Tiger Woods says he won't be fully healed until 2010
2008-10-04
Tiger Woods says football players who have the kind of knee surgery that ended his season usually are not at their best for two years.

``Luckily, I don't play football,'' Woods said Monday.

Woods said his knee will probably be no more than 85 percent strong when he returns, but he sees no reason why he can't get back to the level of play that brought him nine victories in 12 official events this year, no finish worse than a tie for fifth.

#7  Tiger Woods says he won't be fully healed until 2010

Unless Obama performs the laying on of hands before then. HEAL!

#6  I'm a Phil Mickelson fan (local boy, does good works through charity, Like LaDainian), but I also appreciate Tiger's presence and talent. He's so good, that he pushes everyone else, like Phil, to concentrate and elevate their game. Get well, Tiger, take your time, the tour needs you

#5  I don't care for golf, and am sick of hearing about Tiger this, Tiger that, Tiger! Tiger! Tiger! all the time.

I hope he retires and takes the time to enjoy his wealth and family. And, G-d willing, I'll never have to hear his name on the news again.

But that's just me....

#4  He's one of those special atheletes. Ungodly talent, incredible work ethic, knife in the teeth competitive. If he waits until he's ready, and doesn't let the competitiveness make him jump the gun, I'll bet he picks up right where he left off.

#2  Tiger is playing mind games on the tour. They need him like Wall Street needs capital. He is the CBS and NBC golf coverage bail out plan. Plus Tiger at 85% is like all the other guys combined at their max plus some.

#1  I got that ugly Bo Jackson feeling about this. Wait, just damn wait. You got 20 years of playing at a minimum. Take another year off.
