Judge grants prosecutors access to Tiger Woods' medical records
Fans cheer as Tiger Woods makes his way to the 11th tee during the third round of the Memorial Tournament on Saturday, June 1, 2019 at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio. [Joshua A. Bickel/Dispatch] Prosecutors in Tiger Woods' DUI case have been allowed to obtain hospital records connected to the golfer's medical treatment following his rollover crash in Jupiter Island, Fla.
Court documents revealed that prosecutors and Woods' defense team agreed to allow the State of Florida to request records from Clinic Martin South Hospital related to his hospitalization on March 27.
Per Golf Digest, the State Attorney's office filed a notice of its intent to subpoena Woods' medical history from the hospital, specifically seeking "any and all reports documenting statements of the patient regarding alcohol or chemical substances use" and "any and all drug screen results."
Martin County Judge Darren Steele signed the order on June 23, with the prosecutors and defense agreeing to limit the disclosures to only the State, their designated law enforcement officers and prosecution experts. The records must remain confidential and cannot be shared beyond those parties, per the order.
Woods' attorney previously challenged a request from prosecutors to subpoena the golfer's prescription drug records in April.
Woods, 50, has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor DUI charges following the two-vehicle crash.
Following the arrest, the 15-time major champion announced that he was stepping away from golf to seek treatment.
