Question

When did tiger woods injure his knee? Was it a factor in the way he played at Augusta?

Answer 1

I don't think so.  Injuries always seem to come out when you are expected to win, like Roger Federer not winning the Australian tennis open when he complained of being ill or injured.

Answer 2

He's had knee problems for years... this is his third scope.

And... no, it wasn't a factor.

Answer 3

Losers always have an excuse!  Poor old Tigger.  He can't win so he has to have an excuse.   Waaa.... I am so upset!

Answer 4

He has need surgeries in the past one in 1994 and the other 2002. He has played through minor pain towards the end of last year and beginning of this year.  His injury is not an excuse because he lost the Masters, but rather this was a planned time to have the surgery so he could play in the Masters and be healed in time for the U.S. Open. They claim that it was not a factor because he obviously had no problem winning earlier in the year or at the end of last year. Below is a link to the story.
