Tiger Woods flew from Witham Field in Florida to Zurich, Switzerland, on May 23, touching down early May 24. His Gulfstream V made the 8-hour-48-minute journey just 11 days after returning from a 40-day rehabilitation stay at an exclusive Swiss facility following his March DUI arrest.

The same week, prosecutors won court access to Woods’ prescription medication records, as reported by TMZ and Page Six. The ruling allows them to review his drug history from January through late March, including the hydrocodone pills found in his pocket after the rollover crash. Woods faces charges of driving under the influence and refusing a urine test; he has pleaded not guilty.

Woods’ abrupt return to Switzerland—his second trip in a month—suggests ongoing treatment or legal preparations, though his camp has offered no public explanation. His girlfriend, Vanessa Trump, has reportedly set firm boundaries regarding his recovery, per sources cited by AOL. The next court hearing is scheduled for July 7.
