A court filing shows Florida authorities will issue a subpoena later this month for Tiger Woods' prescription drug records after his DUI arrest late last month. The subpoena will seek copies of any and all prescription medication on file for Eldrick T. Woods from Jan. 1, 2026 through March 27, 2026 at Lewis Pharmacy.
The filing goes far beyond a simple request for a list of drugs. It seeks the date and time each prescription was filled, the type of prescription, the number of pills in each prescription, the dosage amount, all special instructions, the date of the next refill and every warning, including whether he should operate a motor vehicle while taking the prescription.
Woods was arrested after field sobriety tests followed a two-vehicle crash in which his Range Rover turned onto its driver's side. Authorities said he blew “triple-zeroes” on a breathalyzer, but they still put him through the tests because of his “lethargic” movements and other signs of impairment. A deputy later said she believed Woods was under an “unknown substance.”

During the encounter, Woods told law enforcement he had undergone seven back surgeries and more than 20 operations on his leg, and said he takes a few prescription medications. He participated in four exercises before a deputy placed him in handcuffs. It was the second time Woods was arrested for driving under the influence; he had been taken into custody in 2017.
The subpoena underscores how the case is moving from an arrest scene into a paper trail that could test what Woods was taking and whether he had been warned about driving. That question sits beside his own statement on Tuesday, when he said he was stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on his health, calling it necessary to prioritize his well-being and work toward lasting recovery.

Bodycam footage captured Woods’ entire field sobriety test after the crash in Jupiter Island, Fla., adding another layer to a case already shaped by the contrast between a clean breathalyzer and the officers’ belief that something else was affecting him. The records subpoena now places his prescription history at the center of what comes next.
