Sports at a glance
STUART, Fla. — A judge ruled that Tiger Woods’ prescription drug records will be handed over to prosecutors following his March arrest in Florida on suspicion of driving under the influence.
A judge approved an agreement between Woods’ defense attorney and prosecutors following a four-minute hearing in Martin County circuit court. Prosecutors had issued a subpoena seeking copies of all prescription medication records for the legendary golfer from the start of the year through the end of March.
Woods’ attorney acknowledged during the hearing that the right to privacy is not absolute and that prosecutors could make a compelling argument for why they were needed. Prosecutors agreed to the defense attorney’s request for a protective order limiting who can access the records.
