JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods has what he calls a minor
knee injury and will miss the Wells Fargo Championship next week at
Quail Hollow. He hopes to return in a few weeks.
Woods says on his
website that he has mild sprains of a ligament in his left knee and
left Achilles’ tendon. He hurt himself while hitting from an awkward lie
on the 17th hole during the third round of the Masters. He continued to
play and wound up tied for fourth.
Woods says doctors advise rest
and therapy using cold water. Woods had planned to play the Wells Fargo
Championship and The Players Championship the following week.
