Prosecutors have been granted permission to access Tiger Woods’ medical records in the case over his latest DUI arrest – but those notes will not be made public.

The verdict was reached Tuesday morning after a brief hearing in Martin County. Woods, 50, was not there – he is in rehab in Switzerland after his March 27 arrest.

His attorney, Douglas Duncan, wanted the records to be limited in terms of who was able to see them and insisted Woods has a right to privacy over his healthcare.

Both sides agreed on a protective order shielding them from public view.

Prosecutors have wanted access in order to find out if Woods was advised not to drive while taking prescription medicine for the various ailments he is fighting.

In 2025 alone, Woods had surgery on a torn Achilles followed by a seventh back procedure.

Woods agreed to a breathalyzer test that showed no signs of alcohol, but refused a urine test, authorities said.

The latest saga is the fourth time he has been in trouble after being behind the wheel of a car. 

He was arrested for another DUI in 2017 after police found him slumped in his car in Florida with five drugs in his system, including two painkillers.

Woods was later involved in a similar crash in 2021 in California, which shattered his right leg after he was trapped under the vehicle. 

He needed multiple surgeries in order to recover from his injuries, but didn’t face any charges and no blood test was ever conducted. 

He also crashed into a fire hydrant in November 2009 as he tried to flee his Florida home after wife Elin Nordegren discovered he had been having an affair.
