Woods out for two months following knee surgery
Mon, 16 Dec, 2002 - 00:00

Fluid and benign cysts were removed from Woods' left knee during a one-hour operation by Dr Thomas Rosenberg in Park City, Utah, on Thursday.

Woods will start rehabilitation in about a week but because he may need about two months to recover completely, will miss the season-opening Mercedes Championship from January 9 in Hawaii.
