'Golf Emperor' Tiger Woods (51), arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol (DUI), is engaged in a legal battle to prevent his prescription drug records from being disclosed to the Prosecution Service.

The UK 'Sun' reported on the 16th (local time), citing court records obtained by the US entertainment outlet 'People', that "Woods, who was arrested last month on DUI charges, is making every effort to block the Prosecution Service from obtaining his prescription drug records".

According to the report, Woods' legal representative, attorney Douglas Duncan, argued in an application submitted to the court on the 14th that "his client has a constitutional right to protect his privacy regarding his drug records". The Woods camp has already requested a protective order to prevent the information from being leaked to the public in case a court summons is issued.

Recently, Woods was arrested by police after his vehicle overturned in Palm Beach, Florida. He has been charged with DUI, property damage, and refusal to submit to testing, but is pleading not guilty to two misdemeanor charges.

Immediately after the accident, police reported finding two pills of hydrocodone, a narcotic painkiller, in Woods' pocket. It is also reported that Woods stated during police interrogation that he had taken various medications earlier that day.

According to the arrest affidavit, responding officers stated that Woods exhibited abnormal signs, including 'bloodshot and blurry eyes' and 'extremely dilated pupils'.

Bodycam footage from the incident, which captured the situation in full, shows Woods wearing sunglasses, kneeling by the roadside while being questioned. In the video, Woods told police "he was looking down at his phone when suddenly' he 'crashed" and said he crawled out through the passenger door to escape the vehicle.

Meanwhile, as a result of the accident, Woods has withdrawn from the Masters Tournament, a major golf event, and has currently left the United States for Switzerland for treatment.
