Tiger Woods still battling with injuries
Tiger Woods says he has “zero issues” with his surgically repaired right ankle, but other injury problems remain.
The 47-year-old American has not competed since injury forced him to withdraw from the Masters third round in April.
Woods, a 15-time major winner, then had fusion surgery on a bone in his ankle to address post-traumatic arthritis from a previous fracture in the joint.
“That pain is completely gone,” Woods told the Associated Press.
“My ankle is fine. Where they fused my ankle, I have absolutely zero issue whatsoever.
“But all the surrounding areas are where I had all my problems and I still do. So you fix one, others have to become more hypermobile to get around it, and it can lead to some issues.”
Woods was seen caddying for his son Charlie at the Notah Begay III Junior Golf National Championship earlier this month.
“I’m pretty sore after caddying for four days,” Woods said. “It was a flat course, thank God.”—BBC
