, expert witnesses and his defense team. The records won’t be available through state open records law and will be shielded from public view.
Woods is charged with misdemeanor DUI and refusal to submit to a lawful test and distracted driving, a moving violation.
Woods, 50, said in a statement after his arrest that he was stepping away from professional golf to seek treatment and focus on his health. It is believed that he entered a treatment facility in Switzerland earlier this month.
