Tiger Woods in Treatment Abroad as Prosecutors Seek Prescription Records

The inquiry now centers on whether prescription painkillers impaired him.

Overview

  • The golfer, arrested after a March 27 rollover near his Jupiter Island home, blew 0.00 on a breath test but refused a urine screen, according to deputies.
  • Investigators found two hydrocodone pills in his pocket at the scene, and a court filing shows prosecutors plan to subpoena pharmacy records for January through the day of the crash.
  • Woods has pleaded not guilty to DUI with property damage, refusal to submit to a lawful urine test, and careless driving, and he remains in court‑approved inpatient treatment overseas reported in Switzerland.
  • People reported he feels embarrassed and ashamed, while Vanessa Trump and his family have expressed support as he seeks care for long‑term pain from many surgeries.
  • The probe could hinge on dosing and drug warnings in those records, which in Florida can help establish drug‑related impairment and influence any license or criminal penalties.
